We had 5 players on the pitch today that came from relegated sides. The York duo were part of a side that got the lowest points total i can ever remember. Clarke from relegated Coventry. Hooper and Kelly from Port Vale. Not to mention 4 loanees at various stages of the game. When the management is bringing in such winners, sanctioned by the board, you can see why we are in the mess we are.

If that wasn't bad enough, we have had three managers and two caretaker managers in less than 2 seasons. We are about to employ our 4th.

If you set out to purposefully destroy a promoted team, you couldn't have done a better job of it.

Absolutely this. 18 months later we are still picking the relegated York centre midfield duo. If you put aside every other contentious issue, this would still be a significant aspect of our current plight. Going on with this arrangement is just insane. What do the board and management expect will happen?

It might as well have been Slade talking, we must work harder, what the intercourse have they been doing for the past 12 games then.

Same shower of excrement today.

Time to flipping man up and say it how it is and make some changes and leave the crap out, Dixon, Osbourne, Berrett, Matt, Hooper,  I wasn't that impressed by Hall-Johnson either.

Time to play the young loanees even if we lose I would much rather watch them play.

If Clifton can't do a better job than Berrett, we may as well terminate his contract tomorrow, as he's no future in the game. I haven't seen him make one incisive pass all season, and if he ever scored, i think i would faint on the spot.

I wanted to believe in Wilko like I believed in him as a player he always gave 100% for the shirt.As soon as I saw his team selection my heart sank the usual wasters in the matchday squad Clifton and the Villa kid should have been a brave new dawn.The 90 mins against Cambridge should be his last involvement from the dugout the bravery he showed as a player clearly hasn`t moved across into coaching/management.The interview full of buzzwords and BS about hard work.You don`t need to work harder Paul you need to do the right work and that means leaving out the matchday squad the likes of Vernon,Kelly,Dixon and Hooper who are 4 of the worst players most of us have ever seen.You let us down Paul and worse still you let yourself down had you got a result yesterday with kids BP would have had 5k on Saturday all backing you to the hilt.No backbone,no desire, no hope and little effort

For all Bignot's faults, he worked this one out pretty much straight away.

I've no idea what McAllister looks like or how he plays or even if he's actually a real person, but he can't be any shitter than Berrett. Incredibly, he'll probably end his 2 years at GTFC with as many  permanent managers as league appearances.

'We want to make Blundell Park a place where people don't want to come' - pretty sure he meant away players not home fans.


That might mean the home players too. They don’t seem very keen when they are there either.

I was just relieved we didn't at least have Clements available to be on the bench yesterday. Who'd want a cemtre mid capable of scoring now and again?
