Please take this as well-meant from a supporter of the worst team in the country -

UP isn't the only direction available when you change manager.

All managers are perfectly designed to see the game differently from all supporters. They've been trained to see the game in a way we haven't for 20 years or more. We see THEM as stuck in the mud, but the players are undergoing the same training and see things exactly the same way. Occasionally you'll find a manager who really changes things, but mostly it's a like-for-like swap and you might as well have saved yourself the compensation payment. (Two successive play-offs looks brilliant from the standpoint of the Vanarama looming next season.)
