Not for today but for the season.  He has been unlucky, that is a given, but let's take a few examples.

 

If an NHS hospital fails to meet standard targets, it will be the management responsible for that target, not the staff working under their guidelines,

If the local council fails to meet standard targets, it will be Councillors / management responsible for that target, not the general staff working under their guidelines.

If a chief executive fails to appease stakeholders, it will be the chief executive responsible, not that staff working under their guidelines. 

 

If a manager fails to get results, it is the manager that is responsible, not the team. 

 

 

I agree to some extent but to say staff members are not responsible for their actions is a scary way to look at things IMO. Mistakes happen and the blame for them surely cannot always lie at the feet of the people in charge.

You're conflating "fault" with "responsibility".
