It is absolutely remarkable how bad it went at the end.
it's not a total surprise, there was a massive cost cutting exercise at the end of his first season, and the lingerers in the squad from warnocks days on high wages made it even more difficult to use the remaining budget well.
we went from having one of the biggest footballing budgets in the division to one of the smallest effectively
We went 8th in September, with 11 points from 6 games, that's nearly 2 points a game. We didn't even start badly. For it to go so badly wrong, so quickly was incredible. In fairness to Mick, he wasn't afraid to chuck the kids in. Bowen, Bagan, Colwill, Davies, Sang and Evans all played under him.
we didn't start badly but Aden flint was scoring all of our goals - that isn't something you can rely on for longer than a few games so we were always likely to drop away.
yes Mick wasn't afraid to put the kids in, and in the longer term it's one of the only ways we will be able to bridge the gap back to the teams with money in this league
This is it, we can laugh but i'm now seriously worried Whitehead will be the new boss until the end of the season. I think Mick will get a short tune out of Blackpool, might not be enough to save them but it's only 6 points between them and Bristol, 20 games to go.
Have Blackpool got 5 centre backs ?
Everyone taking the piss of this appointment are forgetting that MM will get Blackpool playing direct but effective football and they have the players to respond to it. Madine up front will be continuously concussed, but will score goals.
He was pathetic for city overall - but he kept us up and in fact has done so with most other teams he has managed.
We should be worried about our own managerial issues not Blackpools.
