He wasn't diabolical at all, and in the early stages of the season his long cut out passes to the left were the primary method of Trinity's attack. There was very little from other sources.

It just so happened that Sykes was a better fit for Smith so John lost out

If we brought isaac john in to the side now I think he would have a better chance to make things work. Drag a young lad half way round the world and stickhim in a group of 20 players from here there and everywhere, that also has tim smith looking to get his career back on track was probably a bit much. And then only give him 6 games. But hey ho Agar obviously didnt think he was good enough

Isaac John 'was' good enough but 'wasn't' consistent enough.

Looks like you were right all along!!
