Absolutely no chance they will sack Ardley any time soon. Firstly the first season under their ownership he has massively over achieved on their target. Secondly and more importantly is they want to run the club in a methodical and stats driven way which Ardley has always been an advocate of.
Can you imagine some of the old school managers sitting with their stats guy analysing the games, mad dog or sheridan come to mind, it would be a car crash. They will keep him or fire him on stats of the games and probably less so the results (we not results in the short term). Very rarely do you get owners and managers happy working together, the last for us probably Warnock and Pavis and that brought success, well till he sacked him, which was a mistake.
