Anyway, to me, he's been a disappointment. He started well but blew the safety chances just for his own ego when he replaced Esson with Fraser, along with that bizarre starting line up for the final game of the season. Of his signings, they have been a bit of a mixed bag. Some have been good (Foran, Cox, Hayes), some have okay (Odhiambo, Bulvitis, Sanchez) and some haven't worked out at all (Eagle, Stratford).
Perhaps the oddest thing is that some players just seem to have disappeared under Butcher. Hastings had still a part to play at this club, as does Roy McBain now, but the disappearance of Iain Vigurs for me was the biggest blunder of his time so far. From what I could see, Vigurs was a good player and a good passer of the ball, and had the potential to be the new Black, maybe through time he could be even better. Butcher didn't play him because he "was a good player but wasn't Butcher's kind of player". Seriously, unfathomable stuff.
So that's my short run down of Butcher's year in charge, I doubt he'll be here to celebrate his second year in charge.
