The core of the squad is decent following the January recruitment. However, it was a complete rebuild last summer and the recruitment process was flawed, with a number of players only arriving in late August, which left us weak in certain areas, particularly up front.
We are probably three or four players away from a promotion winning side, and Mellon is the right man to complete that rebuilding process. There is no manager available to us that is better qualified to manage this club.
I hate the entitled view that we had some divine right to promotion this season, when we began the season with only four players under contract. It is the kind of impatient, now, now, now attitude, that is a problem in modern football and society more widely. Exeter have had several near misses in recent years, including missing out on the play offs completely, but have stuck with Taylor and are now being rewarded.
In any case, it is still perfectly possible for us to make the play offs this time around.
