I see some fans have started to panic. On social media supporters start asking for McClarens head if we extend our loosing run to 7, 8 or 9 matches, which admittedly in not unrealistic, giving the tough opponents coming up over the next week and a half. A poster was just claiming McClaren has lost the dressing room (The “MacClaren out” post from dogsrrs” earlier today). It is nonsense of course, and the sort of BS and panicking we simply don’t need.
I think this is the time we unite behind McClaren and the team. We have a habit of changing managers all too frequent, adding to the instability of the club. I don’t think McClaren is the problem. We have a squad that is probably not much better than where we are right now. It was a mistake to fire Holloway and we don’t need to repeat the mistake by firing McClaren just because he goes on a losing run of 6, 7, 8 or 9 matches.
If you told me prior to the season we would have 39 points after 32 matches I would be over the moon. I was very skeptical when we signed McClaren, but he has won me over. I don’t think we would do any better with another change of manager, given the candidates we could afford.
If McClaren keeps us up he has done a very good job. Holloway obviously did a great job, beating relegation by a healthy 15 points margin. I think it will be much closer this year, but I have no doubt we will get the necessary points on board to stay up. Despite being the only team in the league without a league win in 2019 I have seen enough to convince me we will not get relegated.
