I'm not giving the bros a free pass because the appointment of Maynard* was a huge mistake and the transfer windows seemed a bit vanilla but have turned out to be worse after flattering to deceive. The loss of Crowley was a concern and lack of a replacement a disaster whoever was to blame (and I include the fans' childish p!$$ taking of his religious views in that).
But I will say that to progress you need to be alive, and we are. Just a bit effing miserable at the moment.
[* - through most of my career, not in football, I've understood coaching to mean putting people in a position where they can use their skill set to make the best decisions and action them. Not many football managers, with their default to control freakery, actually do this but I believe Luke did and Maynard has done nothing of the sort which makes him a big time failure in my book.]
