I do think that fans need to stop tacking on the end of last season to Sparky's stats. He came in to a situation where the whole squad was totally demoralised and had a pretty tough fixture list to negotiate. Going into the last few matches I had us at about a 20% chance of staying up and couldn't see where we would get the mental strength for the two wins that were a must to stand any chance.
This season was always a clean slate for me, with new players to bed in and a full pre-season and we have played less than ten league games and are still in the EFL Cup. Obviously if we are still only picking up an average of .66 of a point every match by Xmas then the situation needs to be reviewed.
