Looking at the table now we are 5 points ahead but played a game more than most. Another day like yesterday (quite possible) and we could slip 6 places easily.
Some of the teams haunted by relegation all season are a couple of points behind us. We are not yet safe and wouldn't have picked up another point with warnock in charge. Now if Naylor is given a chance for the last 6 games (academy is finished now isn't it??) we could have the benefit of a fan in charge, a bit of passion, players fired up. We wouldn't have lost yesterday because a motivated fired up defender would have been first to that penalty rebound. He would get 6 games to get a taste for the job, the academy kids would learn more from him and in a couple of years he could become a candidate for the job once McDermott/ O'Neill etc.. are sacked with us in 12th in the championship. As for permanent boss, with Adkins gone there is no outstanding candidate Sent from my iPad On 2 Apr 2013, at 09:54, "Guy Thornton" <[email protected]> wrote: > You want colours nailed to masts (I thought towels thrown into rings is a > sign of giving up)? > > The Special One keeps giving signs saying how much he'd love to come back to > english football. > Let's thing big and go for him.
