Quote ="Dave K."Again, not many (if any) has said that, a few have said that Radford has improved us this year from last. If we can finish 6th/7th with a tougher set of fixtures then Radford will have at least matched Gentles league performance.'"
That is the claim I was getting at, but I worded it badly in a rush. We have persistently been told by Pearson about how Radford is turning the club around, yet for all this club rebuilding he's been doing 2 years on all we can really say with certainty is that we're now less s**t than in his first season. And this after spending a small fortune paying off players who were apparently the root cause of our problems, but would actually almost all be out of contract in a couple of months anyway.
You're right that it hasn't actually been specifically stated, but my personal perception is that Pearson has at times attempted to lay the abominable 2014 season largely at Gentle's door, and thus treat the improvement since as some sort of vindication that Radford is fixing Gentle's mess. So that's where I agree with UllFC, that the situation Radford took over has been overemphasized to how bad it actually was.
