I have to agree that we are already down. I also agree Jack's job was extraordinarily difficult and that even recruitment was likely to be a problem with the club in such a perilous state .......... but the evidence so far that of ten players recruited none is showing real form is more than disconcerting. I honestly think if you'd let me recruit ten non-leaguers to supplement our squad two or three would have been successes by now. If they'd have let any of you pick from EFL players wanting to move, don't you think you'd have done better than Jack too? I do.

With the right support Jack could take us back into the league, despite this season's failure, but as Dancing points out we started throwing away our league status when we didn't finance Danny. He made mistakes, but so do all managers. Jack would need the backing Danny never had and upon which neither Saunders, nor GC could properly rely either. The manager almost always needs a functioning club behind him - short-term a manager can occasionally succeed despite the club, but eventually either the club will pull the manager down, or the club will come together to meet the manager's aspirations. Though I'd like to sack Tommy Wright, a much more effective option would be massive changes behind the scenes.
