Powell will get the full 3 seasons, maybe receiving a 60 point kicking tonight might do something but I even doubt that. In fairness to Powell and after some deliberation (I don't think he's the right man) it would be wrong to give him the boot right now - we are second in the league after all. I doubt he can, but if he can arrest this freefall and get us looking likely to win a GF in the next month then he'll be proving his coaching credentials. I'd consider this period his last chance though.
Personally I think we're heading for a long losing streak, hope I'm wrong.
I think you're right, lose the next 3 and he might become untenable based on the last 5 results. Other than that, he's here until the end of the season. I really really hope he manages his way through this blip and we start our run for the playoffs in the coming weeks..if he can't change the current momentum, he's not the right man for the job IMO.
I'll be behind him tonight from the start, because being behind him is better than calling for his head in minute one.
