I can imagine that one person might be in denial about how crap Slade is, but for a group of grown and responsible adults to collectively agree to keep him is tantamount to mass hysteria. If he's given a second chance and we fluke a win on Saturday he might end up staying, which would be a disaster.

Don't know much about this guy but he could maybe do a job for us as the next manager......................
Hurst unearths another gem? (Posted today on the BBC).
James Bond Sports Producer, BBC Shropshire
"Shrewsbury Town boss Paul Hurst has a proven track record on unearthing non-League gems – and the latest is Abo Eisa from National South Wealdstone. He’s a young attacking midfielder with a penchant for spectacular goals. Undisclosed fee involved".

| The wife was going away for a girly weekend. I jokingly remarked 'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football' 'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked She said 'Well you already know how to play football' |

I've previously hinted that maybe someone prefers top six every season... 4,500 plus crowds, 1500 plus away fans , Wembley appearances.... of course I'm not naming names or saying it's true.... ☹

Like i have siad elsewhere....probably too costly to get rid now contractually and would think we may have a performance related clause in his contract that we could envoke if he fails to achieve play offs, the stated aim. Be seen to stand behind the man for the rest of the season to maintain some sort of professional standing when we try and recruit our next manager in the summer. ST sales cant be effected until we actually put them on sale so the only thing we are gambling on by keeping him for now is match day tickets...which are only a few hundred over ST sales at the moment anyway....so no massive revenue loss there......and of course our League status, which i think JF would hope we can cling onto virtue of others being worse...big gamble.

If someone at board level, thinks for one minute that we are better off non-league then we are in a biggerfuckingmess than I thought.

Dangerous game to play . Can’t see any of the above happening if he walks us back into the conference

somehow a meeting around a table at BP seems too mundane. Needs to be a concrete bunker in the middle of Berlin.
(I'd edit the text and post a video but can't be bothered)
With a revolver and a couple of bullets.

So what time does the meeting finish, any spies keeping a watch, as I assume once it's over there will be an official statement.
