by Michael Jolley in the Grimsby Evening Telegraph today.  Quote " The one positive from Saturday is perhaps it might dampen people's expectations "  Did he really say that !!!!  What part of trying to promote ticket sales, feel good factor and positivity is that all about.  We were 100% shite on Saturday, a complete shambles of a team, put together on a shoestring budget.  Job done Mr Jolley, our expectations are now damper than an Otters pocket !!  I have heard some BS from previous managers and crazy statements but that ranks up there with the best of them.  Maybe if we get thumped at Macc on Saturday the club can take another positive from the game and stock less meat pies in the ground because there will be nobody there.  Why the f**k don't these managers think before they give an interview.  Well let me tell you Mr Jolley just look at how the crowds will dip to see peoples expectation levels, never mind stupid statements.  

This club gets worse every season under the current guardianship..................

Perhaps he was missquoted? Which i know is unlikely by the Telegraph.

It's a bit early for exclamation marks isn't it? Must be tiring.

Nothing like an early morning rant on the internet to confirm to the general public that you're a bit of a loon.


Looking forward to a brighter future now Fenty has gone.

Trolls are insatiable. This one needs a strict diet.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

We finished 18th last year and despite some good signings some fans believe we are up for automatic promotion this season (ive seen the pre season poles btw). Then we lose one game and small sections of the crowd in the main stand are shouting abuse toward the management and players one bad game into the new season.
I think its the above that Jolleys referring too. Rome wasnt built in a day, we are not gonna win the league with 100 points and the team is new and barely played together.
We need to be patient not lose our rag with the management and players and we will come good. Progression starts on Saturday vs The Macc and this post was completely unnecessary and negative.

Translating that quote it means I have crap players no budget so do not expect much this season.!

I cannot wait to get back to waste another 21 pounds.

Not exactly the greatest sales pitch when the next home game is a Cup tie when everyone has to pay.
