How sad that it has come to this. ERA need to be very careful not to reward failure as Bristow have done since 2014.

I left in 2009 when RB started to be in full flow, never did understand what hold he had over BC when the latter was normally a pretty good judge of character. Thankfully it was a good move for me and I never had to go through the JB era.
