We could contrast Hinshelwood's relative over-achievement with Stuart Maynard, whose biggest failing was that he didn't appear to get the best out of a Notts squad containing considerable talent. The club statement said as much.
Bearing in mind JJ never got match fit, Crowley went in Jan what considerable talent did we really have?
I agree he had to go but I watched those players week in week out and yes we had a solid back line and keeper and great DCM in Abbott and Didzy when available but I?m struggling to see which players stepped up consistently.
