This sounds a little like a David King rant. Seems to take both the black and white position, then goes for the position which was established before the post was even started. There's no doubt in my mind you write very well, but it sounds like the conclusion was formed before the pros and cons were laid out.
The mitigating circumstances (injuries, review, pressure, time in job, covid, lack of support etc.) are completely real and completely legit. I stated elsewhere that before the club reverts to type (yet again) that they need to clearly understand that in our situation, sacking the coach should be a last resort only, a genuine last resort after all avenues for evaluating the future potential of the coach have been exhausted. For Carlton, sacking coaches has been done far too easily. You wonder why the players can't handle pressure when they see the Board bail at the first sign of trouble.
