Just back from the pub...

Sorry guys - turning on the manager TWO WEEKS into the job is just unfathomable.

Imps and Grimsby fans, what was the atmosphere inside the ground like? I miss a good local Derby.. Hope their wasn't to much hastle or trouble,  I've only seen 1 video which wasnt much, couple people bouncing, 1 punch thrown. Hope it went well

It’s just flipping boring.

Quoted from sam gy

Who would you have gone with, Vernon or Hooper?

No answer on this one yet, but to my mind they were the only other forwards available for selection today.

Basically our squad is very bad, it’s no use slagging off our brand new manager. I’m not convinced any other selection would have done any better today.

Quoted from Ipswin

He's going to do intercourse all. And can we afford to give him a transfer window, we'll be in the bloody Conference again by then

I thought the new manager supposed to be coming in to save us from relegation, that's why every fornicator was whining and moaning about how long it was taking to appoint someone. This bloke is is not going to do that in fact he's going to do nothing different to what Wilko could have done if he had been left in charge until May

Sure blame Slade all you like, it probably is all down to him, but Jolley isn't going to make any difference whatsoever but suddenly people appear to be prepared to accept relegation because 'he's new' and we have to 'give him a chance'

Put it how you like if we go down he's failed just like Wilko would probably have done, nothing has changed

Nah, just messageboard syndrome. People get worked up when reading the same stuff again and again on forums. Where you'd once have had  moan with your mates at the pub and forgotten about by the next day, you can now spend all night reinforcing whichever mood has taken you.

That said, even if we don't ultimately stay up, I'd expect to see a decent improvement before the end of the season, because otherwise, what's the point in making the change?

In Jolley's defence as regards his selection of the usual suspects, I doubt there are many managers who would come in and no select their most experienced players who have hundreds of appearances at a higher level between them. Not to mention that we're not exactly packed with alternatives who look like they might make much of an improvement.

Quoted from Impish2

No gloating from me, a game played in terribly windy conditions. The main difference for me is we coped better with the wind when we were against it than you did. I didn't think Town were that bad but we were def more clinical.

I'd definitely agree especially with the bit in bold, apart from Lincoln having better players than us in many parts of the pitch today they also have a couple of  things in spades that we lack - confidence and belief. They are a club on the up based on some solid investment and a robust plan we are a rudderless shambles ATM on and off the pitch.  

I did worry when I saw the selection but up until the 1st goal we did o.k. then a 10 minute collapse did for us. Even going in at 3 -1 we didn't/don't have the legs to come out and generate and tempo and in the final 3rd in front of goal we look like 6 years old kids with no positional sense crowding around the ball and just snatching at it.

I get MJ has nothing to work with and is still finding his feet but unless they where injured I'm not sure why he took off Cardwell ahead of Matt and RHB to add the anonymous Rose alongside the even more anonymous Berret. Though I would say McSheffery looks like he still has a little bit left to give and if Fox can get fitter he'd be one for next season,

Woolford, Clarke and Collins perfectly illustrate that there are too many players in this team that are either too old or not good enough and inevitably   will take us down, a few weeks ago when I hadn't faced up to reality I spouted I could do another non league stint, now though as it approaches reality I'm not sure.

UTM!

Did you go today?

Of course I flipping didn't which is why I have made no comment whatsoever on individual players

I comment merely on remarks from those who were unfortunate enough to be there, that absolutely nothing had changed, there was a high degree of hoofball and little else. No sign of anything different tactics wise and apparently little extra effort despite the new managers motivational skills

I appreciate he is stuck with a shite squad which he can't do much about signings wise but he has been employed to change things in areas he can affect and to keep us in this league. So far he shows no sign of achieving either and if he doesn't he will have done nothing Wilko couldn't . Of course if he fails he will be able to blame Slade in fact I suspect we will be blaming failure on Slade for as long as Fenty blames the ITV cash fiasco

Ipswin you are just a twit who Fenty summed up perfectly. Guy is anew Manager who quite rightly has tried out some different players and formations. Maybe he is a bit brighter than you, not flipping difficult, and come those crucial fixtures he will have a better idea of his preferred team.

Positively he makes changes and tries to influence a game much more so than other Managers, the big negative is his selection of Matt who is clueless & I honesty think Hooper and Cardwell may prove a useful partnership.

Today’s game emphasised our big problem which is Clarke & Collins, they are so slow in speed and thought that that we continually come under pressure when it’s not justified. No creativity no forward with any form of presence and if Jolley keeps us up he should win Manager of the year.

Id like to add how the intercourse did woolford miss from 2 years in the 1st half. Easier to score and he hit the post
