The Coventry, Wycombe and Derby defeats were utterly dreadful. The Swansea defeat was depressing in seeing the gulf in class to a team that finished behind us last season.
The harsh reality is that it wasn't going to improve without a different approach and the board were therefore right in their decision.
I wish you well and hope you can find another job in football as he seems a decent fella
Harris is going to spend the next 20 years making upwards of £250K. He'll be fine.

I very much doubt that. He's going to struggle to get a Champ job next and if he doesn't crack his next job, he'll probably be done.

Win rate is a strange statistic. As you say, 40+% is decent. PPG would a much better indicator. But even then, one bad season (like being relegated from the PL - or a couple of seasons struggling in the PL) can screw that up.

Alan Cork has a win rate of nearly 49% and yet he wasn't very good! Slade had a win rate of 39.2% which is close to Warnock, Mackay, Jones etc.

Great news, wrong manager from day one. I have nothing postive to say about him or his appointment.

It was nowhere near enough this time round. If this wasn't sorted out he could well have taken us down.
You should put your CV into Wayne Nash youre very good at moving the goalposts.
