It is easy to defend against. Your observations have echoed the thoughts of many on the forum. The question was asked a little while ago had the manager taken the team/club as far as he can. This question did provoke some deep and passionate debate. People are now seeing shortcomings that were not exposed as much last season simply because we were on a big run and promotion was in sight. The real problem is we are not good enough with the training and development. We have let some top players go and not replaced them with quality, we have just released players from the club that could and should have played a bigger part in strengthening the clubs position. Is this a case of the players from higher leagues not being managed properly. They have moved on and done well for their new clubs. Chris Eagles move to Portvale proved the point. He was allowed to play his game in his normal position and was credited with 3 assists in their 4-0 win. so is our management up to managing players from the higher leagues? this question keeps cropping up.
Maybe letting them play would be a good start.
