I don't see what John Nelms is thinking about with this appointment. Very few posters even give a wait and see tone to their comments.
Same finish as this season isn't progress. Anything between 10th and 7th at Christmas is failure, anything below 10th at Christmas is abject failure and instant dismissal. Only top six is acceptable.

If the unthinkable happens then this has to be the last appointment Nelmsy makes before the fans turn fully on him - they've already started to turn with this appointment.
