DC so far

I will be honest, i have been pretty fickle, hot and cold, wishy washy, whatever you want to call it, start of season i thought yeah this guy is a breath of fresh air, calling out the players when they performed poorly, but then he was repeating himself week after week but nothing would change too much, so i thought oh **** he cant lift them or improve their play or maybe he had lost the dressing room.
So i started getting peed off with his pressers.
Now i know we had lost a little quality in a couple of areas but i still thought we had enough to be getting play offs, so 7 or 8 week ago i would have been giving him 4 or 5/10.
But recently not only have our results picked up but, the performances have been much better, from the coach and the players, we look more positive, i think his erratic substitutions have diminshed a little although not eradicated, and it does look like the players are playing for him.
And his after game pressers seem a little better.
So at this moment i think he deserves a 7.5/10, and if we make it into the playoffs even if we dont get promotion he will have done enough for me to give him a 9/10 and another crack next year.

 

Comparing the squad Stendel had available, it's amazing we are in the same league position this year after 25 games eg. Cosgrove & Watters vs Kieffer Moore & Woodrow

 

So we agree fella, except I wasn`t trying to defend Clarke as I have never seen a game of his since I called time on watching em a few seasons ago.
