There is no chance of me or the lads I go to the game with getting a ST next season.
Will be lucky to sell 500 if Slade & Wilko are still in charge.
This statement just shows how far from reality Team Fenty are.


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

Quoted from Lincoln Mariner 56
I found the fact that the Board voted to be of interest and this imples that the future of the management team was actually a matter of discussion/ debate.

If they were not considering sacking the pair why would they need to vote?

May be reading too much in this but maybe RS not as secure as rest of the statement suggests.

Least we have some big signings to come so by the time I can attend again, v Luton, we will be playing like Barcelona!!!


There’s more chance of us playing like THE Barcelona Club.

Incidentally, is that still open?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Looking on the bright side,

Don't most managers get the sack just after the board give them a vote of confidence ?

Of course the fact that JF (allegedly) would have to pay out £250k + to get rid of them would never have entered the board's thoughts.....

Reactive statement over the shambles that has occurred recently. Nearly 30 players with probably the oldest defence in league 2, one or two (at a push) creative players within the whole squad, money already squandered on very poor players, not one decent striker, no youngsters given a chance/ coming through.....zero entertainment at home (Swindon apart). Poor decisions both on and off the field. The list is endless.

We'll play out the rest of the season, and probably scramble over the line and just about retain our league status in front of home crowds of about 3000ish. As much as i want to be positive, i can only see this ending in tears with this board and management duo. UTM

Quoted from marinernige


So on the 9th of January , just past half way through the season we've given up on this one , even earlier than Bignot did last season,



But at least Bignot had achieved the objective the Board gave him which was 50 points.

It doesn’t acknowledge that our shittest players are the ones Slade brought in.


Up The Mariners!
