I'm not advocating the departure of Jolley & Limbrick but, bearing in mind Mr Fenty's assertion that managers are only 6 games from the sack and we're nor 8 without a win, surely there's got to be some kind of improvement shown by the end of the season?

If nothing else, Harry Davis as a holding midfielder? Really?

Not being in a relegation fight will be deemed progress by some.  Even if the dreadful poor run continues, Jolley wont be sacked.  It will be a case of 10 games into the next season, and if no sign of progress, he will be gone.

Id personally sack him now.

Controversial statement...but I'm with you, after the substitutions today and the line up at the beginning of the game I'd actually say I'm starting to think Jolley is pretty clueless tbh..

If we do not win any of the last 5 games and that looks possible,

It will be 13 games without a win,

I think he needs to win at least one or two to keep his job.

BUT

Who will score the goals ?

Jolley is safe and will be for a while, as the club's sole ambition is to stay in the EFL and nothing more as long as he "achieves" that then he'll be in a job long term.

I am sure you are right as long as Fenty is in charge Herts.

It's all about context. Games right now are about as unimportant as they get. 12 months ago every match was critical. The only way we'll keep moving forward is to stick with the option of continuity.

Maybe so....but we’ve got absolutely nowhere this season and without the couple of decent runs, we would be in the shite.

You could say that about just about every team in the bottom half.

If the start and end of this season was like the middle part we would have been title contenders.

We had a great December and a great February. The rest of the season has verged from disappointing to catastrophic.

Deeply worrying.
