Won't get the sack. He'd walk before it ever came to that, and even at that, it'd be mutual consent. We won the Carling Cup, and have a realistic chance of winning the FA Cup. Sorry, but you can't sack a manager when he wins 2 cups out of a possible 3 in his first season. League has been really dissapointing, really really. Noone is more dissapointed than me about it.
He needs to be given time, he needs at least one more transfer window and one more full season, to see what he can do in the league. Because the potential is there. To judge him after one season and one window is a big mistake. Yeah, people will then point to Hodgson, but that was totally different. The players weren't playing for him, the football was dire and the fans never wanted him from the start. He regularly spoke out against fans etc. Hodgson never will and never was right for the club and would of never turned it round here. That's why he was sacked. With Kenny, I do, believe he can turn it around. Sometimes it's hard explaining to fans of different clubs. As they just look at it in black and white. But L'Pool fans will understand.
Kenny's not without his faults, he's made mistakes. But he's turned us round the dark corner we were in 18 months ago. But can he propell us further? That's the fans worry I think.
The only way we'll know, is if he's given time, I think he deserves that, personally.
