In general, Darren Moore is doing a decent job. Especially for a first-time manager who is effectively learning on the job. We aren't that special. There are so many big clubs in the championship, a lot of sleeping giants. Our fans just have modern memories of us being a yo-yo team in the mid 2000s so think we had a god given right of an instant return.
Teams rarely go straight back up, it's such a difficult league to navigate. Better teams than us with more experienced managers have failed.

In the last 28 seasons; We looked at the records of all the teams that had just been relegated from the Premier League/First Division. How many of them bounced straight back the following season?

If we got automatic promotion it would be great job done by Darren Moore. It's likely we'll be in the play-offs which is still okay, albeit probably the minimum requirement to keep his job. So he deserves another season either way.
The owners need to go, not the manager! Lai makes Peace look like a big spender
