Slade showed utter and complete contempt for every paying fan today, and indeed those who have understandably chosen to stay away, when he refused to answer Tondeur's question on what he had to say to the fans.

An opportunity to apologise for recent performances, to say we must stick together, to assure them he's doing all he can to turn things round, even to thank them for continuing to show up week in week out for nothing in return. But no, not Russ. Just like Fenty he chooses to hear the minority (and it really was a minority) who sporadically called for his head and showed their discontent as being representative of all Town fans, and as such not worthy of his words.

Ironically, he suggested he needed to stay professional at this point - no Russ, you missed the chance to be that and instead showed how little you value the money forked out by loyal fans who paid once again to watch a team that was comfortably beaten.

Professionalism?! Don't make me laugh. Professionalism is demonstrated by competence. If GTFC do their PR on the pitch, where do they do their professionalism? On the pitch as well? Load of cobblers.

Here's a message for you Russ....  there's a road out of town.... most folk here would love you to take it.... but you probably want to squeeze the last penny and life out of our club... the one that means so much to us... it's blatantly obvious now that you couldn't care less and just want your own comforts... oh... I'd best say allegedly... just in case... but I for one will be glad when you've left ( again.... )

If we can't afford to sack you Slade do the decent thing and fall on your sword.You say their is no rush to make signings and it is ok to wait until the summer-is that because you haven't been doing your homework on players like last summer . We do need new players but I doubt you are the man to find them' If you have ever thought anything of this club now is the time to show it-just GO before it is too late for us. You are not the only one to blame-another is the person who appointed you. Please do the decent thing.

Of course we can afford to sack him. How much do sub 2000 crowds wipe off the balance sheet?
