This kind of articles are there for long 11 seasons (summers) and the specialist is here doing what his ego tells him to do... I say no, this time ALL fans should stand together and demand more, put more pressure on the board and the manger... This club is a top club and is not a 4th grade anymore... All those who are in UK should do something (protests, show banners, chants, boycott, whatever)...

Doing nothing, our 4th - place trophy is not even guaranteed...
