from what i understand the club is still loking for a full time manager.
if kenny can show that there is no need to look for a new manager in ten games then they should just give him the job full time, it will make the club be more at rest, the players will know who the manager is for next season.
kenny can start to look who to but in the summer wondow.

a big part of me thinks they should just give him the job now. but i understand that he has been out of managing for some time so there is a small risk this might not work.

during the ten games kenny will have taken a few new players to the club and we hoipe the results will be much better that thy have been this year.

as it stands they players are happy, i think that if results are good once he starts to put his own stamp on the team then by giving him the full time job will make the players and fans even more happy.

i feel i need to make my point again, the team needs a lot of work, new players. if that dont happen i fear there will be calls for kenny to go.

if the results are right then he should be given a two year contract ofther the next ten games.

its just a tinsy winsy bit contradictory your post.
The team needs a lot of work you say, Kenny has been given the rest of the season to do that, but you feel he should be reassessed in 10 games despite how much work is required.

Why ?

no as the results should be better by the end of the ten games.

fukk  :O

Ah  :laugh: I see you didn't know the letter 'y' is actually considered a vowel.

:blush:

some people would count Y as a consonant, not a vowel, taking the rules from Countdown of course

Well i would hope they are, but it makes no sense that you are just giving this 10 game target which is a short one considering you said we have big problems.
If the owners have already given him until the end of the season that takes the pressure off slightly compared with a strange 10 game target that you have given for no reason  ???
