Posh Ram Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 It seems like a hypothetical question at this point, but stranger things have probably happened. Anything can happen in the championship and plenty of bad teams have snuck up via the play-offs before. Would Wassall keep his job? He's clearly not cut out to survive the Premier League but at the same time sacking him would be a bit bizarre and could potentially de-stabilise the club. Perhaps the best option would be to bring in an experienced manager but keep Wassall around the club as a coach/assistant manager. Maybe even promote him to a director of football role.

Bridgford Ram Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 It sums things up that a caller tonight asked, 'Do we have a contingency plan in case we go up?' i don't think we have anything to worry about but the fact that it is going up that needs a contingency rather than not going up shows we have problems.

jagerbob Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Even with promotion, I dont actually think wassall would be given the job. mel didnt ever really think he was going to sack PC until he did, he didnt have a list of candidates waiting, nor did he know his strategy. the wassall appointment gave him time, and was safe (in his eyes) because DW knew the club, and the style mcclaren brought in, was one trying to be replicated throughout the academy.

Ambitious Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 If it works, it works. Just because the face doesn't fit, doesn't mean we should cut our nose off to spite our face. There is plenty of talent in the squad to work with. Wassall has managed to get the likes of Martin and Ince back up to match winning, well drawing, pace, it'll be interesting to see what Redknapp can do with regards to having an impact.
