Agree with Musings and Chander, there is no way that we could afford to blood any young newcomers this season and that's what makes it all the more frustrating as we could have had slack in the system to have let loose some of the younger players in the last few games when promotion was comfortably in the bag.
Re Ajose he looked fit , keen and had good movement and was the best available at the time and most were happy with the signing but it never worked out as planned.
The change of mindset here has taken us all by surprise and only time will tell but do have big question mark over Dempster and although he is probably well up for the task has he got the tools and the skills and more importantly the contacts and networking within the football world to be really a bright and successful manager.
Set this against the profile of Evans, love him or detest him, good or bad but boy is he well known and connected within the world of football and this does I think count for a lot.
