Could be wrong Abdul but I thought Clements was on 18 months when he joined so would have 6 months left? Either way can't see him being paid off. Looks like he will go to Barrow in Jan assuming he does ok.
Ah yes you're right, I was thinking of Osborne's deal.

Interesting point about Jamey Osborne and I'm tempted to agree, people are saying about how much we'll improve when Osborne is fit but in pre-season before Osborne got injured there was some talk of Slade not really fancying him, if that is the case then when fit Slade won't really play him would he?

I think the over reaction is down to having players in the center of the park who just aren't good enough, we haven't seen anything of Clements to rule him out replacing either Berret or Summerfield in what is the most pedestrian center paring since Grimsby Pete was in shorts (only kidding Pete).
Also coupled with the overreaction is the statement from Fenty that he sacked Bignot to bring in Sladeball to take us to the next level. The football on offer isn't next level stuff but more of the stuff that saw us drop out of the league with similar type players, similar style of play, and lack of game plan.
So you have two concrete reasons why people are over reacting, from what we see and what we were told.
You would soon complain if you went to a restaurant that claimed to sell the best food in town served by the best looking topless waitress, and then you go and the food is cold and uncooked and the topless waitress are grannies and all have saggy sue's down to their knees, you ain't gonna eat it and you ain't going to enjoy watching those granny waitresses swinging those saggy mammaries around, unless you are Hammo 16-99.

Where is this " Slade doesn't fancy Osborne rubbish coming from?
All it came from in a thread pre season was someone saying they didn't think Slade would favour him.
That's all. It was a posters opinion. Can't remember who.

Exactly. Slade has singled him out for praise a few times! Anyway, John Tondeur & Gary Croft just hit the nail in the head re-Clements.

Missed an early chance on 3 minutes.
Interesting that Paul Bignot on the bench for Barrow

He's well over weight and can't be arsed. Bad attitude. Whether he thinks Slade likes him or not he needs to get fit. Given the size of him would he have featured today? NO

In think it's worth mentioning to those who are ludicrously claiming it's the worst ever and that they want Slade out, that there is a sense of perspective to be considered. A look at the league table after 10 games will see clubs of similar size or history making a worse job of it than we are. Clubs recently in league 1 even, whilst we wallowed in the conference - something a lot of folk on here seem to have forgotten in their declaration that the club is 'rotten to the core'. Go tell it to Chesterfield, or Port Vale fans, who enjoyed L1 football last year and are now on their a*se at the foot of the league table, and turning over loads of average players. Or Colchester perhaps, or Crewe - also in L1 a short time ago. Similar sized clubs all, and all below us. And Carlisle. Oh dear. And Yeovil. Not going great for them is it. I know it's a pretty shabby looking team and style of play at present, but Luton have only got 5 more points than us and they've been back in league 2 for 4 years, spent some wedge and get 8k crowds.
And what about the Mighty Imps spreading fear and dread around the grounds, they could only manage a goal less draw against the so called Minnie Mariners today with the most gifted managers that the Worlds ever seen
