Gregan doesn't have back to back promotions on his C.V and has no managerial experience. Whether you like it or not the best person at the club to manage us is Dave Penney. And right now Gregan is one of our most consistent performance and perhaps the reason we aren't in the relegation zone, do you really want to jeopardise his on field performance by giving him a ton of off field responsibility? Hell, if we're bringing anyone in as manager at this point it'd be David Eyres for me. That said, Penney should remain until the end of the season at least. Give him the chance to get us out of this mess. At the point, the only thing we can do is back our manager....we aren't going to magically pull out a top notch replacement out of a hat. A new manager would need time to settle in, take Joe for instance, a superb manager, proven himself 10 fold with us and Everton. He could only get 1 win out of 10 last season, is that a reflection on him as a manager? No, it was reflection on a team gone to the dogs (no pun intended). There's no time for change this season, that point has past. Whatever is wrong with us at the moment, manager or team, all we can do is pull together, grind it out and hope by the end of the season we a point more than the team in 21st. Then we re-assess the situation.
Yes, I'd take Jim Gannon next season. BUT I don't totally object to Penney seeing out his final year.
