The Wyvern

I'm not suggesting its an exact science, or that I can remember the quality of performances from 25 years ago to be honest, but I am racking my brains to think of a manager that has shown so little first up and then turned it around. I thought we were abysmal in the first half on Sunday, unacceptably so. The "final squad"/"derby" is meaningless to me, every game and every manager works within some kind of constraint or other. I don't expect us to win every game or even play well every game, I did expect much more from Still than we've seen to date though. I want him to do well, I like the bloke, much more than Martin. Got to see some significant improvement at Hull on Saturday.

Then surely there should be someone looking after him? And stopping him behaving like this. Its not a good look for him or the club, so hopefully someone has a quiet word at some point.

My concern with Still and his poor start is that if we look through every manager we've had in say the last 20 years I think its safe to say we've known if they're going to be good or bad once we're 7 games in. I can't think of any managers that have looked poor at the start and turned out well or vice versa. What we got at the start, we got for the rest of the time with the club. Not looking good for Still on that basis.
