Next 5 fixtures might decide Chiefys fate. An in-form Adelaide at home (with potentially a lower attendance than last week...) Auckland FC away, Jets and CCM at home and Victory away.
I think if Chiefy loses the next two games convincingly he will be under a bit of pressure to get 4-6 points from CCM & Jets. I think he'd be safe with 7+ points in his next 5 fixtures.
I imagine if we don't accomplish this (at least 6 pts in 5 games) I think the reigns would and probably should be given to Greenie for the remainder of the season.
Someone mentioned the Reserves performance this year as a deterrent for signing Greenie,- however keep in mind that Reserves Teams are often at the mercy of the first teams needs, so things like player availability/style of play can be affected greatly. Reserve/Youth teams are focused on development rather than results. They're also dependent on the quality of U21 players coming through and where they are in their development, we've seen in the past this is often a cyclical nature.
