This is the really pertinent part for me, keeping Unsworth and Joe Royle in charge, even temporarily for a few months, has all the signs of being potentially disastrous, not just for the current campaign which is rapidly descending into a desperate relegation struggle and probably already is, but for any future prospects of attracting any half decent manager.
The very immediate prospects for any new manager coming into our club of achieving a significant uplift in form before the window would be tough and only perhaps get more achievable later in the season, but leaving these two in charge could easily make us untouchable for anyone looking to further their career in management.
Keeping Unsworth and Royle in charge will probably make finding a better manager at the end of the season not easier but impossible
If they carry on picking the same teams with no Vlasic, usually two number tens and no real idea, seemingly discarding anyone he doesn't know too well or brought through, then they'll almost certainly just get the same performances and results and we'll be caught in a viscious circle of bad results lowering confidence making even worse results more likely.
