While I agree he wasn't the man for the job it's a bit hypocritical for people to allow smith time when for my money Lowes was given 3 weeks.
It is pretty much a coach's track record that buys them time. Cullen saved us from relegation so was given a lot of time. If noble hadn't achieved what he had at bradford, wigan would've shown him the door by now. That is the simple reason why smith will be given time.
