My biggest beef with Slade is his signings, Woolford, Kelly, Hooper, Dixon, Matt are simply awful and bottom of the barrel acquisitions that are either not trying or just not good enough.

It leaves me with no confidence that he will do any better in January with a besieged Non Chairman holding the purse strings, I believe that JF will also have the same thoughts about these players and friend or no friend will be reluctant to trust his manager`s choice in the transfer market with any confidence.

The players out on loan will probably not come back, and unless we can loan a pacy striker, attacking midfielder and left back we are in for a struggle for the rest of the season

You didn’t need to be an experienced football manager to know half the players he bought in were going to be tosh. We all knew. We read other fans forums. If every single poster is telling you a player is a lazy, fooking journeyman, then guess what? They probably will be!

The issue for me is that we keep being told to be patient, that it's a rebuilding period etc, when there was absolutely no need for the player turnaround that we had in the summer.

5 or 6 real quality players added to the squad we had could have seen us push for what JF claims would be a promotion push, instead we've brought in over a dozen!

I could understand it if we just scraped away from a relegation spot and he had his hands tied with a sqaud of no-hopers on long term deals but that wasn't the case.

Some talk of Slade needing to get rid of the dead wood - yet he is the one who has brought all of this dead wood in to the club!  We've given 2 year deals to players who are simply not good enough - it was clear how these signings would turn out if you spent a little bit of time on the forums of their previous clubs.

He has to go.

It was a diabolical decision - made by one man - and it should be up to JF to fund his mates pay off rather than saddle the club with more debt.

Adkins for me.

If he's tied in for a 4 year contract as stated by Golfer then Slade is here to stay. If this is the case then i just pray that they know what they're doing. Every reputable business has a 5 year plan and I'd love to see or hear what GTFC's is

When Fenty appointed Bignot he stated a 6 month rolling contract was the way to go other clubs would follow suit,

Well if he has given Slade a 3 or 4 year deal then Fenty should pay him off with his own money not the clubs.

Instead of reducing the loan debt by 200k, this money should have been used to buy quality as opposed to Hooper, Woolford, Dixon and the rest of the tosh that either hasn't been used or is warming the bench.

I reckon none of those players were on the cheap as they came from league one, particularly Hooper and Dixon as we were pretty desperate at that point to get someone on board.

Speculation of course but I think our wage bill this season will turn out to be much higher than last season.

I've kept silent on this subject up till now, preferring to give Slade time , however time is now up ,its getting to the point were I dread the drive to Gy but do so in the hope that you will see what everyone else can clearly see ,but no, you insist one curbing any talent and playing donkeys who play lets see who can kick the ball the furthest, I missed the Colchester game because I was on holiday so that means I haven't seen a goal scored by us at home since 16th sept(f@cking 2 months ago)Go forth and multiply Mr Slade, you are killing my club ggrrrrrrrrr
p.s
JF grow some balls and sort this mess out or do the right thing and take a very long walk off Cleethorpes pier
