    It doesn’t but then equally there is nothing to suggest it would have made a difference if he’d had them either

    You think it wouldnt have made a difference that Hecky had the use of our POTY?

    I think we'd have stayed up with Hecky in charge. Mcburnie's goals have papered over a lot.

    Nothing I saw this year from PH convinces me no, on paper it should be a no brainier but he did nothing to back it up.
    There are loads of what ifs you could throw at the scenario, the reality is JM matched PH ratio.

    So with that statement you are saying there is no one in the world better than Hecky?

    He gets presented with limited options. If you think any human wanted to start the season with a strike force of Thiam, Bradshaw and Ugbo you are on some serious gear.

    Not at all, personally I think there are loads better, I was just referring to the timing and relative lack of notice

    Lol he deemed Stefan Payne not good enough then brought in ugbo. He also kept going with the same formation which clearly wasn't working then gave 352 a go for one half against a top 4 side the changed back to 451 at half time. Defiantly a big part of why we are a league one team now.

    With the abysmal squad he was 5 points clear of relegation. The only impact he had was by leaving, who was he to know he would get replaced by the worst manager possible.

    He was 5 points clear because hull and brum couldn't buy a win hull brought in some good additions in January Gary monk turned brum around jose brought in the same amount of points hecky was doing not good enough.

    Hecky did not have the POTY. Simple as that.

    Did he make mistakes? Yes. However he was working miracles with that squad. Jose was simply abysmal and offered nothing.

    Harvey Barnes had a big impact but still wasn’t a striker. He had Bradshaw alone for half a season effectively. Scandalous

    It was obvious he wanted to go 451 over the summer with all the midfielders he brought in he played Bradshaw upfront alone since jan 17

    Fairly sure they’d not seen Knasmullner. Probably a reason why looking back on that beauty now. His signing just about sums it up.

    He hadn't but he said on the French lad who didn't come "we watched him last season and he is much improved this" he had the final say on players and also went to watch them kransmuller was a spreadsheet only signing based on stats lee Jay and Wilson got credit for signing decent players from the spreadsheet hecky can't just hide behind it.
