It is the counter to the people saying we have slid every season.
When you are rebuilding and blooding plenty of kids, winning 9 or 10 games is a fair result. It ain't a good result, we all hope and expect better, but it ain't as if we have been a bottom four battler at any stage.
People trot out W/L figures as 'evidence' that Bucks is no good, going 11-10-9 is supposedly rubbish when you are blooding kids! But going 9 to 9.5 is clutching at straws!!
And ultimately Buckley is again very aware of the circumstances. He knew that the expectation was we would make finals this year, and it is what the club was aiming for. If we were back in finals he would be assured of a contract extension, without it he leaves his own career in the hands of others - Eddie and the board.
They still may well decide to move in a different direction, which would be fair enough, and would get behind whoever they appoint.
My issue is with people who actually really believe that N.Buckley is somehow deliberately sabotaging the club for his own personal gain, which is just ridiculous.
That means that 8 teams need new coaches. Where can we get so many coaches in such a short space of time. I'm so upset.
