I agree with norway and Brandonio

We'll see what AN is made of in the coming run of games, and I'm not prejudging that. But he's neither the Messiah for Bournemouth nor an idiot for yesterday - abjectly, crassly pathetic though yesterday's performance was. I'm sure he'd be the first to acknowledge he's a few things to learn at this level in any event, and we knew that on appointing him. As I said yesterday, that appointment *was* a gamble - which means there's a chance it won't work - but I still back it, because I'd still sooner have him in charge than one of the perennial drain-circlers.

If it doesn't work, we'll lose a lot of players in the summer, hopefully sign some fresh, keen talent from the lower leagues and go again. As long as our manager then isn't Neil Warnock, I'd take that.
