It’s made more depressing because we seemed to end last season with the makings of a decent squad but Slade has managed to completely destroy the squad by shipping out players who seemed talented and creative and replacing the with deadwood.  

In over 30 years following Town I can’t remember such a rapid deterioration as this - from thinking we had an outside chance of promotion to looking odds on for relegation.

Yes it is.
Never seen such an unmotivated, under skilled and unbalanced team before. Totally Slades fault.


Batch, Crombie, Moore K, Wiggington, Cumming, Waters, Bonnyman, Ford, Emson, Drinkell, Whymark. Love you all, You are the reason I'm on here. You've had help from Todd, Handyside, Futcher P, Groves, Mendonca, Macca etc etc etc. Up The Mariners!!!!!!!!!

We've shipped out in the past 13 months:

Omar Bogle
Rhys Browne
Shaun Pearson
Craig Disley
Adi Yussuf
Chris Clements
Jamie Osborne
Sam Jones

Does anyone think we would be heading back to non-league if we had even 3 of these?

I think those 8 would easily beat yesterday's Town team, Pearson as rush goalie.

I don't get to many games but when I saw us beat the village people in December I thought the starting eleven might be good enough for the play offs. To be fair there was nothing on the bench and that doesn't appear to have improved.
However, I really believe that if MJ comes anywhere near the hype he'll sort it out. I don't believe Collins, Mills, Rose, Summerfield, McKeown, Hall-J, Dembele, Jaiyseme, Davis and three or four others can't be motivated and organised to restore pride.

I hope you are right.

I know we will be impressed at tomorrows press conference, at least with the new manager, but my God he has taken a huge task on. If he does manage to keep us up then next season will be interesting; if he doesn't it wont bear thinking about.

our team from 10 years ago...
Better, worse or just as bad (league appearances and goals that season including subs appearances for those who played in 10 or more league games):
Barnes (42)
Newey (42-1 goal)   Boshell (40-6 goals)   North (27- 9 goals)
Fenton (42-2)          Hunt (37)                     Taylor (26-5)
Bennett (40-1)         Bolland (35-4)             Butler (21-6)
Atkinson (24-1)       Till (34-2)                     Rankin (17)
Clarke (29-2)           Hegarty (30-4)
Whittle (18-1)          Toner (30-3)
Hird (17)                  Bore (17-2)


Sadly there's at.least 3 that would get into our.current squad.  I'd happily take Bennett hird and newey maybe even hegarty.  Possibly even Atkinson.

I'd definitely take Fenton, Newey, Bennett, Whittle, Bolland, Hunt and North over what we've got now.
