Everyone knows its bonkers, but and it's a big but
Everyone involved knows the score before getting involved.
Morison would have known this and his job, that he accepted would have had some guidelines

He didn't get rid of the dross, as in reality most of them were coming to the end of their lucarative contracts.

Therefore you could argue that he had a clean sheet to bring in his own players, and was backed accordingly
I don't think theres any such thing as a real free transfer now it's just about the player getting a signing on for rather than his old club getting the cash.

Knowing the limited timeframe that he had to operate in, he brought in players to do a job

I very much doubt that the guidelines he was given included the option of producing a team that couldn't score goals, or that had no bottle for a fight

We have become too easy to play against, its Morisons team and in a results driven business you either deliver or go, it's nothing more complicated than that

Looking at the results for 10 games, we have taken 11 points out of 30 on offer

That's a fact and it simply isn't good enough

It's a results driven business, rightly or wrongly and you don't have time or the luxury for projects
Ok, but did they say to Morison ’stabilise the first team, and evolve squad over the summer in line with our strategy (or whatever the wording was) but you need to be challenging for the play offs after 10 games’?

I very much doubt that. No manager would sign up for that.

So your ‘it’s a results driven business’ needs a bit more context really!
