Hmmm...

1) Gunn didn't manage to save us.

Agreed. Gunn would also agree and has accepted blame. He was trying to keep us up. Personally I don't think he had a great base to start from.

2) We were pathetic on the last day.

Probably. It wouldn't have mattered if we were awesome. A season is 40 something games, we deserved to go down.

3) Some of his selections/tactics have been a bit weird

So were Roeder's. So were Grant's. So were Worthy's. So are Lord Alex Ferguson's. Benitez does weird things. I think its a manager thing, and we're all football manager's in our heads.

4) He has no (as in ZERO) managerial experience.

So what? Sometimes it actually comes off. Just support him. You have no experience and yet you think you know enough to criticize?

5) He's not the GREATEST man to have at the helm, is he?

Who is?
