His budget was dramatically cut. So the reality was that most would have struggled to maintain that quality of squad. Plus there was players on good money there at the time.
Not sure why this is continually ignored and people still say "he struggled in the transfer market" as if he had a FGR budget. Doesn't take a Sherlock to work it out. You don't all believe he really wanted the likes of N'Tame, surely?

Anyway.

Suggested last week that Morrell could step in and I thought I'd typed Mills by mistake judging from their reactions.
Hate is a bit strong. As a manager I think he’s utterly useless, yes.

For the whole time he was manager I think Yourself, Alan and I argued over this, daily.

He got us in the play offs twice, i wouldn't call that useless. His recruitment of players is poor that's his problem.

Well, that’s another argument isn’t it. If he had to build his own team, god help us.

Not really, we seen last season what can happen if the job goes to the wrong person midway through a season.

He has the reputation for being poor in the transfer market, because his replacement brought in moult and Jennings and Manny smith

I agree with this and he was always on a hiding to nothing after reaching the play offs 3 years on the spin anything short of that was seen as failure. He wasn't given long enough to build his own team so we will never know about his recruitment. We lost the Beast to injury, Fowler, NKP, Obeng, Wright all moved for more money, Speight moved for personal reasons and Ashton, Keates and Harris went into decline so any manager with a reduced budget would have struggled.

Just waiting for someone to start a thread stating, Askey rejects offer saying he wants £200.000 a year contract plus bonus.
