YES another sad sack thread, just what this place needs.


Has anybody on here suggested sacking MJ?

The points being made are that he may well being under pressure from the club if results don't improve which is the norm at most clubs.

Anyway, tomorrow sees another game.  Who knows we might come away with thumping win and then the world will seem a much brighter place.

Let's face it, we are staying up, we have some good young players, and the summer is coming soon.  So it's not so bad really.

This time last year I spent every waking hour going through every possible permutation of results for ourselves Barnet, Chesterfield and others trying to assess our chances of staying up, and they were not good.

I remember seeing us thrashed 4-0 at Coventry, and the following day Chesterfield beating Notts County 3-1 to move to within four points of us with three games in hand. They looked certain to overtake us. I remember when Barnet took the lead at BP and I though we had had it.

So, boring though it is, the way the season has petered out early is preferable to the stress riven anxiety attacks that we all endured last year.  

It could be worse!

I meant sad sacks as in the dopey twits who are in meltdown mode over a couple of bad results.

It’s been sooo depressing on here lately. I’m much more upbeat about it all. Much better than last year, I’m even going tomorrow as I feel we’re due a win. We’ve lost away of late but to be fair haven’t played that badly and if we’d got in front with our chances things could of been way different ...... I’m optimistic regarding next season. I will be continuing my support for Jolley for some time yet. UTM

Yeah, I'm absolutely fine with having nothing to play for after back to back to back failed playoff campaigns, another playoff final, 3 managers in one season and a relegation battle. Things aren't perfect, but still plenty of positives to take and yep I'll also be there tomorrow with fairly low expectations but looking forward to a day out.

That’s all right then.

For one moment I thought you were referring to those of us that are getting fed up after 17 years of lower/non league mediocrity!!!


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

To be fair Jolley cant really be blamed if the budget gets you budget players, takes time to build on a budget. Look at Accrington, they didn't run up the league they gave the manager a lot of time till things fell right.

urine poor budget makes it difficult for any manager, cant see Jose or Klop or anyone like that doing a job a town if they had the same budget to work too.

Really makes me wonder how much more Fenty can put into the Budget for next season? 200K gone back into his pocket would suggest that amount at least. So in order for Fenty to get his cash back the team has to be on a shoe string.

Stevenage and Cambridge are the only truly bad ones really since the last winning streak, they make the Oldham and Crawley results seem worse than they are.
