I'm really not sure where I stand with McNally

Probably safest to sat that, ultimately, his achievements were mixed. But he did preside over a cultural sea-change at the club and made decisions that saved the club from oblivion (imho).

It is also worth saying, however, that the success we enjoyed was equally thanks to the roles played by Lambert and Grant Holt. The latter galvanised the team in ways that, beyond his own displays, are underestimated.

Tell you what I am really sure about though: the abuse of Moxey, who has arrived in the middle of a s**t storm, is absolutely f**king boneheaded.
