The quality on the shortlist does not bother me ,

Its the quality of the person who will appoint that does bother me.

How many times has he got it wrong.


It was the huge majority on here who wanted Jolley, and we got him.......

Without a setup and environment conducive for success put in place by the powers above most managers would struggle and ultimately fail as they flogging a dead horse.

Only someone who can work wonders with a shoestring budget like when Sir Alan first came could have any monicum of success - at least we got decent youth prospects if we can get someone with great contacts who can pluck us some non-league gems.

I admit that I wanted Jolley.  Thing is though, it is not my responsibility to select a new manager.

Everyone on here wanted Jolley (except ipswin) and he was a disaster after keeping us up. Not been a more popular appointment since Mike Newell. Perhaps it’s time for us all to admit we all know f all.

Erm, not me, I tend to stay out of the arguments about "he is going to be a great manager" or "I don't want him" I wait to see how they do.

It seems to be a recurring theme on here that the budget and managers salary are a hindrance to our success. Now I don't know the budget and although MJ made reference to it , it is still an unknown factor. I seem to recall though that after MJ's spat there was some reference that it was in the top 10 in our league but I can't remember where I saw it. As far as the manager salary is concerned , again none of us know but just posters inferences that it is low. One thing is sure is that there is an enormous amount of conjecture on here over two subjects that actually nobody on The Fishy knows positively anything about.

Who needs a manager, let's just have a poll every week who plays and the system  


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I know f all about cooking.


But when I’m paying  for a meal I expect it to be cooked by someone that fking does !!!


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'

Fenty was quite transparent with the budget, saying he believed ours was between 8th and 12th. It was in one of those interviews he did to clear up the MJ rumours. There’s absolutely no excuse for this squad to be playing in the manner that we are currently seeing.
