Any optimism has gone

Talk about groundhog day.

Quoted from MuddyWaters

Directors loans account stood at £2.24 million in May 2015, in May 2018 £1.8 million

Equates to around £12k per month, did they fund their loans on a big Glazier interest only mortgage I wonder.

Talk about groundhog day.

It's a good job no one tried to publicly ride the first short wave of optimism in years a few weeks back. If they did they'd be feeling pretty foolish right now and looking a bit of an opportunist..

Quoted from GollyGTFC

When Jolley became Town manager he tried playing 3-5-2. He used it in his first 5 league games before switching to 4-1-4-1. He then tried 3-5-2 for the first game of the season (home to FGR), but immediately reverted to 4-1-4-1 the following week. And obviously he switched back to 3-5-2 for the away games at Lincoln & FGR.

Here's our record under Jolley when he's gone 3-5-2...

P 8
W 0
D 2
L 6
F 3
A 18
GD -15
Pts 2 (0.25 pts per match)

And when he's not used 3-5-2...

P 31
W 14
D 5
L 12
F 37
A 33
GD +4
Pts 46 (1.48 pts per match)

I think those stats say everything about what formation we should be using.

That's balderdash though isn't it. Comparing the record for one formation with the collective record of every other formation. Assuming you're correct in the totals for 352 and Not 352.

What was the record with each of 451, 442, 4141, 4321, and how would you characterise the formation played for most of the game at Palace?

Then how does all that correlate to the quality of opposition played? And the number of players unavailable due to injury and suspension?

When you really start to analyse it, there's not enough data to form any conclusion.

I don't know what the answer is but it hurts looking up at teams like Stevenage, MK Don's and cunting Forest Green.
Even worse to aspire to the giddy heights of Burton and flipping Fleetwood.
I'm lucky enough to remember the days when mates would ring up (on a phone with a curly lead) asking if I was going today only for me to snap at them "intercourse off, I've been nights, it's only Norwich /Stoke / Wolves etc..."
A certain manager said we were spoiled, total balderdash, we haven't been spoiled for twenty odd years.

Lol another person rambling on about past glory. People need to accept that we are a small club not cut out for the modern age of football. We'll always be punching above out weight in L2 because we can't compete with the budget and ambition of other clubs in the league. We got lucky and saw the club play in the championship for a few years because it was enough to find a few gems who would play well for less money but now it's all big wages and foreign imports taking over even in the championship and league one. We'll always struggle to stay in L2, we have for years now.

Just accept that we are a non league club that managed to get into the league but we'll always be lower mid table at best. Time to get over stuff that happened before a lot of town fans were even born lol. Move on, stop talking like we are a huge club   that's been done some sort of injustice by slipping down the leagues. We aren't Rangers or something

Seriously?

Don’t bite mate.

Not everyone on this site is Town. 🤔🤔

The optimsim left as soon as his lordship opened his trap. Year after year it`s the same Fenty speaks and everything turns quickly to rat excrement and like I said the other week his timing was incredible. The lack of transfer incomings on the back of our FA Cup fortune coupled with squad trimming is alarming also

I have to be honest. My view as well. Alarmingly similar to last year in my book.  We think we are safe (any play off hopes this year were always a dream) then players get shipped out to cut wages
I thought we already had a smaller squad than last season although I’m not certain on that one
Still, whenever I look at the renovated floodlights I can be grateful for the cup run !!!!
