I dont think you'll get an answer out of him and its just ridiculous to suggest that Appleton should go.
The guy has only been here a few months and he is on a mission to change things and must be given fair and sufficient time to get the players he wants and we can afford to try and mould his own successful team.
Yeah we may have horse shit games like today and I will be the first to criticise but I also understand as a manager you have situations out of your control and that it takes more than a just a few months to see the green shoots of your own particular football ethos take shape.
Of course some managers dont get it right but they have to be given a fair crack of the whip so that they can be judged fairly and squarely on the players that have been brought in, the style of play and ultimately league position.
We can give our opinions all we like but there is only one person with his neck on the line and he doesn't bullshit and told it how it was today, he knows that wasnt good enough.
For me as a minimum he gets the next summer window to evolve the squad and I think we evaluate where we are in November time. That still may not be enough time but if things aren't stabilized and moving forward by then there will be plenty of disgruntled voices screaming for his head and that's the time the board will have to make a decision in the best interests of the club.
