If The Bros have learned anything, I hope it's that it doesn't matter what title you give them, the guy in charge in the dug out on match day needs to be able to inspire, manage and change tack depending on the state of the game. The glove puppet didn't have any of those qualities, he must've thought all his birthdays had come at once when he was offered the Notts job. In my view he was the biggest chancer, but I don't blame him for accepting

Gross error? The guy was a handful of points away from automatic promotion. We've had gross errors in appointments in the past, this wasn't one of them and I'm sure the Bros as are many of us disappointed that he didn't grow in experience in his time here. Gross and brutally; easy to say in hindsight. Fine margins between failure and success and with changes during the season there were shifting sands. The Bros have made the right decision now they have 18 months of data and facts.
How do you work that out ? They gave him an opportunity to make a name for himself, but the job proved too much. As regards the January window and the fact the two coaches weren't replaced. This was because the Bros already new at that time that it wasnt worth spending large amounts of money on recruiting new coaches and players with this guy at the helm, so decided to leave it until the season was over.
