To those who say 'Wagner Out'...

This is the current Championship table:

Where should this NCFC team be in the table, if they were managed by any other competent, realistic Championship manager?

I'm not a Wagner fan, I never wanted him in the first place, but we're currently performing exactly as I expected us to at the start of the season based upon our existing squad. We are neither over or under achieving.

The money that it would cost to sack Wagner et al, surely that would be better spent on improving the playing squad? Whenever Wagner's contract expires, a decision can then be made on whether to renew such or not (more likely the latter).
