It was a relief

As I said above, I hope we have success under Wagner.

I know we didn't under Smith. Are you trying to argue we should have kept him? Otherwise I'm not sure what your point is beyond saying that having fans celebrate a couple of high scoring wins is a bad thing.

But sure, have a go at people for feeling more hopeful.

        Indeed. (NCFC) - norwaay, Feb 5, 18:20:27

        The source is Dean smith himself … (NCFC) - loz, Feb 5, 18:14:43
        
        So there is no source for your claim that Webber kept him (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Feb 5, 18:28:32
