Results matter and this is a zero-sum game for limited spots. From the outside looking in we can judge that the result was disappointing without using supposition and guesswork to either castigate Tom or blindly defend him. I’m sure he is trying his best, but this week didn’t work out as it ideally would have - we took a L without playing a game. The AD should do a quick post mortem and decide how/if their process needs to change (for future weeks).
