I can remember the Atkins era as clear as a bell, but the Boothroyd era only stands out for a couple of games, one mentioned above!
With Atkins I liked the fact that the effort was always there, we didn't really have any stars, more of a squad and team ethic of everyone pulling in the right direction for each other, and that came from the manager too. Sure the football wasn't great, but in my eyes it was 10 times better than we are seeing now. There were the odd 0-5 blips, as there always will be but in the main I look back fondly on the Ian Atkins era and enjoyed it a lot more.
Atkins had so many strengths as a manager. I just wished he'd had the confidence to let the teams he built play with more freedom. His belief that we (the supporters) should only expect at best half a dozen decent games a season (to watch) was far too negative.
