Presumably that means with regards to playing possession football.
So Collins is trying to change the direction of the club and play possession football - but some teams are better than us at possession football.
Will that get any better if we go up a league?

Nope.
So if we amazingly get promoted - in the long term we are onto a loser.
Therefore promotion or no promotion Collins needs to go as the season is now half way through.

The situation we are in with no point in pursuing the season any further should have a big influence on what happens in January.

It’s going to pee off the supporters big style - but I would not sign anyone in January.
I’d try to get some funds in from those that won’t sign an extension.
Then with a new HC in charge there would be money available for a push next season.

In other words - this season should be written off because of a poor HC appointment.
And because of that the directors should keep their powder dry during January for the start of next season with a new HC.
I didn't say that , I said there are some players I've seen in poorer teams with better technical players than we have , I didn't say the teams they played for were technically better than we are .

The lad Ellis Harrison at Port Vale is way better technically than Cosgrove and Watters .
