Performance against cambridge

Quoted from Civvy at last

Can't be done I'm afraid.

You're only allowed 11 on the pitch !!!!!!!!!

Ditto. Methods were disliked by existing players from day one, and new signings were becoming increasingly dismayed.

Quoted from 1mickylyons

ginny genuine questions
Ref Donny at home

what would you have done in relation to sending a team out at home to play the runaway league leaders in front of a near full house?
Did the team MB selected have the best possible chance of taking points from them in your opinion?

No, but i don't think we currently have 11 players capable of beating Donny in 9 out of 10 games. We could have made a better fist of it i agree and it's not nice to watch your side get slaughtered by the upstart Yorkies from up the road.

It's all pointless now isn't it? We move on and we'll never know what he could have done. He may have failed spectacularly, but to my mind, he wasn't failing when he was sacked, so why sack him? We are just going round in circles. Those that didn't like him are happy and those of us who were ok with him are bemused. History shows that changing managers hasn't really worked for us in the recent past, so i'm just a little apprehensive about where we are heading and with whom. Will the new man get as much leeway as Hurst, or as little as Bignot?

Good post. My point about the Donny game was I as a fan never expected Town to win because evidently they had a better side but I did expect us to field our strongest possible line up and give them a game and that never happened.I accept GTFC will lose games and I accept from time to time they will lose in a shocking manner but that was the first time in a long time I have seen us roll over and die and I am glad JF wasn`t prepared to put up with it.Anyway mate looks like Slade next . I will have to suck it and see I aint happy but I am genuinely interested to see and hear what he plans to do to take the Club forward? League 2 is not great and RS should be striving to hit the play offs next season and who knows maybe he can put right in the next 6 games what he got wrong at Cardiff

Yeah, i get that the Donny game was a straw that broke the camels back type result for a lot of folk and it was the beginning of the end for MB. I just hope Slade isn't being discussed ad infinitum and dividing the fans again this time next season. We could do with a season where just the football is the hot topic.

Here's a good revolt squad. Maceown, Davis, Vernon, Disley, Berrett, McAllister, Gowling. Also representing, Boyce, Andrews and Collins

I wouldn't be at all unhappy to see the majority of those go though

Agree, Most of them not in MB's plans is my guess and who would argue?

The Daily Mail says:

"Bignot was told of the board’s decision before last weekend’s win at Blackpool"

So presumably the players also knew and that they were doing it their way and may even have been told to show what they were capable of doing. So the win at Blackpool is what we might reasonably expect to see more of?

FFS it's the Daily Mail.....
