Makes a bit of a mockery of the decision to give him it till the end of the season. Almost like the powers that be don’t want promotion.

Absolutely no doubt Speakman & Dreyfus were hoping Dodds would pull of a Sbraigi/Crosby type caretaker performance & give him the job permanently
'We'll plod on' was Speakman's words. This was the plan.

Just need 1 or 2 in the summer and we’ll be there or there abouts

Mad that I’d still rather have Dodds than Beale and Dodds is probably a worse manager.

Several reasons behind getting rid I think.
One it was obvious with everything at the club going on, Beale's appointment, BCB fiasco etc - fans wanted blood and the relationship between club and fans had soured.
Also Beale hadn't taken that well in interviews. Initially he said a few things which irritated the fans, then it settled. But then later he seemed to question some of the players and after the window those in charge.
Also I think they thought, quite wrongly, that Mowbray's style and use of forwards was a hinderence to some of the young forward players and they could bring another head coach in who could adjust us, tighten us up and utilise those players better and maybe improve performances. But it quickly became apparent we had went too far the other way and they got rid, but that's probably further set us back.
