Sorry in advance for being a broken record but the Glazers writ off this season when they decided to stick with Ole after it became inevitable it wasn’t going to work (IMO after The final defeat to Villarreal but of course it’s debatable)There are repercussions for not being pro active and we are experiencing that now.
I make that point only to say that Ralf deserves this 6 month period without being judged on wether he makes top 4. Yes it is still possible but he has been handicapped by starting from a losing position. Plus, it has been from a standing start with no pre season, as well as it being a new country for him.
I am as frustrated as anyone else that we might not make top 4 but I will put all blame at the Glazers door step if that happens. In the same respect, if we make top 4 then I will give them credit for making the right decision (although slightly delayed it’s never too late to make the right choice).
