Yes... that mid-70s top order will hopefully never be surpassed for consistent ropiness. I am lucky in that, while I was present at the ground, I am just too young to remember their exploits with any clarity.

Salt and Rawlins showing some fight.
These are decent young cricketers. Maybe today will be a good day for them.

Yep. And to draw parallels with the 70s, things changed when Mendis and Parker came through the ranks. Rawlins really does look the real deal

It seems that Gillespie might be more suited to keeping a team of talents on an even keel than rolling his sleeves up and doing a year round coaching job if that is what is needed at Hove...?
But ultimately it is 95% about the players and not about coaches. The teams put out over the past six weeks or so haven't been good enough.
Why? Hard to say. Injuries and unavailability are factors but not excuses. They have combined with loss of form from key players.

Unlucky end for Salt but very tricky with Parkinson turning it out of the rough.
Won't last long this afternoon.

Except that those guys had it harder batting on UNCOVERED pitches.

Looking at those averages you'd certainly like to think so but actually they just weren't very good batsmen (by first-class standards) ...
