He won't be sacked unless we're in genuine trouble.  JF has banked quite a lot on Slade coming in and making us a stable League 2 side until something happens with the stadium, at a guess.  They're obviously quite friendly with each other and I think JF still believes he is the right man for the job.  

According to what Burnsy and Lowther said on Sportstalk a week ago, he is on a 12-month rolling contract, so it wouldn't be the biggest financial disaster in the world to sack him.  I know some have suggested that a certain shareholder should pay him off out of his own pocket, but I'm not sure if that's even possible unless he was to loan us more money?

Anyway, I wouldn't get your hopes for any news today, or even in the near future.

It absolutely is possible. He just has to donate the club the money.

I was merely saying US the fans would have a whip round in record time to pay him if we never had to see another minute of his crap football.


Apologies if my reply seemed a touch crass. It wasn't aimed at you personally, more that the only person that should have to fork out for this utter farce is the buffoon that brought it to us in the first place.

Mr Fenty will not be bullied into sacking his mate,  

Slade will do what he has done at nearly all his old clubs,

He will get his sales patter working on the board then agree to leave by mutual consent,

Then walk away with his pride in tact and a big cheque in his pocket.

BUT

It will not be for a few weeks yet  sorry.

Reading the stuff on AA thread has just redoubled my thoughts that our slug of a manager needs to intercourse off out of our club. He’s just poisonous.

Talk of change/adapting the way we play.Sounds encouraging but just wait and see the same team and substitutions we have seen before. I don't think we will see anything very different to what we have seen in the last few weeks. We will not see Asante, Clements, McAllister or Clifton while RS is still here. Hall- Johnson and Wright will not return and be given a chance. Looks like we will not be signing anyone else until the summer.

Although I do not think we will be relegated I do think it will be a close thing.


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

Hall Johnson deal is the weirdest thing in an increasingly weird set of signings/decisions. Can anyone explain what was the point of that deal and why we got rid after two days or whatever? It's so obvious he will never play here, so what on earth was the point?

So no wins in 8and Luton up next, yikes!

I wonder if a failure to win either of the next two (Luton and Yeovil) will be enough to get Sladehead gone for goods? Or do we think we will continue to limp on a while longer yet.

Steve Claridge is doing a good job for Salisbury, he would be a good appointment but is very unlikely to move up north.
