I understand that the Championship is a different beast entirely but given his success with P2 and the apparent rejuvenation of the team in his first game in charge, I admit to having had far higher hopes for Beale but whilst the overall effort seems to have improved the team selection and performances of certain individuals has not. I get that we have a limited squad but how can Livermore, Bartley, Reach, Philips and Grant be ahead of others? Yes, they can have odd games when they put a shift in (Grant excepted!) but are woeful generally.

Still believe that we have enough decent players to avoid relegation and be mid table at least but whichever manager we end up with will have their work cut out with this lot, yet alone having to work for Fat Ron and Lai.
