SR I can’t be arsed to get into this with you again but obviously, lots of reasons.

Glasner has an excellent record. Has won more at one club than we have in 20 years. Has a history of starting slowly and whether or not you regard his Premier League record as elite, he has always finished comfortably clear of relegation.

It would be stupid to sack him now and I think it’s mad you want us to go back to being a circus club that sacks managers after 5 minutes. No successful outfit functions like that.

But you want me to admit we were poor today? Fine. I am very happy to do that.

I’m no happier than you are that we are in the relegation zone but we just have to accept short term pain for long term gain.
