The word bust should not be mentioned this early in the season with 35 + games to go. Its simple.

I don’t know what to think anymore, my early season optimism has all but gone. In my opinion we have better players than last season but it’s just not working. Why can’t we just stick with a formation and play people in their right positions. We just need to go back to basics and keep it simple. It’s LG2 football FFS, not Championship manager or FIFA19.

Looking at things in a longer term we have 17 league games up to and including 1st Jan,

That will be 26 games played and a fairer assessment of how we are doing and Jolley's ability to change things,

If we are still in the bottom 4 then that will be the time for action,

If we have improved then give him the chance to spend a bit of money on quality signings

God knows what it will cost us if we get relegated so it will be money well spent.

Not really bothered if God knows as long as the board know.

Considering the amount of 2 year plus deals and that a fair few would have bigger budgets than us and are further along with their building process relegation would put the club’s future as we know it in doubt.

Something has to change and pretty quick that's for sure....
Oh and also does anyone know how many of us went to Stevenage yesterday so I can give out the prediction thread results (normally on the match report)

I don't do twitter and facebook

Remember that Jolley comes from a very competitive environment outside of football, the world of finance. I guess no one is more disappointed and angry than Jolley himself at these results. Simply, his character as a human being is someone who likes to win and hates to lose. More so than most. That is why I still believe that things will improve.

Even if the players is his, they don`t have many games together and they are a fairly young team age-wise too. Some injuries on top of that combined with meeting very good teams at the start of the season gives us the present results.
We were just as good as Stevenage yesterday, but were unlucky to let one in behind us.

I still believe we will come good, but there is obviously some problems to sort out - especially regarding our attacking options - we will never score, except on penalties, with Thomas on his own.
The more games  we lose, the players are also affected mentally, and the game against Morecambe is crucial when it comes to getting that nice feeling of winning a game. So Yes, that one will be important, but I don`t want a managerial runaround just yet. We have had too many of those - now we need to support a manager that saved us from certain relegation last season - one that we all have had a lot of belief in and praised Fenty for hiring.
