You're basing that on the fact that Jim signed Carlos from non-League and gave him his senior debut?
Carlos has grown, physically & mentally over the last 18 months and yes, Derek has brought out the best in him so far, but it is one hell of a stretch to say what would have happened under Jim. The anti-Jim brigade do love to turn their predictions in to statements of 'fact'.

Little Shrimp wrote:Yeah this is not some anti-Jim brigade stuff. While JB initially signed CMG and gave him a few appearances in 18/19, he basically binned him off in 19/20 after having let him go on trial at Barnsley. In all likelihood, he probably wouldn't have played much at all last season if JB had remained and consequently been released.
Unfortunately, JB would most likely have been giving Ellison a fair bit of game time last season too, when really he should only be a squad/impact player like he is currently at Newport. Not sure he ever would have accepted that role at Morecambe though.
JB did a great job for a few years but those last couple of years weren't great, and playing Ellison ahead of CMG was a bit of a clanger. Glad he's getting the chance to try something different at Fylde though, and I will be hoping that they get promoted under him next season!
