    False dilemma.

    Obviously an important part of football is keeping the ball out of your net, but I think it's possible to have entertaining football without being completely wide open. As I've said above, the biggest problem facing Williams when we stepped up a level was that our defence wasn't sufficiently upgraded. The recruitment team did make a mistake on that one, probably out of loyalty. I doubt that if Williams or Maynard had Platt and Bedeau at their disposal last season we would have shipped the number of goals we did with the likes of Cameron and Rawlinson, who evidently weren't quite up to the higher standard.
