Managers: How Long Before You Criticize?
A general question, really. Personally, I think it's laughable people are calling for Montgomery to be sacked, even though there are obvious grounds for concern.
My own preferred style is back them unreservedly for 12 months, then assess to determine whether there has been a discernible improvement. I backed Johnson for this period -with the usual reservations - but then was a strong advocate for him moving on. I'm behind Montgomery. Whether his system of play will work in our game and with our personnel is open to question. But I'll keep my counsel until this time next year.
