Anyone setting up to play on the counter would surely make us hard to break down? He installed the most lightweight midfield I've ever seen. You go on about the players he inherited being poor, yet Kelly, Broadfoot, Wood and Mattock were absolutely immense for Warnock. Why couldn't he, a top flight defender himself, replicate Warnock's success? The fact that he paired Ball and Fry together in one game is beyond belief. We leaked goals, which is not ideal when your tactic is to have 25% possession.

In my humble opinion, he was worse than Redfearn.
Fair play to you Gorky, you called it right about Stubbsy...I was still a believer long after you had said he was going to be a disaster.

How wrong I was.

In fact if a saboteur had been hired by someone with an axe to grind against RUFC to destroy the club from within, I doubt they wouldn't have done half as much damage as Stubbsy did. He caused absolute havoc.
