The reality

Last season when looking for a manager Micheal Jolleys name came up. He  was a risky yet interesting shot. Most fans liked the sound of him.
John Fenty took a punt on him. The man delivered and to the delight of most fans Jolley remained manager.
Now there are big shouts to replace this man without giving him the chance to sort the mess out and calls for Fenty to go despite doing what 80% of supporters would have done.
Don't get it!!!

Perhaps it's the last 16/17 years of failure that people are upset about!  It clearly isn't working! Hope this doesn't turn out to be another Russell Slade or Neil Woods situation!!

Yes MJ was a popular choice but it’s hasnt worked out unfortunately, can we risk another relegation to non league.

Which is what we'll get year after year with the people currently running the club.

MJ is just a symptom.

Yep, after 10 games it doesn’t look good. But as I said on another post, we have no money, we are in the relegation zone. If we get someone else in what’s he going to do with someone else’s team and no money? I don’t think even Pep could do much. I think we’ve got to dig deep, stay together and turn it around, I think that’s the only option.

The reality is that we have a well qualified coach for a manager . Two totaly different things...thats the problem. he is out of his depth and it will not improve enough to keep us up unless we get a manager in

Absolutely spot on Vinny,

You say we cannot afford another change look at the gates dropping like a stone even with a ticket offer on.
Can we afford to keep MJ is the question.

Spot on, coaching qualification is based 90% on theoretical situations within a classroom environment and not on the training ground. Management is a totally different animal which means inspiring confidence and getting the best out of players by means of man management, both of which re not happening at the moment.
I like Jolley as a person and i think he's an honest guy, but at the moment he's lacking the necessary skills required for a manager.

What choice did we have? Other preferred managers (to some) had said no.

Of course we got behind him,as we will the next manager and the one after that. We wanted him to succeed, but it hasn't worked. Looking back to last season, we were incredibly lucky to survive really - it could easily have gone the other way and Michael Jolley would not be here now.

I am beginning to think that too much theory and not enough experience of lower league football will be his downfall. It is such a shame as he seems a genuine chap and that speech he gave last season gave us hope that he really could turn the club around, but as ever results mean everything.

He would make a great chairman. Perhaps thats the answer - him and Fenty to swap jobs.
