Yes, but think in the context of when O'Neil was manager

He had the luxary of having several Premiership players in our squad when he was in charge. We were definitely top 6 without a doubt in my opinion that season. Jon Newsome was playing particularly well back then, and I even went so far at the time as to prophesise that he could be a future England player. Sadly he ruined his knee after an ill judged move to Sheffield Wednesday when the bankers came calling.

We had a quality team, with Mark Bowen, Neil Adams, Jon Newsome, Eadie, Fleck, Ward, Polston, Johnson, Goss, an emerging Danny Mills.

Worthington arguably has 1 maybe 2 Premiership players in his squad. I accept he screwed up in the summer - but he had no money to spend at all it would seem. However, he has made mistakes (right hand side negligence, over reliance on an under performing/growing liability Darren Huckerby). However, he brought success before from a base that we find ourselves in. Can he not do it again?
