I'm really not bothered about Jolley leaving at all. I just don't think he's cut out for the managerial game. Perfect timing for someone to come in and have December to look at the players before the window. Dire football, poor results, poor tactics, home support down to 3.5k, little excitement, players playing without confidence.. can't see what all the fuss is about tbh. Club have got it spot on in my opinion..
Praying for a decent replacement though!. Think there's one or two decent managers out of work and one or two in work doing great things in non-league.. so here's hoping the board will spend the right amount of money to get the right amount of managerial talent we need to break this boring monotony we've had to endure since our return to the league..
Sounds like this is just the song for JF.... someone to come in and tell him what a great non-chairman he is
One of the most worrying things about all this is that if rumours (from people who seem to just be able to spread rumours without anything to back them up which is really easy to do on an Internet forum without any comeback) are actually true, that is 2 out of the last 3 managers who have be ‘hounded’ out of the club with a significant amount of player power involved.
If true then that is not acceptable in any way imho.
We've been rubbish in the games I've seen this season
We've been rubbish since we returned to the football league. Lets be honest overall we've been rubbish for years. Its like watching The Walking Dead on TV, its been crap for years, but Ive invested that much time in it I just cant let go.
Well I'm really disappointed I hope those on here who have been calling for his sacking over the last month or so are pleased with themselves. But what has happened to the team that started the season so well top scorers in the division, best goal difference it was all looking so good. I hope it's not player power again influencing the board as we'll never get any where if every time the players aren't too happy with a particular manager they force him out. I did hear in the very early days of MJ's tenure that the players didn't like him or his methods, but that squad's been and gone with the exception of Macca, may be this summer's recruits have just worked him out and decided they don't want to play for him. So where do we go from here I'm sure the squad are good enough I just hope the board can find the right man to get the best out of them. UTM
I said to a mate last night that I thought he was living on borrowed time . Didn’t expect him to be gone this morning though. MJ is an intelligent bloke who id think comes up with a master plan for every opponent regardless of the previous result and performance of his players . Over analysing and complicating things as a result. It’s ended up costing his job as L2 isn’t the place for that . In his perfect world we’d be playing that flowing football and high press that he thought he’d be able to achieve. Unfortunately the ball flies around too much for any of the above . As we all knew when he came out with it 😂 A license my bottom .
