Why would Slade be going anywhere? We've got a brand new squad and we have inconsistent form (and that includes wins as well as losses). The league has not even begun to settle down and there's every chance we could come good.

At least someone see's sense tonight and takes a pragmatic view on current form. Still early days folks. We'll get a more realistic picture round about December time time were we will see our true form? Two wins on the bounce last week and The Fishy was all lets get behind the team. We lose today and its nothing but point the finger of blame lets get rid of Slade etc....... FFS get a grip you bunch of half glass full tw@ts  

Glen Downey, what a player he maybe was assuming he actually existed thats still up for discussion.But that winner against Wrexham was fantastic.

Totally agree that the over reaction to win or loss is unbelievable. Said a few weeks ago that I expect us to have strong second half of the season and still believe that will happen. Yes we need to improve but no outstanding sides in League 2 this year and it will be some time before we can really judge where we will finish.

Personally, think we are not strong enough this year but after 6 years in the Conference I can be patient and accept that it will take time for us to be pushing for automatic promotion but play offs you never know!!!

Either way off for a beer and just hope we win next Saturday so next week's pint tastes that much better

This current Town team is rubbish, anybody thinks any different and they are deluded.  Have we played one decent game all season !!!  Hoof ball Slade will serve up the same rubbish all season long.  It is no coincidence that this man has never gained a promotion in some 20 seasons in football.  As ever we will put up and shut up and just accept the crap we see week in week out.  I can totally accept all those fans who have chosen to stay away until Fenty leaves the club.  We have no ambition, no direction and no drive.  Our support is dwindling game by game, and a bad home defeat by a very average Lincoln team could be the last straw for many a town fan this season...............

Cool.

The team isn't rubbish by all means. If it was it would be rubbing shoulders with FGR et al within the bargain basement of teams in this division. Same old excuse, lets blame Fenty, Slade blah blah blah. It's getting beyond boring now. Too many fans keep churning the same old balderdash every week and are so fcukin negative to the extent it boils my pis$. We win some, we lose some and are a club in transition from the Conference.  

How many people are actually happy with the squad we've got and don't think they're rubbish? Genuine question because everyone I've spoken to has said we're average at best.

Perhaps might me as a result of the team turning out negative performances,even when we win we are no great shakes.

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.

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.
