I didn’t go on Tuesday oddly enough 🤔

I feel no connection to the players or the management, only the badge these journeymen wear on their chests.  I got offered free tickets to the game but I can't justify wasting time, which is precious at the moment, to come away disappointed. The only game I'll go to is Swindon as I'll be meeting a friend.

I can remember in the Conference, when we go our team back, there was a genuine connection between players and fans, now there's nothing for me.  For me, this was all down to the appointment of Slade and the underhand way it came about.

Nor me  !!!!!!!!!!!


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

No I am just supporting the team,

As far as Fenty goes I am still not a supporter

BUT

I love the club and until you or somebody comes in to  run the club I support Fenty,

So people are actually arguing the Conference was better? It's beggar belief, it really is. Frankly we showed more fight on Tuesday than we had done previously for months because we came back into the game on two occasions. I have absolutely no idea how you can say the Conference was better, trust me I didn't see anybody going "oh excrement, we've got promoted". So I ask the question. Would you rather go back to the Conference and win more games and have an allegedly strong bond with the players and manager or stay in the league under the current regime? I personally can't recall any such bond between the Fishy and Hurst.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

Phew! I thought it was just me being a 'drama queen' - exactly my point but probably better spoken

I think some on here think we should just run away with the league,

Please join the real world.

To give up on GTFC after such a short spell into the season is pretty sad but the choice is yours.

People need to remember like it or not this is a new squad still in it's infancy.

The bignot period was very radical perhaps to radical Fenty went for experience with Slade and Wilco.

To be honest I was relieved as I thought the players seemed as confused as us as to what the lop sided system was trying to achieve.

Slade as not got it going yet but I can see what he is trying to do tomorrow should show us how we have evolved hopefully he will put a strong attacking front line ie Matt and Jones with Dembele and or D.J. on the flanks.

To many people are ready to write us off as usual.
