Jolley has to be given time and it would be crazy to get rid of him now.
However the warning signs were there from the very 1st game.
FGR came here with a settled starting 11 having played the same players for the final 3 pre season games.
What did Jolley do? He completely changed the starting 11 and formation.
The other disappointing thing is I along with the majority of fans were led to believe he had a lot of contacts within the game and hence we could expect some exciting players on loan.
That hasn't happened but could be down to wages,club location etc.
The squad is looking very average with no real pace and to many lightweight players just standing of the opposition and not getting stuck in.

Sorry but I disagree, what's lost is any confidence, any momentum and any belief from the fans!!...

Not the point I was making or addressing, and you know it.

We're a million miles away from what's needed. Shades of Slade.

A lot of fans have been lost in the first seven games.

But it is, we may not win or lose the league in the first 7 but you lose faith, momentum, fans ect then you're fighting a losing battle before you have even put your head above the parapet....

I was clearly talking about relegation/promotion.

And if you can lose the above in 7 games you, by that logic, can win them back in the next seven.

What are we losing faith and momentum in though? Do we really expect anything other than trying to cement ourselves as a league club this year? Especially after last year, Because if we’re expecting more I think that’s a little over optimistic and that was always going to come crashing down.

Poor bloke. We were saying on the way out the ground that Fenty may well be a bit keen this season after waiting far too long last season. We get back on the old tredmill that one man is responsible and there is no chance of that changing anytime soon.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

I have no doubt we have signed better players than we had last season. Many of them have consistently played at a higher level. We have 3 or 4 players to come into the side who will improve us when they get up to speed and i don't think the side we are seeing now will be the one we have once everyone gets fit and firing. RHJ has been a loss, Fox is only just getting fit, Thomas has been unlucky, but is clearly a very good player. Pringle and Embleton also to be integrated. A Rose will benefit from his time away. Vernam coming back from a serious injury is i think why he is not playing regularly yet.  

I'm not happy at our start, but i'm not yet worried.

Early days.
