So he admits sacking Nico was a knee jerk reaction and there was no plan in place afterwards, and that Owers and Harrop will certainly be in charge next season despite relegation and such a godawful record. Absolutely damning. I just can't find the words to describe the anger over this.
Listened to the thoughts of the fans after the Osbourne interview and I was baffled at the two who thought that Owers was without a doubt the man to take us forward next season, that he's done a good job this season, and what were we expecting from him? Maybe not to take us down, maybe not replace the entire team twice over. I mean that would be a start. It just beggars belief that people can give this kind of support at this stage.
Doesn't surprise me that he said that, the fact it took them a month to find another manager when clubs in similar positions appointed in the week, told you all you needed to know about how prepared the club was for his sacking. Also how inexperienced Harrop was in appointing a manager and how unsuited he is for a General Manager role.
There's a pretty strong argument that it was that month without a manager which has relegated us rather than Nicholson's awful recruitment and Owers' unachievement. If we'd picked up a couple of wins in that month of drift, we'd have been in a strong position to stay up.
