MJ Interview

Quoted from CodHead

Were you saying that after the Notts game?

Are you saying he got a pay rise after that game?

I'm saying he didn't command the wages an experienced manager would have wanted and that, as well as selling his ideas and himself to Fenty, his wage demand inevitably also had a bearing

Just this manager??

Lol you not been on here long then?

I don't have an agenda against him at all as I have already explained (although perhaps I used some larger words than you are used to so you didn't understand) I simply did not and still do not buy into the ridiculous rose-tinted spectacles, grasping-at-straws, for felicitations sake save us from Slade's member-ups, desperation fenzy, that surrounded him when his name was first muted.

Totally unfair, I was 100% delighted with and supportive of the appointments of both Newell and Slade

We could have Pep Guardiola as our manager and a billion in the bank, yet you'd still criticise the team. A bit of positivity would be appreciated.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion but certain people in earshot of the dugout have probably cost this team a few points over the years.

Our longest serving manager in the past 20 years, the only manager to give us a promotion in the past 19 years was harassed by these same people. He's now 2 divisions higher, with a core of his squad here playing in either League 1 or possibly the Championship.

The people shouting abuse every game at every misplaced pass, skewed shot, lost tackle wouldn't know a good manager or player if it hit them in the face. I don't sit in the lower much these days but wish the main stand would direct their abuse at the opposition or the officials like they do in the lower!

We're a small undesirable town in the 4th tier with a low budget - people need to get real and back the boys.

Jolley is realistic - he never mentioned the mass exodus after the 4th goal because it wasn't unreasonable. Whereas some of the comments 1hr into a 46 game is unreasonable, at that point we were 0.1% into the league season - hardly (and hopefully not) a sign of where we'll be in May!

There are 70 hours in a football season, so 1 hour into 1 game is 1.4% of the season!

Professional football is a bear pit.

Win and you are a hero. Lose and you will get hammered. If the main stand regulars were shouting abuse when we were winning then that is out of order. If they were shouting abuse at 4-1 down at home in the first game of the season then that is fair enough.

If you are in the professional game and over react to crowd reactions then you need a talking to. Believe me it happens at EVERY single club in the country bar none.

If we win the next game it will all be forgotten. if we lose then the stinging flak will persist. It is just he way it is.

Many years ago a victory was met with a "well done lads" and a defeat with "hard luck lads." Those days are well and truly over.

We are not a "small town" by any stretch and not undesirable either come to think of it.

There are some simple facts from yesterday. FGR have been in the league one year and quite comfortably outplayed us and had a plan. At no time did we look capable of beating them and at no time did we ever look like 'executing our plan' whatever that was. MJ earned some credits last season but they will soon be used up if that performance is repeated. We look at least three players short of what's needed.
