No he hasn't.
He has inherited (on the whole) a team that reached 4th in the league last season.
The additions Hughes made looked good on the whole (Hooper, Redmond, Harris) but have failed to deliver..most likely due to the system we are playing (Blame Darlington for that I would say).
Keates has taken this team and IMO made it perform worse despite recent victories.
he has added quality in Kennedy, Patrick and Horsfield (unfortunate injury) but is not getting the best out of the existing players,.
I'm now of the opinion that only the removal of Keates, Davies and Darlington and the appointment of a proper coaching team will save this season.
