30 minutes later I had the booze out and a one-man party in my kitchen. I shall do the same later, such things should be commemorated...

Doesn't bear thinking about. Can't believe how close we came.


Slade was sacked with us 9 points above the relegation zone. But hey, don't let facts get in the way of the narrative that Slade had us relegated & Jolley came in and saved the day,

Your facts are correct but there was only one direction of travel at the point Slade was sacked.  I was fairly optimistic when Slade and Wilko were appointed - but it was time for him to go.

Jolley hasn’t got everything right but it’s clear that he is building something positive.

I was pleased when he was appointed. Wilko with him seemed a good move too and I thought it was just what we needed after the Bignot debacle. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.[/quote]

Absolutely right. Both men were 100metres above sea level at Beachy Head. One was climbing the other falling.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

It was nearly mid-February and our last win had been back in early December. No win in around 20 games. Deadline day saw our top scorer leave.
We were 9 pts clear due to the sheer awfulness of Barnet and C'field, who luckily for us remained awful. Relegation form, clear as day.

I reckon Slades was more of a floppy disk man.


If you replace the s in disk with a c, I think you will find that equates to a useless tool.

No I thought he needed longer to put what he wanted to do in action, I know he was full of bull sometimes but he brought in some decent youing players and was never going to cope with losing Omar on deadline day.
