If we sack him we'll probably use up all the money we had for transfers anyway lol.


that will be the best use for it.. and one with any football sence could turn our players in too a reasonable team

That's a better use of that money. Any player Slade brings in is unlikely to make a huge impact in terms of points given the amount of dross he's brought in. Whereas the right manager could at least get us enough points to survive with this squad.

In these times he could probably claim constructive dismissal if he doesnt get any previously agreed conditions of contract/employment and sue us !!


Unfair dismissal, not constructive dismissal. Fewer than 2% of all constructive dismissal claims are ever successful.


No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

I'd be highly surprised, even if the results continue to be poor, if they release Slade this season. I genuinely think the club see him as an experienced, safe pair of hands and even if the results are terrible over the next 5-6 games, I think Fenty et al will see him as the best option to eventually returning us to winning ways.

Personally I think Slade will be our manager for the forseeable future - barring any complete disasters (like a home 7-0 humping or similar).

Not saying this is what I want to see, but just what I can see happening, based on how the club has reacted to things so far.

Also I thought the radio interview from Saturday's defeat where he simply can't apologise to the fans and instead trots out some balderdash about "remaining professional" shows he is anything but. I'd have thought an experienced football manager like him would be able to take a bit of criticism from the fans and rise above it, but it looks as though it's clearly already getting to him.

I can remember Town knocking in 7 goals against Luton 22 years ago - so it is probably their turn

Just wondering if there's a clause in the contract that allows us to get rid if he doesn't give us the much talked about top 7 finish, and until we mathematically cannot finish above 8th it's prudent to keep him? Just musing but seems only realistic reason I can see he's still got his job.

I fear he will stay with us, lose the next 2 games , get the sack , after which any new incumbent won't  have time to get any new players in... so it's gonna be a long , hard,  nerve wracking season and I just hope we avoid the drop....

But just imagine,  as I'm sure 1 person is , top six place every season,  4,500 to 5,000 gates... trips to Wembley every other year... what a great life it was....  oh for those heady days of non-league...  

Not my wish you understand...  but I'm sure it's gone through someones mind....
