Im fairly sceptical about the whole thing anyway. Did LW really go in to last season with little say in whether we kept our NL defence or not? I find that hard to believe.
I had heard that LW was very much the driving force behind keeping the bulk of that team together and new deals for players like Slocombe, Chicksen and Rawlinson. Also that the goalkeeping coach at the time was the one behind Aidan Stone.

So maybe they gave some leeway to a successful coaching team that summer. But with how it went, both in terms of keeping some players who proved not to be up to it and LW leaving for a bigger job a few months later anyway, they probably won?t be doing it again.
