Choice wise we'll never know, but it had been 2 years before when we'd just missed out. We had struggled the following year when Cattlin had bought Fashanu...... If memory serves me correct around the Xmas period we didn't score for 6 or 7 games. Mullery then came back.
I don't recall him playing Nelson that much during the season, Byrne and Small got us to the play-offs. Tilts over Saunders was forced due to finances and needing a quick sell hence £60k to Oxford. Interested in the 800k as that's not my recollection at all, most of the signings were free...
Show's how badly they got it wrong, he's our most successful manager after Mullery...... One game from the premiership etc..., with a near bankrupt club.
Took us down as well though...... Allegedly punched Bellotti so not all bad.
