Huge game this one, and we don't have a great record against Crewe. It's hard to see much changing at all sadly. For Slade there is only so many times you can go on the back of the Grimsby Evening Telegraph and say there will be a huge response from the players.......... so far we have seen no response at all. Yet again, if Slade has nothing to work with, what can he really do ? Arsenal fans call themselves a club with no ambition, frigging hell, let them follow Town under the leadership of Fenty and witness a club with no ambition........ Not sure where Russ lives when he manages Town, but the rumour mill is rife about the amount of time he spends in the Bookies at Louth !!!!!!!......... Live and let live anyway, we are all entitled to enjoy ourselves by whatever means possible............. I am still behind Slade and Wilko 100%, I just honestly believe the playing budget they have been given must be awful this season, and I believe we could be hanging on to league status by a thread this season. Could any manager in the league turn our squad into a good outfit ? Still, balderdash to everything, the sun is out, the fridge is full of cider so happy days...... UTM

Why even bother mentioning that thing about the bookies??
By rumour mill, do you mean a bunch of sad illegitimates. Who cares what the man gets up to in his spare time!

Do people even go to bookies these days? We know Russ can use powerpoint, I'm sure he could fire up a bet365 account (although obviously he'd be unable to take advantage of the in play offers).

I hope he's not betting on Town to win.

The rumour mill* suggests he quite likes 'aving a bang on the card markets.

You can bet on other things than football.
Hope it's better than the last time we played them.
Some bloke turned up late when we were 3-0 down absolutely off his face and said he'd been out the urine with the players the night before. Judging by the performance there might have been an element of truth to his story!

As long as he turns out to be a good bet for us.

Wasn't that the debut of the infamous Mr Forecast. Edit - I'd forgotten we played them last season, had erased that game from my memory. I was thinking of the 0-4 home defeat the last season we played them in the league before we were relegated. (Shudder)

I seem to recall that drubbing by Crewe saw Tommy Forecast lobbed from about 3 yards out. Impressive, when you consider he was only standing a yard off his line and was 6'4"!

Just googled Forecast. He's still only 30 but is without a club and has only managed 34 league appearances in his entire career, the last one coming in 2013!

We weren't that far off another one last night as the ref had to speak to Collins (Capt.) about Sam Jones after he had already been booked then continued with a couple of rash challenges.
