I think the real fear isn't that a suitable replacement doesn't exist, but that this organization is so money hungry and poorly mismanaged that we will sink even lower by choosing our next coach the same way they choose our players, on the cheap... even so, we need to see what mustache will do if left to his own devices so he will have to show his true colours... only then can we purge this club and start anew

He's NOT god he's NOT infallable, fine we are all only human but to deny there are better players out there than the ones he has is 1) arrogant and 2) a plain lie To justify the teams failing using the same old rhetoric year in year out while attempting to justify why improvements were not made (by stying in budget and spending the touted «war chest money») is again pure arrogance, (I would say stupidity but AW is far from stupid) and then to blame this seasons failure on the fans attitude is just blatantly direspecting people who in a large part pay part of his wages.
