He's young, raw, inexperienced - he's learning

We've been 1-0 up in 6 of 11 games - so we start well most of the time... second half needs addressing and I think he will do that; we were much more resilient last night

Board should come out and back him 100% and say he's not going anywhere

Everyone can then calm down

I'm a happy clapper and proud!

Quoted from forza ivano


personally i think we will find pringle & embleton to be more than decent players for this level. would certainly be a big improvement on woolford, who's main contribution to the game seems to be to give short 'hospital passes' to his colleagues, so conceding possession to the opposition. also amazed that vernham , with his pace and trickery, hasn't been given more of  a go. so if we could get those 3 in the side we might stand a chance of playing the sort of passes that thomas wants. we might even then see a bit of his ability as a goalscorer


I think a front 6 of Thomas, Vernam, Embleton, Pringle, Rose & either Hess or Harry would/should be pretty useful at this level.

Gets us much pace and energy in there as poss
Defences hate dealing with pace

Despite his poor finish I think Hooper does a good job on the left

Embleton Clifton Pringle

Sorry, I'd have Cook, Wright or Akheem Rose before Hooper.

I think Embleton is addressing this issue. Should have scored on his debut, did score on Saturday, plus made the chance for Thomas to hit the bar, and i believe it was his through ball that played in Hooper for a 1 on 1 last night. He looks like he can cause teams problems.


I agree on Embleton, plus he can run at players from wide or central positions like a winger would and we know he can finish with right or left foot. Get his confidence up and get him on the ball and we'll get better. We really need to turn one of our forwards into a finisher if we are going to stop wasting chances that cost points though. Get 2 or 3 goals a game and this will compensate for our defence which, despite a top showing last night, still looks below par generally. If they've had 24 shots at goal last night and we've missed three golden chances, we've really got away with it, and we won't usually do that.

I'd add a point about Pringle. I think we need to start seeing him play and produce. He has a quality pedigree as a wide player and if he can come into the picture, complimenting Embleton as a creative midfielder, we must surely start to see better performances and results.

Quoted from Biccys


Bignot was sacked when we'd reached the point of mathematical safety. We're a fair way from that yet.


So what you're saying is it would have been in his interest to lose more games so he could keep employed for longer  

Nothing would surprise me the way this club is run.

Quoted from Grim74
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 🤔


Thought for a minute you were talking about John.

Agreed - if Town can play like they did in the 1st half of the Carlisle away match (with a bit more finishing quality) - they'll be around half way in the league by the end of this month.


Over to you MJ - old guys in midfield is a no-no and the last game has proved it. Let's improve with the young un's.
