When Burchnall took over we went on a terrible run - not only Hornchurch, but also 2 league defeats to Eastleigh amongst others.
The turning point for him looking back was the draw at Altrincham in May 1, 2021. After that game we went on a storming run that eventually allowed him to join the mighty Village Green Rovers (not unrelated, that game was also the turning point for two others; Ruben and Ross)
Anyone else see possible parallels with Maynard stopping the rot at Accrington then kicking on at Bradford?
I think SM's start was even worse than Burchnalls' and it's doubtful we'll go on as good a run now as IB's team did for the last 10 games of that season, but it seems the two may have something in common - awful starts, turned into something viable after score draws earned at north-west teams, 10 letters beginning with A
Let's see if it works out that way.
