I think you'd expect him to play a straight bat

whatever players were mentioned. (Although agree that comparing them to Hucks was rather bizarre.)

But the line about young players with potential worries me much more. Really does suggest to me that, as you say, our ambition has shrunk back to where we were five years ago.

Can't help thinking that Worthy's incentives are well out of line with the interests of the club and the fans now.

We know that this season is a goner and its all about building for the future. Whereas he's thinking now about keeping his job - for once it's the club who're guilty of short-termism, rather than the fans.
