We should’ve gone in for Coleman before Gillingham got him.

That really is a depressing statistic.
Don't let the old man in.

Farman clearly playing with an injury and it’s affecting his game🥺
Stanway injured, apparently.
Was seen getting his eyebrow waxed in town today.

Evatt soon hopefully, if not any league one or experienced manager for me.

Got to agree re. Wild. We had two brilliant finishes which we’d have taken happily at the start of each of those seasons and a third could’ve really consolidated that. Not perfect by any stretch but we’re in L2 attracting L2 managers and we’re still relatively new to this league. Certainly better than this rubbish we’re being served up now!

Clemence has to go tonight.
Watching him before kick off he looked resigned to a defeat.
We keep getting told we cannot afford to sack him it's a case of we cannot afford to to keep him
Not sure how we keep recruiting such poor quality Managers.
Dunn no proven track record
Cooper who splashed Dale Vinces cash
Jolly
Now Clemence none of the Managers have been hungry and have organisational skills like Evatt

What I can,t understand is that they knew what kind of a player Harry Smith is and yet they allowed him free range to score instead of marking him.closely.That kind of mistake has to be down to what the manager says go the team and the way he sets the team.up

He got the formation totally wrong today, that defeat lays at his door. Two big guys upfront doesn't work, Pressley did great at last a forward that can get off the ground but needs Smith along side him. Sorry but Foley's legs have gone.
