There seems to be a growing feeling of discontent with Carrick at the moment, so I thought it would be interesting for us all to rate his overall performance as manager since he took over.
6.5/10 for me.
First season did well to get us into the play-offs considering our league position when he took over, but having no Plan B in the semi-final after going a goal down vs Coventry cost us.
Second season essentially became a write-off due to injuries and I don't think our squad was good enough for the play-offs. 8th place finish felt respectable given the circumstances.
Performances this season have been underwhelming, yet we still find ourselves in a play-off position at present. We play good football at times but Carrick and his coaching team simply have to find a way of breaking teams down who come to the Riverside and set up with a low block. Going out of both cups at the first hurdle now puts even more pressure on him to get us into the play-offs at the very least.
