Lets have a dose of reality shall we!

How do you define bigger when smaller towns(population wise) are above us unless you're looking to history ,which unfortunately counts for nothing when you're propping up the league.

As for why the players are not performing- I can only assume they are not up to the playing standard required and results don't lie.

As for the reason why can't we compete , the same as above. Poor decisions and bad management from the board down to the last three managers (I include Hurst for breaking up a winning team) also count for our demise.

If we do survive the drop at the end of the season there needs to be wholesale changes in attitude from the club as well as a big clear out of non performers.

This is unfortunately the reality of the situation but without any easy fixes anytime soon.

As was I Rodley!

So do we just roll over and give up with 7 games and 21 points to play for?

We've pretty much rolled over in the majority of the last 18 games.

I do admire your optimism but I have not seen anything to suggest we can get the wins we need.

In the second half we were lucky to get away with conceding only 4 goals, and having to rely on the likes of Woolford and Vernon is very depressing.

That psychologist M.J. has brought in as got to get those players heads right it's not easy most of us think we are doomed but it is very much in our own hands JUST ONE frigging win next weekend would really boost our chances.

                                                                       Please for christ sake it's easter even that lad came back from the dead.

Three games under Jolley, 1 point against a rival and 2 loses against top teams away from home. Let’s wait until we play our home matches against much poorer teams before we totally panic shall we? UTM

We only have to match Chesterfield and Barnet. In fact we don’t even have to do that as we have a six point cushion.

I understand Chesterfield have two games in hand (after they play today) but I’d take points on the board everyday of the week.

Reality ! Well for a start there are far too many on here with delusions of grandeur regarding GTFC. There is no point in living in the past ,whether up or down the divisions.We can all blame the directors or management but the reality is the players that we have are not performing to a standard that is satisfying to watch or produce the expected results .The standard of football in our league,as I have said in previous posts,is atrocious whereas I believe we often watched more entertaining matches in the Conference.Unfortunately the status of being in a lower league really offends those who believe we should be high flying. The reality is that we are a small town with a low catchment area and very limited on investment both on and off the field. For the sake of local moral I do hope we stay up but it's not the end of the world in reality.

Erm, who employed the manager that employed the crap players?
