if we hadn't started the season trying to play out from the back like peak Barce with players totally unsuited to the task we might well have stayed up. he took too long to learn to cut his cloth accordingly
Maybe he could have changed sooner but he wasn’t trying to get us to play any differently to how Maher is having us play out from the back now. It is possible if you recruit the right players (and Hobson, Kyle Taylor, Cordner, Olayinka etc were more than able to do so once he was able to recruit)
The advantage with amateurs is that they are cheap.I will never understand his judgement in surrounding himself with an entourage of amateurs. Not just one or two but a bunch of them.
That said the analyst he recruited I see is now at Brighton, Tom Prodomo is at Bournemouth, the goalkeeper coach is now the first team goalkeeper coach at Portsmouth. Not sure what Anton Robinson is up to now but otherwise his staff all seem to have gone onto better things.
