They weren't that strong in the Championship tbh. They relied massively on Taarabt, was always going to be the case when he struggled with much less time and space in the Prem that it would show up the rest of the squad - which is Championship standard.
And yet they're not in the bottom 3. In January with money to spend, which wasnt the case in the summer. Deserved a chance to improve the squad, again something which he barely had a chance to do in the summer. Cant see who is going to go there and give them a better chance than Warnock.
