Quoted from Lincoln Mariner 56
[b][/b]Falling away in the second half appears to be a recurring theme and thus Jolley may need to consider his approach to pre-season which appears to have resulted in our fitness levels being behind that of other teams.

Other than the results my real concern is the constant change of formation and the selection of players out of position, the latter being my biggest bug bear.  

Formation and fitness may well turn out to be one the type of problem sorted out by playing games so by mid October hopefully this will be addressed.

MJ has consistently said he has yet to play his strongest team and with fitness issues for Welsh and Pringle we may also be waiting until October for that but in the meantime MJ square pegs in square holes would LMO help address some of our current deficiencies.


Don’t think falling away has been obvious in terms of fitness. Harry Kewell commented that we were clearly far fitter that Notts County and we upped the tempo v Lincoln in the second period.

I do agree with the need for square pegs in square holes but do we have a fit & available right or left back? The recruitment process obviously didn’t find any wingers or we may not simply have looked for any?

I do. It's exactly what he said and he's always very controlled in every word he says in interviews. If I'd have gone yesterday and left early I'd be really pisssed off about it. Jolley doesn't make throwaway comments.

Then again, you didn't spend any time or hard-earned cash to go so it's easy for you to blame the fans for getting their knickers in a twist by leaping to his defence. I've said it before on another thread, the club don't like the fans and Jolley is seemingly getting drawn into the fabric of that malaise and quietly building himself a bunker mentality, and I really think it's the wrong avenue to go down for a young manager so early in his career..



I don't agree but I think the club doesn't like the fans having and voicing an opinion about how the club is run.

Yes probably should have thanked all the fans that travelled. Don't hang him for it I am sure he meant no disrespect.

Probably missing the obvious here and going to look a bit of an idiot (nothing new there then) but who or what is LMO?

Perhaps he meant IMO (in my opinion).

Ah, didn't think of that . I just read it as "would LMO help address some of our current deficiencies." as a question.

I wonder what the most used words in GTFC history are in terms of describing the team. I bet you it's "embarrassing"


I blocked seeing red ticks years ago so go ahead   If I don't reply to you then i didn't read your replies
