As you are a stats man factor in the gate price and wages and I think you'll find an interesting end game! I think that was a particularly poor time for attendances generally though from memory I forget why perhaps the start of more football on TV? His marching orders was the right decision at the time I think. he hasn't always been successful and other than Sheffield Utd doesn't hang around long. He made my late ****s a great time to be alive though so I would buy him a pint any day. He was a great manager for Notts but something went very badly wrong then and I don't think it has been discussed much.
