It’s eight matches to be fair - the away games count too. And for me, they are an important part of the assessment: our performances whether we win or lose have been very poor
Agreed but performances to a degree can be forgiven for results. I thought Blackburn, Portsmouth and Watford were ok overall
If I’m totally honest, I didn’t think they really were “ok”, despite results. And OK away performances isn’t good enough to keep a job when the home performances are diabolical. Blackburn outplayed us and we certainly wouldn’t have won had it not been for the red card. Portsmouth was good first half but we collapsed and were lucky to hold on. Watford was probably the best (from memory) but still a poorer second half.
One more game If he manages us to a loss against the Binners for the first time in forever, imagine the crowd in our next home match against his former club…
If Liam Manning is fired this early, the moron that offered him a 4 year contract should go too. God help us if there isn't a "**** performance" clause in that paperwork.
