The jibes being aimed at Maynard "being out of his depth" because he was only part-time, worked as BT engineer, and has no previous league management experience are a red herring in my view. If Maynard has the ability and is given time and patience, it will show. I'm not advocating for him - I'll make my mind up about him over the coming months - I'm just saying some of the narratives apparently advocating against him are unfair and unbelievably premature.
