I hope he's coming for that reason and not just to soak up some plaudits for the back to blue decision.
Just been looking at where we are and those around us in the Championship. Let's face it, and with no disrespect intended at all to Reading, the cup this weekend is a sideshow in the real scheme of things.
With Fulham, Brighton and Leeds all winning their games this midweek against good opposition whilst we lost ours, they've edged closer. Birmingham have got above us, Fulham are level on points with us, and a decent result for Bolton in their game in hand will put them in front of us as well. The next three teams below us still have that game in hand and could also make up ground.
Now if we get nothing from the Derby game next week that Tan is attending (highly probable), we could be right in the ****. How it's changed from initially targeting an auto spot to then chasing a playoff place, now we're descending into the relgation maelstrom for the run in. I've said on another thread that we're very lucky that the current bottom 3 are becoming detached.
All along we're told by Slade to give him time. Time is something we'll have a lot of in League One if those below us start putting runs together. Time to reflect on the crap management of the club by the last two managers and the people responsible for appointing them. Tan shouldn't just front this out - he should admit to another mistake in Slade. I doubt he'll come over to attend many League One games.
Sorry for the length of my reply whiffle........
