I believe that following the city game and now the Pool game, if things continue in the same vein the ownership will give him time to resolve any issues as per when he first arrived. I would hate to see another Richard Dinnis where he did well in his first season but the following one it all went pearshaped. I would not be surprised if the owners were already looking far ahead for future managers, hopefully Howe can manage any heat which come his way especially if Brighton ends in a further defeat, which it will should that be the case.
