Westwood52 TBF where we are from four seasons of relegation fodder is a pretty good achievement.I suspect the Owners however would expect us to be at least comfortably in the Play Offs.Pauno may well be the scapegoat and ditched.Pre season acquisitions were poor barring Ovie and Laurent.We went for Semedo who Forest didnt fancy and two trainees learning their trade in Estevez and Gibson.This means Pauno had zero options when it came to bringing players in once the usual starters lost form.His weakness as against say McDermott is that he didn’t recognise say L1 or L2 players like Laurent who could impact performance without costing us much in terms of salary and purchase price.
That's a bit unfair. I don't think he had any say on Semedo and Esteves who were likely Kia signings and we weren't able to sign anyone in the Jan window. Who else apart from Le Fondre did McD sign from the lower leagues anyway?
