Braintree at home was pretty dire, however, there was a second leg to remedy matters, no second chance in a final!!!


We won the feckin final did we not?

It's a backwards appointment.

People moaned about Hurst bigging up the opposition each week but Slade was exactly the same!  There wasn't a weekend where he didn't bang on about how tough the next game was or how he would have to tinker a bit with the formation to counteract the other teams '5 in midfield' or whatever it was.

People moaned about Bignot playing square pegs in round holes - Slade was the same with his 'lop sided midfield', playing a central midfielder (Toner) wide left.

Granted he did make some decent signings but he also signed some utter dross - Anthony Williams, Ronnie Bull, Terry Fleming, Clint Marcelle, Glen Downey, Terry Barwick, Junior Mendes ....

It's a typically bad Fenty appointment, yet again!

Slade Out!

I hadn't heard that before! He lost it completely, how was the "frenchman" incidentally?

I thought Toner only played wide left under Buckley.

Thought Slade only used him in the centre but he wasn't a regular there as Bolland and Kalala were ahead of him - and thrn Woodhouse too at the end of the season.

Yeah that rings a bell but Goodfellow wasn't a central midfielder. He was a wide player or a forward. Used more as a kind of no.10 support striker as a substitute I think. Seemed a technically decent player but failed to make an impact.
