If I've got my numbers correct, Bolton has coached us in 76 games and won 17 of them. That's a winning ratio of just over 22%. If we win say another 4 games for the season, that will still be his winning ratio after 4 years at the helm. Will the Board stick with him again in 2020?
Probably yes because when you look at history, successful teams have stuck with their coaches for much longer during their formative years they didnt start from the low base Bolts has. I would rather follow the lead of successful club than repeat our retched recent history. Having said that, I doubt very much the powers that be will say "Bolts is good bloke, lets stick with him". Similarly, they wont say "4 wins from 39 starts, lets sack him". Somewhere in between all that, they will have KPIs set up for him which consider a multitude of factors and its those KPIs that will determine his future.
