Go - I don't like his football or him as a man. I don't see him as a longer term option.
However, it really depends on who we replace him with. I can a similar season next year with him in charge, possibly a bit better if we can sign a competent centre forward. But it won't be pretty and it would have little charm or excitement.
The evolution of the squad this season in terms of depth and quality has been pretty good, I'm not sure if that is credit to Bulut of the management above him. However, the club also has their best crop pf youngsters for a generation and their development has stalled, even regressed.
There are some on here that clearly don't give a damn about the latter, even appear to resent local players; however even if you dismiss it's benefit to the 'soul' of the club as romanticism, it is essential for any modern football club, as a business, that they generate a profit from their academy - look at Man City, it is the only thing saving them from FFP censure.
The normal saving grace of a season of safety and mid table mediocrity is the unearthing of a couple of youngsters, to excite and offer hope. We have had the opposite.
