Momentum, a word that can be used to describe movement upwards, and downwards.
Post MON, our momentum had been inexorably downwards. Of course there are explanations, some obvious, some hindsight driven. But what strikes me is that once downwards momentum gathers pace, it is so difficult to stop, let alone reverse.
Lerner had his merits, as did several of our failed managers and players, but all seemed helpless against this irresistible force.
And then Steve Bruce arrives, and everything changes, perhaps it was that simple? Appoint Brucie. Perhaps not. Maybe he is just the right man, at the right time.
