We are rudderless, lurching from to plan with no long term vision. The last time we had a long term plan we got promoted under Karanka, then threw it away.

The last 4 managers have been complete changes in footballing ethos, no wonder we have a disjointed squad and each of the managers have been able to blame previous managers/recruitment team for this imbalance.
I genuinely can’t see the point of keeping Warnock on for another season as this doesn’t address what‘s needed. Are we trying a model like Brentford, are we going to use the academy more, are we going to splurge wages on free transfers, are we looking at potential gems from the lower leagues in England to develop?
The standard of football is incredibly poor although it can’t be denied Warnock is capable of obtaining results through his variation of percentage football. Can you imagine being promoted with this style of football and then watching us being systematically dismantled by teams in the top flight? It’s not sustainable in the long term as proven by the manager‘s lack of success after promotion; he’s done the job he was asked to do but next season we need a long term plan that we stick to, rather than another knee jerk reaction or laughable “got the job because of an amazing powerpoint presentation” appointment.
