Never! NEVER accuse Grimsby Town Football Club of thinking long term!!


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I've no idea why he'd think he could land a better job elsewhere, his record is pretty poor, yes he helped us avoid relegation but everything else has been below average. I say this in utter disappointment that he didn't do better.

I'd be surprised is someone else in the league took a punt on him.

It's a good point OP, nevermind about upsetting Harry Clifton, if word had spread amongst the squad and especially the new signings who the club sold to with talk of anexciting vision and 'the project' then you can understand morale nosediving.

And Swansea beat me to it, Jolley needed to earn stripes with a bit of medium to long-term success to be in a position to tout his credentials to 'bigger', or at least higher positioned clubs.

I'm sure it's more akin to the reality of things than blaming Brexit... 🙄

As Swansea said if rumours are true and he's applied for other jobs at a higher level that would be incredibly naive of him for such a smart guy..

I'm still unsure myself as to whether I'm disappointed or not by his sacking yesterday but I was only having a conversation with someone the other day saying I think the pressure is starting to build on him which shows he's not pulled up any trees here.

So Jolley was looking at moving on.  It's hardly surprising, the fans are so negative .  Constantly whinging. Yeah, I agree , that his constantly changing the side was a bit odd as well as some tactical decisions.   However, the incessant negativity and complaining, doesn't help us improve.  Liverpool desperately want to win the league but it has taken Klopp 4 years to get them in a position despite their resources.  Football fans have short memories.  It wasn't that long ago that Jolley the hero saved us from going down after the Slade debacle. The whingers got there way just as they did when Hurst left.  He departed when we were in a play-off positions.
