Some of the decision making this season has been shocking:
- not taking a game in that FA Cup weekend, where we could have played Hartlepool when they were a very different prospect to the one we played - and thus relieving this heavy period of one midweek game
- not giving the Trophy a go as a result
- taking expensive punts on players that weren't necessarily hugely needed at the time we got them (Crankshaw, Mooney) that could have gone to better causes now we truly need it
- I hope to God I'm proven wrong... but hanging fire on Alex Newby for a bit longer...?
- who knows... maybe we weren't that keen on getting the Southend game played either (although I'd be amazed if that wasn't just Southend causing mischief
- but the biggest was throwing the baby out with the bathwater after the Aldershot defeat - we all accepted that was an off day against a dangerous team, but everything that's followed has been dreadful.
