A good listen, some good questions and naturally, some insightful answers from JFH.

Is there a clue to January in the Cuvelier mention?

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink's main focus is the Brewers Burton Albion manager Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink says his main focus is the Brewers, despite speculation linking him with a number of clubs. The Brewers are fourth in the League One table, two points off the top. Hasselbaink told BBC Radio Derby: "It is other people putting me with those jobs and linking me. "I can only concentrate on Burton and make sure I do things the right way. My belief, my concentration is on Burton and that is the only thing I can do." www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/34843759?ns_mchannel=social&ns_campaign=bbc_match_of_the_day&ns_source=facebook&ns_linkname=sportre: Cuvelier, I don't think he has played since he scored the winner at Hartlepool and was subsequently injured.

Nov.17th - A year ago this week JFH managed his first game in The English League After One Full Season of 46 League matches 30 "League" games last season, 16 this season = 46 total, 29 wins(63%), 10 draws, 7 losses(15%), 20 Clean sheets (44%), 2.1ppg.
A pretty decent start I would say! COYB!!!

Some top notch managers could only dream of those stats at their relevant clubs right now.

In many ways I feel good riddance. Managers come and go. There are plenty more fish in the sea. So ---- off you go Jimmy and get on the merry go round of failure and disloyalty. You’ll be soon forgotten. Of course JFH has done very well, good results, a promotion and every chance of another. It is some achievement. He conducts himself well but he leaves a brief legacy, no more. He came to a stable club with realistic expectation. He inherited a really good squad of players from Rowett and Summerfield, well organised and committed. He still deserves praise for taking that on and developing. It could have gone wrong but it hasn’t, we have kept winning. On the downside, I don’t think we play attractive football and I’m not convinced by JFH’s moves in the transfer market, very average at best. The side still is very much a product of Rowett and Summerfield with El K for Maghoma. Good luck Jimmy but not a lot of loyalty from you............on to the next manager.

He did better than I expected
I have a feeling he's not going to be as good a manager as he thinks he is
He's got a great job though and opportunity. Club on fringe of playoffs having won last two games and good financial backing
If he is as good as he believes and the hype he should take them up - playoffs minimum
He could equally crash and burn
Warnock winning last two will put a bit of pressure on him as well

If and its a big if, JFH got QPR promoted this season he will have managed in all 4 leagues in less than 2 years, now that would be some achievement.

Doesn't take long for the knives to come out! On the similar angle Gaz wasn't our manager for a lot longer than Jimmy was, he left midseason for a club closer to home that would substantially increase his salary but no talk of unloyalty from him. What's the difference? Gaz didn't win anything whilst here, but he did get us to a playoff final and what a great day out that was! Jimmy took over and took us straight to a League Championship without a blip and up to a Level many would only dreamed of being possible. And Top of League One after 20 games, if anyone says they were expecting that I think they had better stand up. I think it is fair to say that none of us who were there have ever experienced Brewers games with the elation and absolute joy of the Morecombe (guaranteed promotion to L1) and Cambridge (League Champions) games last season. And we possibly may never experience that elation and absolute joy again. Thank you Jimmy and David!

It's fair to say Gary never claimed we were his Barcelona. Sounds a little bit hollow a few months later
I guess QPR must be his Bayern Munich
If he leaves them for a bigger job he won't have anyone left to compare to
That sounds a little bit bitchy
I think JFH became flavour of the month quicker than even he could have predicted
Good luck to him
Hope he does us a few favours if we need any with loans

No arguments from me about Jimmy going and trying his hand elsewhere. Just that he has (his) unfinished project still here. Anyways Mr Clough is here to carry that on, I wish him well, was sorry to see him leave for Derby. One other thing, I hope Jimmy goes on to even greater things and achieves his wishes. Don't want him to take QPR on that journey though, they don't deserve it.

Some of the comments above seem rather uncalled for. Football management is incredibly demanding and I see no reason why JFH should not go onto greater success. As Ben said in his radio interview it depends on whether he is allowed to manage without interference (seems unlikely from the way QPR seem to conduct their business) I cannot understand why anyone would not wish JFH or GR every success and want to see them progress. They certainly gave their all to the club and talk of loyalty/disloyalty is irrelevant. I would much rather managers move on because things are going well than the alternative! Where is the loyalty from clubs/fans then when things are not working out?
Also just to make the point that GR played for the club and was employed as assistant manager or manager from May 2009 - October 2014. That is a much longer history with Burton, certainly in football terms. As far as I am aware GR lives in Duffield (as does Cloughie) so he was not moving to Birmingham to be closer to home.
Some of this nitpicking needs to be put to one side.
I also thought it was very interesting in Ben's interview that he said he had read comments from supporters about JFH's departure and was disappointed in them. He stated that he is willing to listen to supporters but does not allow their views to influence his decisions. Thank goodness that he remains calm and has the big picture in mind.

I agree, there us no need to be saying stuff like that two days after he has gone. I cannot recall any such remarks when he was here winning 64% of the games he managed.
A couple of your comments are directed at my comments. To be fair I was talking about being our manager and there is not much difference (call that nitpicking if you will, but if he gets credit for being AM he also has to share the blame that Pesch got slated for). and I thought Gaz lived in Bromsgrove? The fact that Gaz never won anything is not a criticism, for me at least, it's a fact.
Personally, I have never said anything untoward about any of our managers, or wished any manager anything but success...ant that includes Nigel, Pesch, Gaz and Jimmy.

Hi Peacock, I knew you would be in agreement with the bulk of what I said and I must say your positivity is one of your strengths. I was simply trying to illustrate that GR has a long connection with the club, not saying who takes credit (or discredit) for this or that. He was manager in effect from March 2012 to October 2014 which is more than double the time JFH was at the helm. More's the pity! I think the confusion is that GR was born in Bromsgrove, but he certainly doesn't live there. On the whole we all have a lot to be grateful for at Burton. Let's hope that we can continue to appreciate what we have and enjoy because what we have witnessed so far has been incredible.

I think I've read somewhere today that in last 20 years Burton have only ever sacked one manager
That's an incredible stat if it's correct?
