Our new manager destroyed the one and only Malmo! For a league two appointment, it must be pretty decent!

Really hope this appointment works, but cannot quite understand all of the hype.  His record in Sweden  W4 D4 L10, and yet another non-playing manager, not the stuff of dreams but lets hope he can get our shower of shite moving in the right direction.  Personally I still believe we will be relying on other teams being worse than we are.  This is not a reflection of Jolleys potential, more a realisation of the squad he is inheriting.....  At least if he does screw up, he has the financial nous to invest his pay-off wisely.  Fingers crossed he has the magical formula......

Right now, NOBODY is worse than us. I think Barnet have got 7 points from the last available 12; that’s playoff form. Chesterfield have won a couple recently. Crewe and Morecambe, who are supposed to be garbage, both got great wins last weekend. And FGR will be well safe very soon. That points gap means nothing. We are in dire need of a win. If we can’t save ourselves, nobody will do it for us.

If we are going to stay in this league then our new managers main priority is to make sure we beat Port Vale, Chesterfield and Barnet. Win those games and we are safe.

Just to finish does anyone else want to come forward NOW and join Ipswin and Sydney being critical of this appointment? Because here we are again with the majority agreeing with the boards decision before hindsight! so if this one goes mammaries up let's not  all not jump on the it's all Fenty's fault for a excrement appointment bandwagon eh!


I doubt any of the fans have met Jolley let alone conducted an interview and due diligence into his background and ethos?  

The board have had that benefit together with, I assume, interviewing other candidates. They make the decision and have to take responsibility for their decision.

Fans will ultimately decide in due course whether the board got it right or wrong.

Quoted from Ipswin


I did not want this man, he would not have been my choice. I do not understand the support for him that has surfaced on here. What it is about him to get so many excited I do not know, he does not have the experience we need to get out of the rut we are in and turn things around into a side actually challenging rather than just mid table / survival (if we survive this season that is)

The good things are I suppose that Fenty can blame the fans (surely the stupid twit wasn't swayed by the Jolley brigade on here) and Jolley himself can blame Slade and thus get a stay of execution if we fail to stay up and presumably if he loses the next two the argument will be that Wilko would not have done any better and what do we expect as he's only just arrived

I hope to be proved wrong, I can hear all the 'give him a chance' brigade but we don't have time for that, we need instant results and a totally new man fresh from relegation in Sweden who talks a good video and who does not know the players is going to struggle.



DCIK - can I say that on The Fishy?

Whilst searching for his football credentials it seems there is some pretty grim non-football stuff about his time in Jock land.....  


Catch up will you.

Tough tough job.
If he can turn this lot around for the games that are left then he will go down in history.
Good luck welcome to Blundell Park.
New beginning so let all get behind him and the boys UTM


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.
