I’ll admit I haven’t seen enough of Town this season, so I pray Jolley will turn it around as I really like him. But, I’ll be going against Morecambe, and if we lose I don’t care what decision the board take. Jolley was most people’s choice, so if WE got it wrong, we got it wrong. However, if neither the board nor the fans can get it right, let’s be honest, we’ll be in the conference next season with nobody to blame. Let’s hope it doesn’t come to that........

I’m sad because I like him too. I really wanted and still want him to be a success.

I think we all want him to be a success,
BUT
We can not keep playing like we are doing.
A few wins will make everybody feel a lot better.

So it's the fault of the fans again. We're a bunch of wrong 'uns and no mistake.

The way I see it is we need to have a competitive player budget which clearly we haven't got, as in we never signed that recognised goalscorer that we all could see we needed (we only sign bargain basement for this level).......and how many of our players would get into another League 2 team.
We need a Chairman that can buy us out of trouble if needed and would Mr Fenty be prepared to do that ? doubt it.

But, would you trust Michael Jolley with an open cheque book?

Forget the Cheque book for now, we have got a bunch of half decent individuals that need to be turned into a team, problem is the longer we go without a win the lack of player self confidence will increase.
IMO The sooner the manager shows confidence in eleven players to start games consecutively week in week out, the sooner we get a settled team followed by results, lets start this Saturday by getting behind the players and manager we`ve got

I get what you're saying and doubt we have a top 5 budget, but I just don't get this opinion. We don't make much money despite having the 8th highest average attendance in the league last season. How does that translate as a low budget? It doesn't really add up to me. Sure, some clubs like FGR, Mansfield, Lincoln and Notts County have a sugar daddy that's pumping money in, but they don't all have one. The second part is kind of a moot point. We all know that money won't be given to the club, so why expect it? Even if money was put in, it would be as loans which you'd then take exception to. We have to live within our means and our support suggests that should be enough to be top half, which I expect is about where our budget is. Quite why we don't seem to be able to achieve that is beyond me, but I can't believe that last season 30 odd players was a low budget and we've signed some well known players this season who must be on a decent wage.
