Quoted from Tommy


Based on what?

I don't think any of us know how Anthony Limbrick/Graham Rodger/Stuart Watkiss/Paul Wilkinson would set a GTFC team up. He was assistant manager, so he wasn't calling the shots. If he was leading training sessions, he'd have been tailoring them to work on what Jolley wanted to work on or upcoming tactics chosen by MJ etc etc. He would've had input, but ultimately the final call every time would be the Manager's.

I'm not suggesting he'll transform the team completely now, but my point is none of us really know.



It’s worked twice in 40 years. Dave Booth and John Cockerill.

Quoted from OllieGTFC
No one will be rushing to apply for the job maximum they will get us 18 months then be out of the job, cheap option it will be mark my words


They will get longer than that if they hit the ground running with some football nous about how to win games, and we don't get any more of this crap about it takes 2/3/4/5/10 years to build a side good enough to get to the playoffs and another 3 seasons after that to get promotion.

OK so someone is going to jump up and down now and say times have changed but can I just refer back some decades to Mr McMenemy who came here and hardly changed a person in the team he inherited and by ability turned them into champions.

I'm not suggesting that would happen but I am suggesting that the more people keep saying this "be patient, be patient" tripe like we heard from Hurst and Jolley ....... the more patient we have to be. It is a self-fulfilling prophesy. We need someone with fire in the belly not a laptop in the hand.

At the end of the day no matter who we want as the new manager that decision will be made by Mr Fenty....sorry ....the board.

We're in safe hands

What would be really funny is if anyone, or even lots of people, suggested Nigel Farage...


Surely the aim must be for someone to take us into Europe. We've already had loads of failures who have kept us out

Just a gentle reminder that it’s not 1972.

Worth at least  considering successful NL managers.

Steve Watson has certainly turned York around.  They are unbeaten in the league this season.  They also beat Stockport in the FAC, who are a division higher.

The manager of Maldon and Tiptree:  they are top of the league, and unbeaten in the league and 2 cup competitions.

It looks pretty obvious to me Robbie Stockdale and we will have Jack Ross to thank for it. When Robbie was holding the reigns at Sunderland Jack Ross stepped in-no more Robbie. Assistant at Hibs. Jack Ross odds on to be manager-no more Robbie.  Fenty hears this-Robbie wants a job-no more Jolley

My God! It isn't? No wonder I can't find the Barratt Stand.
