Jolley Press Conference - YouTube link

The way I see it........Jolley will be a hero or a total disaster........just can't see any middle ground with this guy.

Let's hope for a hero

Fantastic 15 minute interview with Matt Dean - for anyone left wanting more after the presser.

energy
clarity in how we play..
energy, focus, clarity..

those will be his buzzwords ....

regards a preferred system ...." my preferred system is the one that wins the game" ... no set formation or style needs to assess the squad and select a system to suit the tools he has...quite liked that answer..

and regards the final question he said alot without actually saying anything....i dont like those sorts of answers,overall i think he has an air of politician about him....


oh..his Gran use to live in GY and he used to play in the sand pit at the boating lake when he was young so understands the club and area...

erm...no you dont.

I am definately staying on the fence with him for now.

Matt Dean was ganged up on and pummeled last time he was at a conference there he certainly grilled them both in-depth. to be honest, Day stayed calm and Jolley answered every question honestly which was refreshing.

They probably had Fenty tied up around the back of that screen with a scarf tightly wrapped around his mouth only kiddin lol.

Seriously good interview on both sides hope Mike as a bit of luck about him we could really do with some of that as well.

Quoted from HertsGTFC

Thought he came MJ came across well but Day was a bit “vanilla” throughout. Not fussed about the Championship bit as our board tend to say sh1t for effect.

My only gripe is that they should have done it later in the day considering where we are I’d have liked to have seen him on the t4ain8ng ground early doors instead.

Let’s see what Saturday brings.

Yeah...perhaps the club could have broadcast his first meeting with the lads at Cheapside...that would have been ..oh..err..hang on

Bloody 'ell, he hasn't even picked a team yet.

Well Phillip Day certainly came across better than Fenty would have, when Matt Dean asked about Paul Wilkinson Fenty would have snapped back "to suggest he had to work with Paul Wilkinson is absolute poppycock! This is why we have a failing relationship Matt because I don't like your questions"

Bloody 'ell, he hasn't even picked a team yet.

Too long in the tooth now bud and the board have finally ground me down to a level where, my admittedly natural pessimistic outlook regards GTFC, has now turned to pretty much cynicism about everything GTFC.

I am desperate for MJ to work some wonders, re-energise the club, the support, unite us all and give us a team to be proud of but i am currently too mardy with it all to just jump on his bandwagon because of some buzzwords, hazy memories of playing in a sandpit and a masters degree.

Enthusiasm is at an all time low thanks to the B.O.D.    

That's just how i feel.  Sorry.

facebook interview was far more illuminating. i don't think we will be getting the fast attacking football this season, simply because he hasn't got the players nor the time to change things drastically

in fact i think the thing that comes through loud and clear from his videos, interviews and the v. informative posts by dougie j is that jolley constantly changes his line ups and tactics depending on who we are playing and how they play.

i also suspect that there will be 1 or 2 out of contract signings fairly quickly, presumably from sweden. if andrew fox is out of contract he's be the strong favourite to be first in, to give us a bit of pace and endeavour on the LHS

So many on here have a love-hate relationship, in the fact that so many love to hate everything about the club.

I agree that 80% of past year has been awful, and people are correct to moan.

However, the past few days have been positive, made a positive appointment, made a positive statement about the appointment, then made a positive comment in the press conference, and we still find a way to moan?

All i will say is well done to every one involved, and i hope it works out over the next 10 games, and we can all get excited about the future of the club again

It's not moaning Jarmo, it's cynicism born of experience. It's not just 80% of the past year that has been awful is it? We have been pretty bad as a club for a long time now and i feel pretty much as Moosey does, even though i'm usually a forgiving sort. My natural moderate tendencies have been tested to the limit and like some, i feel that the club has now used up all my good will. I don't hate everything about the club. It pains me to see us constantly struggling.

The manager will get my 100% backing at BP as all managers do, but experience has taught me not to go overboard with gushing praise until we see some evidence that he is the right man for the job. Like Moosey, i'm sorry if that doesn't sit well with the prevailing view, but it's how i feel.

Maybe it's my advancing age and my arthritis playing up in this weather.
