SCIAG I'll get in early.
Hunt is a very good coach. When you watch him leading warm-ups, it's clear he has a good relationship with the players. He's enthusiastic while also being serious. Gives players good tips on how to use their bodies or what to do with their first touch.
I don't think he's got a tactical bone in his body. Some of this is maybe that young players aren't as good at following tactical plans, although we've had well-drilled young teams in the past. And this season the U21s have been just as starved of players as the first team, often playing with no recognised striker and a midfielder at right-back out of necessity. And I thought he seemed out-of-his-depth last time he had the job - much like Marshall and Kuhl (both of whom I'd say were better tactically but not as good man-to-man).
Tactical strengths: he loudly says the right things defensively. Weaknesses: build up and breaking teams down. In fairness, he'll have better midfield options now, and Smith is obviously much better than Wareham.
Beggars can't be choosers, he was the obvious choice, and plenty of such gambles have paid off for other clubs. Heck, Pardew and McDermott both made the same leap. But I'm pessimistic.
Best of luck to him, Royals legend either way.

Presumably we were paying Ruben and his staff.
