Would would save Mick on Saturday?
A win?
A convincing win?
A draw?
Another "encouraging" performance even if we lose?
Actually scoring a goal?
Anything, because they're not actually going to sack him whatever happens?

I fear it could be the bottom. I fear we cant replace him due to finances.
I cant think of any reason hes still at the club.
Virtually the whole fan base wants him out.

A fundamental change in employment law that would prevent anyone being "let go' before retirement.

If we turned into Barcelona from about 2010.

He'll be here until the international break regardless

Re: Would would save Mick on Saturday?
I wonder if a lot is in play , player under performances , pay out of MM contract , potential extra costs of new managers /coaches ,funds for new players every new manager wants , in the background is a £15 million Sala transfer liability hanging over the club and the impact Covid had on the revneues and FFP.

A thumping win against middlesborough - even then it's only a maybe.

Re: Would would save Mick on Saturday?
I suspect a loss might be enough for him to go with maybe some reduced settlement. To be honest that would be the best result for Cardiff.

Lets try and keep this post serious .

Re: Would would save Mick on Saturday?
I think avoiding defeat.
They clearly feel he still has something to offer or he would have left after WBA, certainly after Swansea.
The board are also conscious of the financial outlay but that can only be a primary concern if they don't actually feel we are being relegated.
Personally the team has relegation with a whimper all over it at the moment and I'd be concerned that each week this goes on the harder it will be for a new manager to fully turn it around.
Letting in goals for days, not scoring, no goal in first half, one goal against basically ends us, no one is confident, lack of leaders beyond the captain who has been well out of form himself.
The last point is annoying as for a few seasons we had loads.

Re: Would would save Mick on Saturday?
IMHO his position with the vast majority of the fanbase was untenable the moment he picked 5 centre backs for a HOME game.
Completely unforgiveable even before then shipping four goals!

Re: Would would save Mick on Saturday?
I still feel he's the man to lead us to 20th....
In league one

I think deep down he knows he has nothing more to offer Cardiff and should resign he is just hanging on to be sacked and receive a huge settlement. The honourable thing to do would be to resign with a much reduced settlement agreed with the board.

Re: Would would save Mick on Saturday?
I'm wondering if in these talks MM had with Tan, did he say, give me two more games and if i fail, I'll leave by mutual agreement, still poses 2 questions.
What constitutes fail, has to be minimum of 2 draws or a win
How much is the mutual agreement worth

if we had messi and ronald they'd be stuck in the back five

Re: Would would save Mick on Saturday?
Nothing should save him, absolutely nothing. I’m not an advocate of sacking anyone but he’s burying himself here. Even if we win 3-0 it proves nothing.

Re: Would would save Mick on Saturday?
It just seems that the inevitable conclusion to this sorry saga has no definitive end point, even though we get closer to it every day.

Re: Would would save Mick on Saturday?
Save him from what? Getting the sack this weekend? Waking up should do it. By the sound of things, as long as he still has a pulse he still has a job.

Re: Would would save Mick on Saturday?
The way we've totally changed our approach from one game to the next since the West Brom match is indicative of someone who has lost their self belief. If there is any truth in the two games to save his job theory, then nothing but a win will do for McCarthy and so you would expect a Reading/Fulham type selection and approach, but I've given up trying to second guess our manager's thinking in these last few weeks, For me, he's lost the fans after those West Brom and Swansea selections and it seems like a point of no return in his relationship with supporters has been reached - if he is to be "saved" it seems to me that it can only be due to financial reasons.

My ‘managerial thinking’ is that we play Wednesday’s team but swap out Vaulks for Sang. The less donkeys that played for Warnock the better. He’ll know all their weaknesses.

Re: Would would save Mick on Saturday?
What new manager is going to save this squad from going down ? Possibly someone with good connections who can bring in new players in January, but apart from that, a team that can barely work an opening is doomed.

Bold of you to assume there'll be any money in January

Playing Bowen in his actual position would help the midfield

Sounds like Bowen (and Bagan) might be injured, according to the press conference.
