If we didn't have the FA Cup I could have seen him sacked before the end of the season.
This game has just summed up the season.
It probably is just that saving him now, yeah. There is a certain element of what can anyone coming in now do in such a short time too - new manager bounce is one thing, but there needs to be something capable of bouncing and I suspect if dropped from a height the available selection would not engender much more than a new manager splat.. We've games against Arsenal, Newcastle and Brighton left, all of whom can play us off the park if we put out a back line and midfield like tonight. Then you have the City game, and only 2-3 weeks separating them?This game has just summed up the season.
It's probably going to have to be a clean break and fresh start, hard to shrug this season off for him despite how cruel certain elements of it have been in terms of circumstances to deal with.

I admire the loyality of the travelling fans.
I'm walking distance from Old Trafford and I wouldn't bother going, never mind an away game.
Perhaps the social element makes it worth it.
