Surely

By how this board is running the club, the answer is not likely. Imagine your a decent manager/head coach and on the final interview you get told by the board right the terms and conditions of the contract is;

• you have to play 3-5-2 because under no circumstances are we signing wide players.
• you can have a say in your preferred players we are recruiting but the final say is upto the board and your say maybe taken in to consideration.
•we want to put a contract release clause in your contract so if you do well here we can make money off you because we will not try and keep you.
• the players we recruit haven’t played a pre season and will likely take 6 months to get match fit, also we do like the loan market and the players we get on loan will be in positions we already have ample players for.

 

I think Bolton away but in particular Wrexham at home will be pivotal, another battering at home may prove too much, there's losing and then there's losing, a cut off point may be reached where future confidence with any Jan investment however small maybe reached.
It's all pure guess work but they look at writing the season off and letting someone come in to start the clearout ahead of the summer with the remit of can you get us to 55pts with what's already here.

 

Stick or twist time really. If we haven't won again after Crawley then I think there is a decision to make. About players as well - why loan out Yoganathan for example if we are heading for mid table? Get him starting for 10-15 games with pressure off to an extent. To be thinking about top 6 we need 9 minimum from these next 4 games. Anything else chalk it off, plan for next season and give young uns some game time.
