Seems to be a bit of revisionism about how good we were under LW. I thought I was maybe misremembering so I checked a random game from Sept 2023. It was Forest Green. We won 4-3 against a team that eventually went down.

We managed - according to the stats - a total of 11 shots. Fortunately 4 went in. But we were hardly creating chances at will.

Week after we scored 4 again from 21 shots. Still less than yesterday. Unfortunately we managed to concede 5.

Week after at Barrow we managed 5 shots. That is not a typo.

Then it was Mansfield....

At Harrogate we broke the world record for the most passes back to the goalkeeper since it was made illegal to pick it up. The home fans cheered every one.

So I fail to see how the football now is so much worse. In fact I see enough evidence that we're prepared to vary it a bit which we certainly weren't under LW.
