Jump back on the managerial merry-go-round again, looking for a manager who in all honesty probably isn't going to get us any higher in the league than we are at this point? Let's see what Tam can do with another year under his managerial belt. With hopefully a couple of decent strikers. With a January window where he doesn't have to sell half the squad. My big concern at the start of the season was would he have the cahonies to turn it around if things went t!ts up and he did. It took a while, but he turned it around. I'm happy to stick with him and see what he can do in the summer and beyond.
I'm not a great lover of all these extraneous appts but perhaps a Director of Football, may compliment Tam's coaching. I was not over enamoured with the initial appt of Tam; but credit where its due, like the football or not, he has to be given credit as does Liam Fox for reaching top 6 and potentially beyond. Ogren and Ashgar backing cannot be overlooked either, although the latter appears to be a marmite character. As long as Utd continue to improve and hopefully prosper; i'll support whoever is in the chair (within reason) and it will always be Utd for me even if we end up nose diving!
