Reg will love me here.............Flitcroft did do one thing purchased for the style he wanted. They were pretty poor quality in the end when we tried to switch, but they did OK when lumping it forward for four front men to play off 50/50's.
Brown got some good players, but managed to bring in a lopsided squad and then couldn't settle on how to use them. In fact he got a bit frantic, the longer it went, the more he tried to change it around.
Flitcroft got in half a dozen or so on 2 year contracts, or more with options... Taylor, Robertson, Lancashire, Dunne, Knoyle, Keshi and Kaiyne. Robertson was a waste, Lancashire looked an OK Div 4 stopper, until injured. Dunne limited, but usually fit to play and we needed some Div 4 experience in the middle, so you get a man with 200 odd games at the level..... it's just what you do.
Knoyle has been offered a new contract, and K and K some consider our best "footballers", if maddeningly inconsistent.. on a good day they can be very good. Taylor, a very good signing....
The modern day coach is all about improving what you've got.... will Wellens be able to get something out of Scott Twine?
