It’s quite frankly pathetic to again see the usual bile against Slade on here. Get over it.

Here’s a stat. He’s the only manager who’s delivered us a top half Football League finish this millennium. It’s like reading Labour members slagging off Tony Blair on Twitter.



And he came close to getting us relegated into non-league football in his last spell here or have you so easily and conveniently forgotten that!

I can just see Blair getting his old job back and building a Shadow Cabinet with an average age of 83.

No he didn’t. When he was sacked we were 9 points clear of 23rd placed Chesterfield.

Slade’s second spell descended into farce, but there’s no need to fabricate that we were on the brink of relegation under him. We weren’t.

You should know by now that on the Fishy all past players and managers are either heroes or villains. There is no in between.

20+ games without a win and not looking like getting a win anytime soon, along with the teams below us starting to pick up points on us.

I think that constitutes the brink of relegation in my book. It certainly doesn’t make me think everything is going swimmingly

How many games without a win when he was sacked?

Ok, we had a 9 point cushion but under Slade's stewardship we were only heading in one direction and anyone who couldn't see that must have been very shortsighted.

Ok we may have stayed up had he not been sacked but we would have sailed very, very close to the wind.

We sailed close enough under Jolley but it would have been a lot closer had we stuck witrh Slade.

Slade was a villain before he left


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.
