True, under Dean it was often winning ugly.
But under Nelson it was just 9 games, W.2 D2.L5.
Losing pretty?
Dean’s record that season after replacing Nelson was W3 D3 L12 which is a worse record by my maths, and that was with all the signings he was able to make under Hilton – huge numbers of players came in and virtually all had left by the start of the following season. People seem to have forgotten just how terrible a job Dean did in those 6 months. It’s not to say Nelson would have been any better but he had shown promise which was soon washed away under Dean.
