Default Autumn Planted Onions

We have had a disaster with our autumn planted onions this year. We knew
they were bad but we have just weeded them and counted 14 plants out of 50
sets planted.
They were from Marshalls, variety "Radar".
Now we normally lose a couple over winter, foxes/cats digging etc, but this
is unusual, and the garlic planted at the same time and next to these onions
is doing very well, better than some years, so we can't see it was the very
wet autumn.
Anyone else had this problem this year?
