I think you will find that the players did have respect for PB. He did do good here. There is no denying it. All that sours the memory is the way he left. That has been done and dusted to death. Lets forget it. and move on. If he gets the credit then he gets the credit. Don't take it away from the lads for giving it. It shows them in good light and being real men to stand up and says whats what and correct. He did good by them and they won't stab him in the back for it.
I was a little surprised to see it in print so long after he left though.
I would further recommend a corner routine which I long remember working brilliantly at Bristol Rovers back in the days when Frankie Prince Played. I Wonder if Frankie can remember it. The only problem I can see is that it always without exception involved a player called Stuart Taylor who was a 6'4" defender. I think he holds the record for matches played for Rovers.
If we wanted to implement that routine. We would need someone tall at the back post and near post, but if we did it would work 9 times out of 10.
