We've got quantity over quality. The squad is a bit lop-sided and we could do with a couple of attacking players being replaced by defensive ones. Out of the squad, most of them are alright. We don't have many players that are truly terrible that can't get anywhere near the team like we have done in the past (the likes of Terry Barwick, Jermaine Palmer, Damian Spencer, Greg Pearson and Hamish Watson). But then we don't have any really outstanding players either.
I'm not sure if Watson fits into that bracket considering he was never given the slightest chance to impress. incidentally, he's playing in the Australian premier now. I know the quality's not great, but it's certainly better than league 2 football.

I've had a good laugh reading through 11 pages of male masturbation.ker sh.ite slagging off anyone associated with gtfc . Get a grip we're a L2 club , we all want to win every week Buckley style . But guess what ? It's not going to happen . As long as the team tries we can't ask a lot more . Does anyone on here who's actually got any brain think slade just says " boot it from the back and sound the cavalry charge " as tactics ? Ffs

See a lot of people saying they feel disassociated from GTFC compared to the non league years. And I get it, but dare I say that it's partly because.....*whispers*...we don't win most weeks/aren't expected to win most weeks like we got used to down there?

Not sure how many games you have been to this season but there have been times when that is what it looks like he might have said unless the players are all taking the urine and ignoring him.

We've got a few who I'd happily shift but then we've got a few who are potentially pretty good. Average at best sums us up really.
I agree with most of this post. I think we do have a very select group of capable players within the squad although in terms of lopsidedness we are carrying a disproportionate amount of distinctly average to very poor squad members. I do think we probably have enough to stay up although I hope that the powers that be watch this season closer than they did in 08/09 and think wisely about budget and personnel next season.

We had a team that worked for each other and put the extra shift in. It was a experienced squad ESTABLISHED with two prolific strikers who have proved they can score at league levels also a good solid defence. We dominated sides at home and away especially, looked really good constantly in the playoff zone. If Slade can get that winning mentality into these players we might look better we certainly have some decent players imho. Still a new squad very much learning hopefully we will start to click soon.
