Okay it's only our 2nd win,

But I believe he can get us out of this.

Tonight we had a lot to be positive about in my view, a great win and a clean sheet.

No pressure for Saturday then back at home.

My fingers are crossed.

Happy Mariner tonight.

U.T.M.

He had to cope with numerous injuries and suspensions so unable to put out a settled side.

When we get most of the injured back we will  ok,

Not world beaters but ok.

That will do for me this season.

Next season MJ will be a far more experienced manager after going through the ups and downs of this season.

Think your last paragraph is the key, we are all impatient and want success sooner rather than later but we have to accept he is just a baby in managerial terms and there is much more for him to learn and improve upon and hopefully he can achieve this with town and the club benefits from his development.

To be given this time results at BP must improve as must the quality of performances and number of goals scored by us!! Particularly annoying given he did lose a home match during his reign last year so was rather hoping that fortress BP would be returning. Time yet though 😄😄

It seems we are all united in wanting Jolley to succeed and I’m pleased Fenty didn’t rush to pull the trigger, as many on here we’re shouting for. Yes he has made some mistakes but he’s still learning his trade and we have to remember that he’s been hampered with injuries, poor runs like that though will only make him better I’m sure.

To go to Carlisle on a Tuesday night and win after 6 defeats on the bounce was a phenomenal result and shows us 1. That he is as mentally tough as he comes across and 2. He hasn’t lost the dressing room as a certain radio Humberside presenter was suggesting.

I just wonder if Jolley can turn this around and get the team back on track,if the vitriolic poster who have been abusing Fenty for employing a man WE WANTED
will be man or woman enough to apologise 🤔


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Promise a man someone else's fish and he votes Labour.

We all hope so he is much loved away from the results -but of course it's a results driven business. We've been crippled by injuries (with a potentially star man out for the Season before it started for one) at a point where he hasn't had the few windows really needed to pad out the squad how he'd truly like.

Might be a case of grinning and bearing it affording a bit of patience for time being just so long as things don't get way too critical. I know it's tough as paying customers being served tripe at times so hopefully we can start to see a few more green shoots of the growth  and potential of his vision ala Lincoln and Franchise FC.

Then we could bear the bad days a bit more. Several losses with 1 goal and the the player's looking clueless and it's only natural that fan's will become disgruntled.

Just so long as we pull clear of any relegation scrap, lower mid-table bearable for now. I hope he can make it to January and pull some Swedish gems out his hat and then all will be well. Yes it was a risky strategy if he's chosen to sit on some of his budget till then -he could pay the ultimate price but he clearly must have thought it worth the risk.

As fans, we are spoilt and all want success.  More than wanting success though, we fear failure and dropping into NL again.

Similar post to ones we used to get when Neil Woods was manager.

Let's not get carried away just yet, yes most of us want him to be a success but we must not jeopardize our league membership, if we are still in this position come December then he will surely have to be let go, we must not do what we did with Woods and Slade and hang on hoping for the best.

Lol you're only allowed to be negative when we lose. After we win 1 match in 7 with 6 defeats in a row you have to believe everything will be great from now on. Being a fickle fan and changing opinion week to week is the way!

Though most here will happily take barely scraping avoiding relegation because expectations are so low.
