Stats on their tenure here and where they fit in the Pantheon of Greats from the redoubtable Yeltz_Bear's mega sheets.
Good win record, but with the asterisk that they picked up a side going well in a largely poor league.
Taking the league stats, it's played 22, won 13, drew 4, lost 5. That's 43 points at 1.95 points per game.

Over the course of season, that would equate to 74 points, which is way off what we need.

Believe me , it's a very, very desirable job.
Definitely but that doesn't mean it's right for the club to bring someone new in. There are five weeks until the end of the season. Do you think that's enough for someone to come in, assess the players and probably impose a new playing style? Well, imposing a playing style at all would be an improvement, but you get my drift.

Most managers usually bring a few players with them, that they have worked with before, which wouldn't be an option at this stage of the season. Paul Smith knows most of these players already, and they know him.

The one thing we really need to acknowledge here is that Karen and Keith have acted. They have made a change and given us a chance. There is now a possibility that things may change enough for us to win the play offs. Who knows. But I do know before this morning's statement we had the arse end of bugger all chance. Bring it on!

And he's also watched us a couple of times so he'll have an idea of some rights and wrongs

He hasn't won a game with the Yeltz since Saturday, 8th October 2022. How much longer do we give him? ;D

I wonder if he will keep the players who wanted to fight the fans on Saturday, should be chucked out! Probably be in the squad for Saturday no doubt
