No he's not ! Nor does Sam Walker have any artistry !! Whilst I can understand some residual loyalty from Jim we need much better, if we are to progress quickly out of this division and match the new owners ambition.
Some continuity it terms of the overall squad is desirable but we need to think bigger. For me only Hinchliffe,Osbourne and Arthur (potential) are the only definites for next season. Palmer as a back up CB. Minihan likewise as a squad player. Hopefully Hogan,Maynard and Lloyd will be with us but we need to be thinking of them as the minimum standard for recruitment.
