Marshall was the biggest error I think.

At the end of his first season as manager when we were safe Grant could have payed Joe Lewis for a few games to see if that worked, if it did have him in with Gallagher as back up and instead of spunking ?1m on a keeper whioch for a club in our financial state is bonkers money he could have got in a couple of other outfield players.

Didn't even try it.
