I didn't agree with giving him the WC to sort it out, but I kind of understood it

his position is untenable now though.

I remember the fans wanting Worthy out for months before he finally went, but he clung on for ages by winning every 'win or he's surely sacked game'. Then we had the comedy Burnley home defeat that did for him.

So obviously Smith will win two or three games between now and the end of January before losing 4-0 at home to Burnley and dropping down to about 9th.
