You're more optimistic than me on the medium term. I think if we get a new manager in tomorrow, we've got an outside shot at still being league one next season. Too many issues , too few weak sides. Presumably Reading and Carlisle pick up... Cheltenham and Fleetwood already doing so. Tough ask as of right now, I think.
I do disagree here, it’s a weak league
Shrews better than we saw though... Much better at home and deep injury crisis. We'll see anyway, won't we. How much can a new guy do with these players plus some January recruits? Time will tell, but a huge ask, imo.
I do agree there is some dross in the league. I'd add Port Vale to your list and probably Lincoln, who we really should have beaten.
And just to follow on from my own post, I think I'm right in saying that of the 18 points we currently have, only 3 points were picked up against teams currently in the top half, versus 15 points against teams in the bottom half.
Nombe scored 8 in the L2 promotion year under MT.
Out injured for a significant chunk of that season IIRC.
Think the exact same set up, but with a really good striker (let's just say Nombe for the sake of example), probably wins that game vs Shrewsbury. But most of the other games we've had over recent weeks, they'd just cast a dejected figure chasing shadows around the halfway line. Need fundamental change (Manager) and that has to include the addition of forward players. Not a single striker, but a strikeforce. Not sure the ins and outs on Muskwe, but if he's on big money and we can send him back, then that'll hopefully help.
