Sometimes you have to sell players to survive, but surely as a manager you've got to get on with it. IMO it doesn't excuse their awful run of form - something like 12 points since October.
And look at how badly he managed their FA Cup game against Liverpool last season - he's not a very good manager IMO.

But the lower down the league you go the easier it is to replace players, when you get to the heights of the Championship and Premiership it's asking alot for a team to lose 5 of it's best players and still think their going to perform at the same level as a team.
He sold something like £9,000,000 worth of talent and spent £1,000,000 and for the Championship your only going to head in one direction and that's down, he took over in 2003 just before they went into recievership and has taken them into the Championship and put them on a solid foundation financial wise so although not a great manager imo he's a decent manager just too outspoken for his own good but to be honest if were truthful he's only said the truth aka most players who do dive are foreign players, there is corruption within football with agents and so on.
