It doesn't matter whether you like Michael Jolley or not; whether you think he is the nicest guy in football or whether we took too much of a gamble on an untried youngish manager. What does matter is that he get results... or he will be sacked.

There is no room for sentiment; there is certainly no long term plan if you cannot buy a result and keep us out of trouble,and he will know that better than anyone.

All clubs suffer bad luck with injuries and suspensions, but it is his job to get a squad together to cope.

I want him to succeed as I think 99% of us do, but results have to improve quickly unless he is to become another managerial statistic.

In my opinion, he seems to have something right as by and large and I'm sure lots will agree. This season we have looked OK if not good in the first half but then poor or very poor in second half. If it was all about how he sets up etc then surely we would be poor all game.

I'm brimming with confidence now that Jolley will come good in the end

The thing about square pegs in round holes is bourne due to having to cover injuries and suspensions sometimes this needs to be tried in order to strike a balance.

We look at it from outside whereas Jolley has to quickly try things in training. His squad is not so big that he as numerous naturally gifted players in EVERY position,

Recent injuries and suspensions have had a detrimental effect on the squad

Harry Clifton, for instance, is still learning his trade so is going to find it tough to adapt to playing different roles.

Defensively with Collins out it as meant trying various players in that position bringing Collins back might not have been the best decision mainly because at his age he has struggled to get back to MATCH FITNESS.

Personally, I would have liked to see more of Akeem Roses pace being used but maybe Jolley thinks he is not ready yet.

Vernam is very workmanlike but plays to deep and seems less effective.

Would like to see him higher up he has enough skill and pace to cause problems but needs a bigger player LIKE Thomas around him on paper this looks good but what do we know?

Pringle looked really unfit one can only hope he gets better he as the pedigree to be up there with the best.

A couple of wins could put an entirely different complexion on the situation  UTM.

Nothing surprises me nowadays at GTFC.......if true......losing our next game away at Stevenage probably wouldn't surprise most people but losing our next game after that at home to Morecambe would be really hard to take for me, especially if we get trounced again.

But it's not going to happen and we're going on a 10 game winning run
