It's a poor example, Chelsea went from 1st to 15th under Mourinho.
We went from about 19 last season to 8th now.
A complete contrast
Not saying we are, what I was trying to say was if we were mid table, he could have sold this line and people would have accepted it and therefore no talk of sacking him. The fact that he exceeded expectations initially is clearly his downfallHow are we creating stability? 6-7 of the starters most likely won't be here next season.
Cargill, Stephens, Maddison, Fleck, Armstrong, Murphy and probably Cole and Ricketts too.
We'll need an entire new team next season.

That's exactly it, if he took us out of relegation last season makes changes. Then gets us between 12th to 8th this season. People would see it as steady progress and would be looking forward to next season.
However because he has got us to the top of the table against most people expectations. 7th currently to many feels like a massive failure.
He was brought here to get us to the top.
We had all this In Mowbray we trust and our owners have done a good thing should lick their boots.
So if that was not the reason, was he brought here just to fill a gap?

I'm starting to wonder why he took the job.<snip> .
Every manager is brought in to get us promotion. Since we were relegated to the third tier.
So far how how they done?
If the CEO was correct before the season started our budget is 8th to 6th. Because of our inability to earn all year round. That is our budget. Previously it was stated anything over 11k increases that. Now it is 14k.
So even with the confusion created by the Maddison sale it looks like it is 6th to 8th.
We are currently 7th.
Anything below 8th is a slight under performance
6th is doing the best you could with the budget.
7th is good going.
I would say 14th or below depending on circumstances = sack
It's why I find the current tone utterly bizarre.
If predictable.
He wasn't the second coming when he turned up, and he's not the antichrist now.

He's not the antichrist, he's just a very ineffectual manager.
We either roll the dice again, or we accept mid table L1 is our place and settle in for a few decades of mediocrity. We all hoped he'd learned how to sustain a team for a season, he obviously hasn't. Next.
