It should certainly answer a few questions one way or another, if he takes them down then you'd think the cultists would have to hold their hands up and say "yeah, maybe he's not the messiah that I'd believed he was...", though I suspect they'd come up with some excuse to pardon him.
Conversely, if he has them up and around the top half, then those that mock him would probably have to concede that he's not as hopeless as they'd argued.
I fully expect this to be a catastrophe, and I'm relishing the chaos that we're about to be treated to, I actually don't think he'll make it to the end of the season, as the only chairman mad enough to take him on will also be the chairman that's mad enough to sack him pretty sharpish too, outside chance he doesn't even make it to Christmas I reckon.
Which will of course see his Angelistas pointing the blame at the Chairman rather than their sweet prince.
