    All good players spotted by Hillcroft and made better.

    He made mistakes. He didn't get the right results. He deserves credit for leaving us with a squad probably worth double what he spent in transfer fees.

    Here here Dyson. Credit where Credit is due. He did promise to work with players and make the better to sell on thus making us more profitable. I just think he got bog down with loosing and found it hard to see the problems clearer.

    You forgot to mention that he also left us bottom of the league etc.
    I wasn't a Hill knocker in fact quite the contrary but I think all the story should be told

    I think the 'made mistakes, didn't get the results' bit covers that mate

    I reckon hills scouts are good enough probably. we need to focus on the Academy and keep them players coming through.

    From what I understand Flicker finds the players, Hill polishes them. Clough/Taylor

    He always said that if we were to break even, develop players and sell on at a profit it'd take time and a consequence of the strategy might be relegation.

    He was right. Football league genius.

    So effectively he said that selling your best players might mean that you get relegated. Absolute genius. O could have told you that for nowt. When I was 7.

    Won't we end up losing money on Wiseman?

    As for not selling Done?? Bonkers.

    But if all those players are saleable assets at Championship level now then why are we bottom of the league?
