... we’re going to be fighting a relegation battle. I just don’t think McPake can cut it. There clearly are financial constraints around changing management at this point, but it might be that those constraints need to be balanced against the possibility of spending the season in the bottom 4 - which I think is looking increasingly likely.

I kind of get the impression that McPake was hoping that having Charlie would bail him out, but that’s not going to be the case.
