Look up the difference in clean sheets and you can see why.

Good as it is that was in L2, Championship, Totally different and we have to be honest here, If Stubbs wasn't injury he would have never signed for us, He'd been snapped up by a bigger club, Don't get me wrong he was great when playing but not enough imo and that would put a club in a higher league off.

We're somewhat at cross purposes. By Championship I meant winning the league. Its the equivalent of 94 points over a full season, which would have been enough both last season and virtually any other season, to be crowned League Two Champions by a healthy distance.

This was the one transfer out that I didnt understand.

Given the time, effort and money invested in trying to get him fit, when he was physically able, he was our best defender by a mile and I assume that he is now fit to play for the remainder of the season.

I can only assume that he made it clear that he wouldn't sign off next season and GC and the Club decided to cut their their losses and sign Aimson as his replacement.
