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.Quote:

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

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.
Whoops!Quote:

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.

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.
What do you call a man with 3 trees on his head?Quote:

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.Quote:

What constitutes fail, has to be minimum of 2 draws or a win
How much is the mutual agreement worth
He needs to go
when MM was asked if he would resign he said 'no, i'm here for the long ball'Quote:

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.
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.

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.Quote:
