Your list of Wilson's achievements is pretty desperate, i.e.
1. Players' caps and history books - these are trivialities not achievements.
2. Academy - Wilson was at County for nearly 6 years. How many players have filtered into the first team from the academy?
3. Carrington - this was up for sale/rent to anyone who had enough cash and Stott had it. This was a transaction not an achievement.
I note that you mock County's previous owners. Stott was not better than them - just richer. Actually I felt that they did rather a decent job in stabilising the club after it reached its lowest ebb. To their credit they brought back the superb Jim Gannon as manager and for 6.5 years he improved the league position every season despite working on a zero budget.
Wilson's first masterstroke was to brutally cast Jim aside and replace him with the hapless Rusk - a decision that I feel cost County promotion that season.
Not only did Wilson and Stott cast Jim aside, they disgracefully made him persona non grata at Edgeley - woe betide anyone who dared mention his name.
Yes, I am making my "debut" on this board but I have watched County at nearly 90 grounds so I believe I am entitled to express my opinions.
