Not true actually, the foreign window was closed on the 3rd October and he was appointed a few days after. He had around 10 days to sign any new players. We know they got screwed by Grosicki again too.
At this point Grabban was just off the back of a very good season and we had the recently signed and highly rated Taylor.
So you expected him to come and criticise the team after the window? Criticise his new employers for not making enough signings? Great way to start a new role where the team were massively lacking in confidence. Please let me know when I can sign up to your motivational classes...
Well, whatever he did, his motivational Class did not inspire the squad, remind you all, the worst win rate of any manager for a long time.
I critised the squad after that summer window, no hidsight from me, i said we would struggle. Where was is key striker lined up for Janaury?
How many of our managers joined on the back of 100% losing start? Or with our 5/6 best players from the previous season either injured, sold or released?
What possible reason do you have for thinking that sacking him will dramatically change our team? We'll just have another manager that needs time to get to know the squad then brings in a load of new players and we finish in the same position. Also, are you paying his severance package? That's another player we wouldn't be able to sign in exchange I imagine
