I hope I am proven wrong and I will get behind him. It's just that we can remember the negative, boring football that was played last time he managed us. We pay good money and expect to be entertained. It's not felt like that for a long time.

As much as i disagree with his appointment i can see some degree of logic

Regarding lack of managerial success, had he not left i believe he would have achieved a 3rd place finish in his first full season

His tactics are boring but see last comment and also the goals scored against us that season. He would have probably delivered a midfield the folllwing season and added attacking options.

Returning managers... Disagree, mickey mellon for one.

Loyalty... There isnt any in football. Understand why he left, he acknowledges his return is a sensitive issue. Board need to hold steady on any potential contract extension until summer. He needs to earn it. I would argue a finish of 10th place is achievable.
