That's because they sacked him before five games we were highly likely to lose anyway.

And gave an inexperienced manager the job of beating Fulham, Man U, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal. We have more than five winnable games between now and the end of the season. Sacking Alex Neil would be a shame and maybe unnecessary but nor would it necessarily be the wrong decision. Keeping him is as much of a gamble as letting him go - we only know when the wrong decision has been made in hindsight.
