Unsworth

[Mayor Farnum]

4 games when we're in the shit ain't really a fair period of time to judge unsworth on

No be we can't afford to give him fifteen games if it proves too much for him.

[Mayor Farnum]

Good luck to him. He wants the job. Rumours abound players want him to have the job. Done his time with the kids and had success. Maybe it is his time. Right age. Respect of fans and players. Really hope he has the minerals for it.
I hope he gets longer than a few games to see how it goes. Something like 3-4 months. Let the likes of Coleman, Barkley, Bolasie get back to fitness and allow him to pick a proper first 11 and see what he can do with it.
Time to gt behind him and the team.

If we we're mid-table that would be a good scenario. However, we are in the bottom three and will have to play at least half the season without a recognised striker.

[Mayor Farnum]

He doesn't get us.

In the couple of days after Koeman's sacking every time I saw the name Unsworth it was followed by 'to steady the ship up to tenth'. Now it seems to be followed by 'to see how he does'.
We haven't got time to waste on auditions.

[Mayor Farnum]

At least we will never have to hear how being an ex player makes you more qualified as a manager.

It is a specialised job at the top level and you need someone with a track record of getting results. Everything else will fall into place on the back of good results.

[Mayor Farnum]

I don't think anyone has said he was doing a good job?

But plenty were happy for him to continue until Christmas.
