Fair point about Maynard and I agree that he wasn’t a failure in a footballing sense. Very unlucky with injuries and outward transfers of top players.Yes, the York sacking was very strange.

First and foremost, this is excellent news for Martin Paterson. He remains a very young manager and relatively inexperienced as a number one, so this backing from the ownership group is a significant vote of confidence. After a year in the role, the Reedtz brothers have clearly seen enough to believe that Paterson is more likely to leave for a bigger opportunity elsewhere than to be relieved of his duties. Of course, it does not guarantee he will stay long term, but the decision feels entirely consistent with the way the Reedtz brothers have always operated. Their approach is measured, evidence-based and rooted in careful risk assessment rather than short-term emotion. As supporters, we are fortunate to have owners who act as thoughtful stewards of the club, making decisions with both ambition and sustainability in mind. Paterson is the fourth head coach they have appointed and, viewed purely from a business and financial perspective, their record stands at two clear successes and one failure. With Burchnall and Williams they created value; with Maynard they didn't. That may not sound spectacular on paper, but in an industry where managerial appointments are so often expensive mistakes, it compares very favourably with most clubs I can think of.

Well worth a watch if you have a spare 90 mins. Loved the insights and observations about past and current players/managers/matches etc. The bit about his failed attempt to get a contract extension is a painful watch. He'll be pleased to have got his side of the story out, but, as they say, there's always two sides to these things. You can’t help but love the guy and wish him success. Says he still wants to play in the Championship again. Good he's still got ambition but I'm not sure if that's in his reach. Time will tell. K-Ci deserves a lot of credit for these interviews. Has a great way of getting players to open up.

Fair point. I did lose a life but that didn't show when the result was posted. They say you should retire at the top so I might make it my last game. But I've nothing but the greatest respect for anyone who got out unassisted of course. 🤣

Couldn't have got it without the hint. This could become a bit addictive! 😆

I couldn't agree more.
