If the majority of clubs are at full cap, then coaching has to be the difference between success or failure. Unless you have a brilliant recruitment window, like we did in 2016.
No.
I kept it brief as I know you don’t read if too long.

Just feels like the Dobbins projecting their perceived TS faults on here is an indication of their worry, as they know as well as us that we haven’t had a proven head coach in years.
It’s also notable that TS specifically mentions upon his appointment what a big club FC is. Can’t recall him making the same comments when McGuire persuaded him to take the Dobbins job.
Stuff like ‘dark side’ is melodramatic in my opinion, and I believe he worked very hard on Rovers behalf. Some problems were addressed during his time in charge. The collapse in form after his announcement was probably just a bit of regression to the mean. However, in the same way losing that last derby can be reframed as saving you from another season of BH, us going cack at the end of TS’s reign spares us any potential regrets and risk of splitting into Team Paul and Team Tony, even if it is irrational. Every cloud.
