In Powell’s defence, vs Price, he has completely changed the whole environment in one difficult year. The task now is to back it up and win it, to prove that he was right to do so.
With Price, he kept a few influential figures
around and tried to add to , develop and improve what the club currently had. While we got close in his first year, that is about it. Price’s teams didn’t excite and didn’t deliver, but were consistently in the top 3/4. Steady Eddie. Would have made an excellent co-head coach… if such a thing exists, with someone who could get a team to score, say Rowley or similar.
