If it’s the only thing that can be done to alter the course of inevitable relegation then it’s what must happen, yes.

Tbf Tubey, Silva got sacked after 15 games (that 5-2 derby defeat on Dec. 4 being the 15th game), when we had 14 points.
We've currently played 12 games and are on 15 points.
We might be very fortunate to come away from the next two games with any more points, so we'd be in a very similar situation to then in terms of points and games played.
Let's hope we get something at least but it doesn't look pretty at all.
The issue is we don't press, at all. There is no pressure on the ball.
We did the same yesterday as we did v West Ham. We had a decent shape, but they all stop 5 yards short of the opposition player in possession, so then it can just be passed around. We did the same v Burnley, we did the same v Villa. We've done it loads this season no matter who's played because it's something that's implemented from the manager.
This isn't about pressing how Klopp or Pep press, or Tuchel. But we just let teams have the ball and don't in any way look to pressurise to get it back until they're in our final third.

It's why I don't get the kneejerk reactions.
He's had 1 window and £1.5m to fix a squad which couldn't get motivated for a run at the CL and latterly Europa last season. If they can't be arsed for a push at the most glamourous club competition, what chance have we got for Watford at home?
The players downed tools for Silva, Koeman, Allardyce and Ancelotti, what do people expect will change? I didn't want Benitez, but he's here, at least give him a chance with funds. Our jobs a poison chalice, and if having Benitez for a season or two allows us to gut the side, so be it. We have far bigger problems than Benitez.

There is no reasoning with them - they'll only be satisfied when he's sacked - a spoilt child stomping their feet that they dont like their current rattle and want a different coloured one.
Its not unexpected - they were moaning when we were winning games never mind losing.
This jobs a poisoned chalice - unprofessional board, loser chairman, poor DOF/recuritment, poor academy, FFP Problems, a paper thin squad who are largely bang average with a mentality problem. Throw in a Geordie Fanbase with delusions of grandeur based on success over 30 years ago ready to call for your head 11 games in unless you are in the top 7 and what hope do they have?
The next fella daft enough to take on this job will only suffer the same fate as the last half a dozen before him.
He won't overhaul the squad, he will add more older players who won't be good enough.
Rondon is here until at least the end of next year. He will look for more Townsend type signings - experienced players who will be disciplined but lack quality.
And then we have a DOF who apparently wants Van De Beek. The squad won't be fixed until the manager and DOF are replaced.

You will turn on him. Just a matter of when you realise he’s past it.

He was simply the wrong appointment.
You don't give the wrong appointment time. That is illogical.
This is not reactionary or knee jerk - this is the logical position to take. When a mistake is made then the quicker it is rectified the better.
We all know how this will end if we prolong the inevitable.
You can't move forward with the wrong man in position.
Everyone needs to go - the board, the manager, most of the players, the DOF, and lots of the coaching staff.

People acting like this has just happened. It was the wrong decision 6 months ago, just because the decision was still made, doesn't then make it the right decision.
