But it is true that where Worthy went really wrong was in the summer after we went down

That was when he signed Uncle Peter, Hooze, MLJ, Jarrett etc.

He did look like a man shopping on a very limited budget.

Was that the Board's fault? The first season down is crucial and we pissed it away; that COULD have been through lack of funds?
