A couple of thoughts

We needed to strengthen up the middle, instead we let Malky go and ended up with Simon Charlton. Worthy was too loyal to Holt who was well past his best, and we should have played Safri more. And of course not getting a proper prem quality striker until it (almost) too late.

We should have been more postive in games and I still have nightmares about that Blackburn draw when we lost a late goal against ten men when we should have gone forward and killed them off.
