Point is I think his job is safe and he can serve up any sort of shite while matches are behind closed doors and will probably still be so when limited attendances are allowed.

However once the gates are fully open again unless things have changed on the pitch attendances are going to show something is badly wrong and questions must surely be asked, if anything can truthfully be blamed on Covid (not just why the team is crap) its finances and the need to improve those will depend on attractive winning football getting folk in BP

Holloway has to much on he's on the board has to attend all board meetings, my personal opinion is no football manager should be on the board, he's put money in so will need it paid back.

No assistant manager, just give Ben Davies or someone the coveted role.

Obviously signings not good enough Gibson Halesowen Town, Jackson Jr Folkestone can't get in the team, Sisay no where to be seen.

Holloway talks about bringing a scout for the South West area, but Spokes from Taunton, Jackson Jr Folkestone, Tilley was on loan at Yeovil, Windsor was on loan at Taunton in Jan 20, so I thought he has a scout down south

Quoted from KingstonMariner
And if he’s still reading..... stop using Covid as an excuse. It makes it look like you’re trying to pull the wool (in a particularly incompetent manner). It won’t wash. The Covid excuse that is. Not the wool. 😆


It is not covid per se, obviously, it is the manner in which we as a club have dealt with it. The covid clause in the contract is the main example, but as a club we did not seem to be alive to the fact that the season was going to start with or without covid, with or without fans and we got left well behind.

Some of that is Ollie's fault; he should have seen the drawbacks of the covid contracts and the slow start but when he says covid has hampered us, it has more than most because of the way the club is run at board level.

Why not take him an apple?


At the same time he can take his tongue out of Ollie's bottom.

Yep, pretty strange that, it appears that one of them is talking balderdash.

Quoted from crusty ole pie
Anyone with connections please pass this on

Dear Ian please see the poll on the fishy you have got the support of the vast majority of the fans, but please go back to basics I think you are trying to run before you can walk. Let’s go back to a traditional back
Four and two up front  and stick with it for the time being until your recruitment allows you to bring in players at ease with your ideas.
So this morning all this talk of walking give your head a shake pick your best team for Tuesday and provethe12% wrong. Remember even Alex Ferguson got things wrong and took a few heavy defeats.
Up the mighty mariners  


Mate, it isn't 'the vast majority of the fans', it's the vast majority of around 200 fans on the Fishy.  Anyway,. I'm still backing IH, I think he is the right man for the job.

It would be a vast majority for Donald Trump.

Ollie your a raving self publicist
Just walk away  take your 100quid and ye mate John with ye.


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.
