Blue 3 points from 18 isn't exactly inspiring. Even you now should be getting ready for Accrington and Barnet next season. Theres not a lot we can do about it now but it still annoys me that we made the wrong appointment. It doesn't matter what other managers do or how they perform, its a fact that our manager isn't and its probably because he cant.
It takes a special kind of knowledge to stir up a storm and drive a team on or else you knuckle down and try to build up a strong team spirit in a very short space of time. Caldwell had no experience whatsoever of either. He had big money to play with but even so he was sacked for poor performances after he took Wigan up. What made anybody think he was the one for us is what I find incredible. Danny managed it last year and may well have done it again but we were never going to do much more than sit above the drop zone with him in charge. The board had to act because the fans demanded it. Most fans thought Caldwell was a good appointment but we now sit firmly in the mire going nowhere other than down. Its not a tall order, its an impossible one. To make matters worse our budget will be cut to shreds next season. It really will be another battle to stay in the football league. Caldwell is going to have to learn his trade PDQ.
