But there is no guarantee that sacking a manager will guarantee to stay up. Did not with us or Rovers (technically moved upstairs). Or Fulham. or Cardiff. Or Shrewsbury. Or Stevenage. Or Tranmere. Or Carlisle. Or Barnsley.
I Stand to be corrected but of the 12 teams that will be relegated across the divisions, 10 have changed their manager.

If that's what you took my post to mean, then best of luck to you.

Should also have pointed out that the highlighted bit here, despite your attempts to convince us otherwise, isn't anything like a fact. Maybe ask for a dictionary for your next birthday.

What? If you like appalling language and terrible jokes, please follow me on Twitter @ferrariF50lover. Hiding on social media is an oxymoron. Social media is a method of exposing ourselves (ooh eer) to others more freely. Those who wish to hide don't use it. Ask yourself this, did Osama bin Laden have a Twitter account?

My post is clearly a defence of the Board. It's based on knowledge and some limited logical extrapolation. I've taken another look at it and it is impossible to misconstrue the meaning of what I've said. We must conclude, therefore, that you're an idiot, incapable of understanding very basic written concepts. Shame.

I get a load of old flannel directed towards me and I respond to it in a pretty gentle manner. You turn up and wade into a fight which has **** all to do with you... and I'm acting like a prick?
What colour is the sun on your planet?

What you can guarantee though, is that staying with a shit one is more likely to get you relegated. Knill was sacked 3 months too late. By then it was too late.

More nonsense from the King of Knill bashers. Hargreaves had more than enough time to turn our fortunes around as Knill and Wilder proved at Northampton.

Wilder, remember, he is the manager - not Knill, had a bit more money to change things around. Nobody is claiming Hargreaves did a good job but he did a better one than the man who built our hopeless team and left the playing side in such a shambles.

...well, then if what goes round comes around, Alan Knill better remain mindful, because it is
because of him that we are down. I don't expect it will be too long before he adds, yet another, sacking to his CV, that is, if anyone is ever stupid enough to make him manager again.

Stefano, the case against Mr Knill is summed up in three words: Hawkey, Harding and Tonge. A fine legacy for his successor, like tying up CH's hands in chains. Yes, I know that CH signed Danny, but the cost of his daily dinner money is somewhat outstripped by the wages that we have to pay the above three contributors to our relegation.

I feel like I want to stand up for Harding on two grounds (he barely played and he was pretty good just before his injury), but I'm a bit busy at the minute and don't think I'd do it justice.
