I think that’s very generous and you could put together a decent showreel of their errors this season.

It's not his fault he's not been paired with a central defensive partner who compliments his lack of pace and is better on the ball than him. I remember when we had 4 centre backs of which 2 were comfortable on the ball (Handyside & Futcher then Smith) and 2 who were more no-nonsense defenders (Lever & Rodger).

Tbh they’ve had hardly anyone committed to the battle in front of them and no one to coach them as the previous manager (allegedly) wanted to line his pockets and not bother with the team.

In League Two the aim has to be to try and build a side to get promoted. Do I think we need better than Waterfall in our team to get promoted? Yes. Do I think he could be a capable back up centre half when we're short for a few games a season? Yes, Would you build a promotion chasing side around him? No

Agree with Bigdog that we need to be looking for better, regardless of what our aims are for next season.  Decent pro and with the right partner not someone I would grumble at having either in or around the side.  But the Luke Waterfall's of the world are quite common at this level, I can't imagine there would be a scramble of clubs trying to snap him up.   Sorta sums the club up over the last 20 years really.  We don't tie up contracts for the likes of Amond and Vernam, but we do for someone like Waterfall.
