I know it seems that I am stubbornly in favour of Mick and won't listen to anything said against him. I have been trying to put myself in the "other camp" for the last few days but I keep coming back to these points:
- He is the best manager we've had for some time, at least in terms of the success he's brought the club. - With the side we have I think he's about on par. Could another manager punch further above our current weight? Possibly, but I think it's unsustainable in the long term. Roy will be an intersting one to watch next season. - We still have a side that is 50% the same as the one that won the championship. It's hard to argue that the team should be doing better on those grounds - I also think Mick gets more out of the team than they actually have in terms of quality. The team seem to like him very much. - We've beaten some very good teams. The number we have beaten makes it very hard to put down to fluke. I think we have looked really good at times. - Despite appearing to make bad decisions in selection, I have to assume that he knows more about it than anyone else. This next season is probably do or die though. I assume that we'll buy O'Hara plus a couple of other players, such as a left back and a central defender. That will remove some more of the championship team. It wil still be a low wage side though Lee do you fancy a bet on the position of Wolves and Albion next season? Same consequences as my bet with Marcus this season. I bet that Wolves will finish above Albion.
