Not sure I’d go that far personally. Maynard was on track for 20 goals last season in an underperforming team. 14 goals in 33 appearances last season is hardly poor in that side. This season it hasn’t been working for him though for one reason or another and agree we are not getting value for money at the moment.
Cook has had his moments. His minutes per goal ratio last season was pretty good but he could never really nail down a solid run in the starting 11. This season he’s been pretty useful off the bench - we’ve ‘all’ been wanting him on after 60 minutes normally! Again though, not getting enough bang for our buck this season.
Davies, Butcher, Anderson, to name a few are high earners that we got practically nothing out of in recent years.
I’m probably coming at it from the poor seasons in general we’ve had with them being on the payroll. I know they’re decent players, it’s just coincided with utter trot on the pitch I suppose.

Maynard's job is to score goals, and that is exactly what he did last season as BH has pointed out. If the rest of the team aren't doing their jobs it doesn't make him a dud.
In the 2002/03 season in League 1, Christie scored about 19 goals but we got relegated. Would he also be classed as a dud on that season's performance ?

Left us at the end of last season and hasn't had a club since (according to Wikipedia)

The goal at the end wasnt though Pete
It's the one in my eyes that cost us promotion but it's forgotten as it was fairly early in the season

The Iffy Onura / Kev Grey swap deal in my book, was worse. Really set us back that one.

On paper the Iffy Onura deal was okay. He was prolific before he joined us, broke a bone in his foot in a PSF, spent the better part of two years injured & was then prolific after he left.
A fit Iffy Onura in that play off season would seen us promoted for sure.
His goals per minutes on the pitch must have been pretty good.

Now you’ll be in trouble. Don’t you know all the dud signings were from Steve Evans
