How wrong was I

[CornishForest]

I posted earlier this week that Postecoglou was 2nd in the list of bookies' favourites to be next manager sacked, behind Amorim. In fact, he is now first. I have heard that it would be extremely expensive to sack Amorim in October as opposed to November, so that might be part of it. But nevertheless, the fact that a new manager is assessed by those with financial interests in this is in such a poor position so quickly must be close to unprecedented.

It was an unprecedented decision to appoint him.

Amorim is a vanity hire and a very expensive one at that. Ratcliffe is saying he deserves a full season so unless they collapse he will still be there in the summer unless he resigns.
