You know what - this club had a quality finisher 2 seasons ago. We loved him and he loved us. He played against us today, and the poor decisions of people who run GTFC allowed him to slip away from us. Our current manager, of course, doesn't think he's the 'type of player he's looking for'. Yeah, why is that? Because he scores goals? For me, this encapsulates every sad aspect of what has happened to us since we returned to the league. A player truly loved, and who did us proud, playing against us, whilst we muddle onwards with a bunch of so called strikers who don't have that relationship with the fans, and who are less of a goal threat as an aggregated group than Podge is on his own.

For me, this absolutely captures how we've gone backwards since our promotion and killed off any momentum we might have had through mismanagement.


Yep. One of the very few happy memories i have of Town in the last few years is hundreds of fans on the Wembley concourse before and at half time of the game singing the "we got Amond" song over and over while pints of beer were flying everywhere. Think that's the last time the fans were truly united behind the club.

Like the American firm you mean? Actually silly me, the reason we didn't want the Americans in is because Mr Fenty values the fans opinions on the board which we wouldn't get with the Americans. Compared to now were our views and concerns are valued.

I would wager it would come with a covenant, like director for life, as alleged in a previous take over bid.


Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.

We’ll never know the truth about what happened between Podge and Hurst but we do know he was offered a 2.5 year deal in Jan and then rejected it. We then know, he wasn’t nearly as effective in 2nd half of the season in the Conference when people sussed him out and his record against table topping teams was poor. 1 penalty against the top 5. We then know he was offered a one year contract and didn’t like it so sodded off to Hartlepool. Personally, I feel in retrospect that Podge and Omar with Arnold and Toto still here would have made us a very prominent side in L2 and maybe, just maybe if JF had given Hurst what he wanted (a bigger budget and that S&C coach) then we’d have signed better players with the Bogle money and be in a much better position


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

Never employ friends , never ends well.


Definitely.

Although I was trying to imply that if Slade wasn’t friends with Fenty then Bignot may not have been sacked and Slade may not have been hired the next day...

Maybe 😬
