Quoted from Swansea_Mariner
I don't think we should be scared to go below the national league to get a new manager, everyone at every level is pretty much a gamble.

Slade is like a death of a thousand cuts, slow and agonising. Frankly I'm just waiting it out until it's over, hopefully it's sooner rather than later, but I think it will take crowd levels to dwindle further to force fenty to sack his mate. Maybe a gate in the 2k level for a league game will set the alarm bells ringing.


I think there'll be barely 3000 there next Saturday. If we lose, play terrible or get 0, we'll fall to sub 3000, and then things will get very difficult. I really hope it doesn't happen, but something has got to change. The system, a few players, I don't know. Russ will have to work it out because it can't continue. Not if they want people to support and turn up and pay home and away. What a crying shame it is.

Quoted from ginnywings
The standard of player Slade has attracted this time is way way down on the standard last time. Is there a reason for this? Is it down to budget or the way the game has gone?


I strongly suspect that this is a case of 'you get what you pay for'.
Don't you?

Looking at what he inherited I would imagine the payroll budget is an issue I would imagine we won’t be seeing Clements, Asante and Tombola again as I suspect they have been loaned out as an opportunity to garner some interest.

Well I've just whatched Republic of Ireland and they were dire, it seems Martin O'Neil and Slade went on the same coaching course, hoof it from the back, hope to get a throw near the opponents area, big throw into the box and hope to win the second ball.

I have no confidence in Fenty finding the right man for the job.

So it makes no difference if Slade stays or goes.


PH was a good appointment so he doesn't always get it wrong!

And people say our managers are negative.....

The difference being that “avoiding defeat” away is essential in a 2 legged tie. At some point in a 46 game season you have to be a bit more adventurous.

PH wasn't the appointment though. He got left here because of another.

By the law of average if you make a enough bad decision you are bound to make one that is not so bad,however Scott was one half of that decision,that worked out well didn't it.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

I'm not so sure we can blame it on the budget. Woolford, Clarke and Dixon have all played at a decent level, and must be on a decent wage. Add them to the other 30 odd players we have and I imagine our wage bill is a lot bigger than people expect.

Did he appoint Hurst or “Hurst & Scott”? Did he appoint Hurst when Scott was binned or just “left Hurst to do the job”? Let’s face it at club level joint managers don’t usually work so it could be argued getting H&S in was not a great decision in reality. We only came good when Scott got binned.

Not only is his recruiting record mixed but did he really need to sack Sir Alan 3 when he did ?
