I honestly don't know who the ultimate decider was, and I suspect we the general public never will. As I've said elsewhere, though, if this was Ned's decision, hiring Neville is a fireable offense, assuming he works out to be as bad a coach as he probably will work out to be. If MP insisted on this hire, though, I actually feel bad for Ned, because that shows who really has the power in an era where MP was reported to have taken a "step back".

I am really starting to think that "step back" means that "okay, I will delete my twitter account and not argue with fans online." When Gio got fired, MP was the first person quoted in the press release and Heather Davis wasn't even mentioned.

The guy was just way too invested in things to suddenly just sit back and count his money. I am curious how much Merritt had a say in this as well and really think it was quite a bit.
