Worst case scenario

We are not going down.

If we did hypothetically I'd still stick with Warburton. It is 10 years now since we saw a positive impact from changing manager, why start that annual cycle yet again?

Warburton is not to blame for not having a clinical goalscorer and not to blame for the club deciding to cut their losses for this season. He'd no doubt love to spend £15 million and make us challenge for the title.

He made a profit in the transfer market, we spent next to nothing and we have ended up exactly where we were before. I don't see why Waburton is being questioned so much (not just here but by the fanbase in general). We got off to a pretty fantastic start this season and expectations must have changed. Before the season the vast majority of us predicted a bottom half finish.

That is where we are. That is where we will finish. Warburton deserves another transfer window and another season at least.

I do agree we are probably going to drift to a dangerous position this season but can't see how we won't pick up another 2 wins or even a win and 3/4 draws.

Plus other teams are out there struggling as much as us. I expect Huddersfield and Stoke will finish above us, so we will probably end up 19th or 20th unless we really find a good bit of form.

It is hard to criticise Warburton too much though because I'm not sure what any manager could do losing their best striker and with such limited resources overall.

Not going down and stick with him, I'm so bored of the manager merry go round.....

I’ll happily eat my words
The 0-0 at Swansea and the comeback from 2-0 down with stoke was a end of season changer in my opinion
We Could of really got dragged in to a relegation battle if we wasn’t careful and were still not safe yet you know 😆
