It is hard to know how to read this. If the manager actually still retains the confidence of the board or not. The vote of confidence means nothing other than an attempt to take some of the pressure off RK in the shorter term.
RK will not walk away from the job, he will turn it around or he will be sacked in my opinion.
He has been unlucky, of that there is no doubt, the injuries to Coleman, Bolasie, Funes Mori, McCarthy and even Barkley have certainly made his job tougher and I do think that is taken into account by the board.
For me, in the next number of games I will be looking for performance as much as results.
Poor results can be turned around...poor performances indicate deeper problems and if I were a board member that is where I would be looking.
