Is the rumour gathering momentum. Andy carr has posted this on social media. Deadline say so could just be that but surely hopefully it is the news we all want. Ive never known the fans be so united in 1 thing before. Noone wants slade here anymore

Unreal that if he does go the board have completely copulated up by not getting rid sooner, I don't trust Fenty one bit in appointing a new manager and I certainly don't trust that if a new man does come in that he will be given any money to improve the bang average players we have, except for a couple of ghosts who are stealing a wage.


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.

Jesus’ disciple Peter, picked up a fish to get the tribute money from it, Jesus left his thumb print on the fish, bless'ed is the Haddock.

Whilst i agree Fenty's track record on appointing managers is poor I think our players, with a couple of notable exceptions, are perfectly capable of a top half finish with a proper manager. No need to give a new manager money as the window closes in 9 hours,

Survive this season whilst a new man can assess what he has and what he needs.

I'd add that appointing a manager is very difficult to get right given most, across the divisions, are sacked within 18 months

I'm wondering if at midnight I'm going to typing away something along the lines of;

So Slade is still here.
We've sold Jones and Dembele and brought in a 36 year old crock/18 year old reject.
What is the point!

I better not be, but would anyone genuinely be surprised?

Would fenty sack slade on a deadline day ? If we don't see any incoming then that says to me slade hasn't been given any money to waste as his position is hanging by a thread .

I did feel like that but after last night and having slept on it and ran through the various possibilities I will be astounded if he's not gone by the end of the day. It'll still be a royal f**k up by any standard, on the final transfer window day but that's in short-term thinking, long-term it's a no-brainer.

We may still drop a little further but the fans will at least be behind the team and manager and we'll get through, but hang on to him and we slide down, the crowds drop even more and the hostility keeps building.
A little, tiny bit of breathing space can be bought by the board by sacrificing Slade and the payoff money is how I see it.

Wouldn’t the board meet if there’d been a significant financial offer come in for a player etc though?
