Just a thought on Slade, if Fenty instructed him to sell the high earners then, we continued on the winless streak hence eventually Slade getting the sack, do you think Fenty had to give him a little bonus to keep quiet, or won't Slade criticise Fenty.

As for Jolley, I assume he is on the mandatory 6 month rolling contract, if we are finally relegated will Fenty keep or get rid?

The team would have continued to pick up points but the board (Fenty) cocked it up.

They thought we were safe, and when the play offs started to slip away they looked towards next season.

They obviously told Slade to slash the wage bill. They allowed the sale of our most creative players to save a few quid.

They didn't keep their promise of better recruitment in the window (presumably they didn't want to pay the going rate) and my guess is that the remaining players took their foot off the gas. Once a signal is given in professional sport that the manager / non chairman are looking to the next season players realise that they are unlikely to be needed at the end of the season once their contracts are up. The will to win is diminished and team spirit drops. Once the rot sets in it is difficult to stop which is why I have said weeks ago on here we will go down.

This is were Fenty really is a bungling amateur. Everything to him is about saving a few pounds. He never looks at the bigger picture and hence we will be relegated again out of the league altogether in the space of 4 league campaigns. It would have been 3 relegations had it not been for Luton's points deduction.  


NO it would still have been two but one year earlier, cant get relegated from the same division two years running

True, but the warning signs were not heeded. We had a massive flashing red light, yet still somehow contrived to repeat it the next season. It was a great laugh being in a league 2 relegation battle for a full 2 seasons straight.

Phew thank God for that. What would we do without Fenty masterminding the situation to our advantage by being unable to be relegated from the same division two years running.
