The moment Slade was appointed I was calling for him to be sacked, I knew what was coming and I've always been very vocal about it on here, however every moment leading up to this point I always had that bit of hope. Maybe he will turn it around, maybe he will go and prove me wrong. Tonight I give up, I have resigned myself to the fact we will be relegated if we survive this season, we will only be relegated the following season, in one transfer window we have allowed 3 of our best 4 midfielders leave the club in some fashion and not replaced them, we've signed 4 more loanees, that only leaves room for one more loanee on match day so who misses out? Matt, DJ or Kean? No win in 10, 3 points in 30 only 3 goals scored. At least under Woods the hope remained till the last few weeks.
I will obviously continue to support my team but I can no longer see the light.

It reeks of 2008/9 and 2009/10. A massive squad of average at best players, loanees left right and centre, no cohesion, no team spirit and making it all up on the hoof in the hope that it will somehow come together. Team and formation changing weekly and still experimenting 31 games after pre season. Any decent players getting the fook out of Dodge as soon as they can.
I really hope for the sake of the fans that it comes together and we move up the league to safety, but it all has a feeling of deja vu about it doesn't it?

How do we get our club back? Tbh it might be an unpopular view but I would take relegation in order to get Fenty and Slade out so we can start to rebuild our club.

Looking at the thread title I got a little excited thinking RS had started posting on the fishy.

To be honest I thought it was a safe appointment and half of me hoped he'd come to play the football he did the 1st season he was with us.. I guess I was wrong on all of it.

I've really had enough. I can't believe that any club would deliberately manage their way to this situation. The thought of carrying on with this regime terrifies and disgusts me.

If you should change your mind about a season ticket next season Crusty, don't forget to budget for the price increase!!  |

12:30 Burnley v Manchester City All 15:00 AFC Bournemouth v Stoke City Brighton & Hove Albion v West Ham United Leicester City v Swansea City Manchester United v Huddersfield Town West Bromwich Albion v Southampton 17:30 Arsenal v Everton All these games are live on Saturday in glorious HD using IPTV. GTFC need to start dishing out some effort and passion to entice spectators to Blunder Park. The current dross and hoof-ball being dished up are appalling to watch. Would sooner watch GTFC but is it really worth it at the moment? |

IMO the football at BP is dull but this 'hoofball' label simply isnt true. |

I seem to recall that when we went down, us and Darlington used more players (and loanees) than any other teams in the top 4 divisions. If my memory serves me right we used 42 and Darlington 43.
It's a bad sign and the similarities are alarmingly close

agreed, it was earlier in the season but it hasnt been correct for weeks and weeks now. we are just dull, slow, lack penetration and off the ball movement, lack leadership and passion, have central midfielders who never push forward to score, strikers who never score etc etc. But we have cut back on hoofing it into the channels as a deliberate tactic. |

Even if we pick up the wins we need to stay safe, there's still no entertainment.
It's a joyless time to support the Mariners. Wins aren't positive or dominant - they're usually scraped - and defeats are dour and (sometimes emphatic). Draws feel like defeats given the dearth of chances we're creating.
So if we finish 17th and Slade is given more funds to repair the squad he signed and broke inside a few short months, I won't be making any more effort to be there next season. I'm not funding a management team that wastes my money like that.
I'm not going again this season while he's in charge. I support the club but not the regime.
I don't think the players respect Slade and Fenty has gone beyond the point of no return so he's kept on digging. He'll be hoping and praying Russ at least keeps us up - and if he does, there's still nothing to celebrate.
