believe there is just a lack of patience with some clamouring for Deans head, we have won games under him, the Wealdstone win was a really good all round performance but there has been a real lack of consistency overall
When this season is all but done he would have had 17 games which is plenty of time to come up with a formation that suits the players at your disposal and to play some cohesive football.
Nelson took 3/4 games to achieve that. 17 games isn’t that far off half a season. We had one performance against Wealdstone but apart from that it’s been awful. I posted the form table since Dean is in charge and taking into account another loss against Oldham, we’re currently second from bottom.
“we have been clinging to the wreckage of a broken club for five seasons and David Hilton or Jimmy Dean are not miracle workers”
Expecting a manager to come in to assess his players to mould them into a formation that suits them and get them playing half decent football is not expecting miracles.
I keep saying this but it took Nelson 3/4 games to assess the players he had and he came up with a formation and a system which suited them and we played some good football. There is no excuse and iron-awe needs to stop with this apologist’s bullshit, it doesn’t wash.
Nobody has said he’s had it easy but he knew what he was walking into and so did we, what we did expect though was a manager with some know how and ability to form them into a cohesive unit at the very least and he hasn’t even managed that. On the whole the choice of going with Dean has backfired.
Harsh reality is you can be an apologist all you like and fight Dean and Hilton’s corner but we’ve gotten worse even since Dean came in to replace Nelson. Nelson had much less to work with than Dean so cut the crap.
