I wouldn't have sacked him at the end of that season, but if others would, fair enough. The be talking about it NOW makes no sense to me. Recent performance is much more relevant. Last season we were very close to going up, despite the club chaos barely having ended in time for pre season. This season I expect us to be there or thereabouts.
1. He was in charge for more than half a season
2. He got less points per game than one of the other managers
3. He signed a whole team in January, his team.
4. He got significantly less points than a rookie manager whose players weren’t being paid, and who could barely sign anyone.

He isn’t the whole reason we were relegated. But to ignore his part would just be daft. His negative approach and the fact the team rarely came out of the blocks firing had more to do with us dropping points in the games he was in charge than anything else.

Why is it relevant now? Which league are we in?
