The problem is has JF ever got an appointment right? He even got Hurst wrong for the first couple of seasons with Scott tagging along.

If Slade goes it will be 3 managers in 16 months with both Hurst & Bignot having a bit to say about their previous employers when they left.

Sol Campbell seems like a massive tosspot.

I’d go for Phil Brown or McCall. Despite the fact they’re old hasbeens, they’ve at least had some relative success recently. Going for a non-league manager is fine as long as we put the research in, so we don’t end up with another Bignot situation.

I don’t think it’s a good idea to have the senior players and Dave Moore take control, simply because they don’t have any experience of it and there’s over 30 players to take charge of (Dave Moore being caretaker 20 times does not count).

I would take an actual Gibbon over Slade any day of the week, never mind an experienced manager


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I get what your saying but expecting him to jump 2 divisions into a relegation dog fight and a sh1t storm off the pitch would be way too much.



I understand what you are saying with reference to off the pitch situation,as Boston are a very steady ship under the ownership of Mr.Newton.
I wouldn't think jumping up two divisions would make much difference to player management as most of our squad are definitely not up to league football and when Craig Elliott took over at Boston the team were a right shamble,full of has beens that the previous manager had brought in, sound familiar ?.
I'm hoping Town go for this sort of manager rather than someone that is on the slippery slope down to a final payday, as the one we have now.

I believe Scott was the first to tell everybody how much the board support the manager by saying 'we've got no fuckin money'


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.

Yeah agree with that we need someone who falls into that bracket rather than an "old lag". I personally thought we had that with Bignot until he opened his mouth and sent a team out for a couple of games.    

I guess my reticence about the lad from Boston is that he has no time and poor playing resource. If lads like that come up at the start of the season then I completely get it. Who knows tough it would be hard for him to do any worse than Slade at the moment.

Ask people who knew him before he appointed him, usually people don't change their behaviors. I guess you never know with a a manger but JF always seems to fail to do the necessary due diligence when he appoints a manager.

If he sacks Salde he needs to take some conscientious from inside the game, it does feel like JF lacks any trusted football people around him

Lets be honest we're stuck

The only managers who would be desperate enough to come to work for Fenty (and us) are a load of past it old timers who have been sacked elsewhere recently The other alternative is some so-called up and coming young manager no fornicator has heard of from a team no fornicator has heard of either.

Everyone raves about the Cowleys but they went to a club with owners who had money to spend as opposed to one whose owner wants out and his money back.

Hurst (how many years to get us out of non-league?) and Bignot (who? from Solihull what?) were hardly great successes never mind instant answers to our increasing by the day relegation fears

I think many on here would have one or the other back in a heartbeat as opposed to the current incumbent.
