Just goes to show you should never bother reading the Daily Mirror.


Or The Sun, or the Daily Racist, or The Express, or any tabloid bogroll. It's all excrement, and you end up dumber and less informed after you've consumed it.

I was sure we have been unbeaten under the caretakers!?


Agreed - Ben and Shaun have done well - having been thrown the poisoned chalice of the sacking of Paul and Chris
Stick with them I say.
Otherwise - we will definitely be non league again next season.
Demolishing structures usually means you have to start again

If we continue with the players, tactics like on Saturday we will be gone long before the season ends.

The problem we have is, whoever takes over as permanent manager has to work with these players.

If we cannot bring anyone in without shifting others out, we're going to be limited in how we manoeuvre come January. Also, we'll only be able to pick up those that aren't particularly important to their team. So bit part players in league 1 for example, but only if they can replace them squad wise. I don't see more than 2 players coming in based on what's said, so the new manager will have to work wonders with this squad until the summer, and then shape it more to how they would like it. Even then, we will have players still under contract, and they may not be able to make changes to the extent they need to unless some club is willing to take players off our hands.

Any changes we make will be evolutionary rather than revolutionary if we're doing this sustainably, and I don't think fans are going to be delighted with that.

Maybe? But sacking everyone just creates a negative atmosphere for everyone.
A new manager would want his / her new back room staff in.
The players we have would know they are likely to be weeded out on to the next club again.
The uncertainty of is it a new manager or is it not is enough to kill the season
This scenario being played out was totally unnecessary imo

It’s true that we are unbeaten in five games but two of those games were against NLN opposition and two were against the bottom two teams in the division. We won only one of those four games and the performance in these matches have been very patchy to say the least and defensive errors remain commonplace.

Huge task for whoever takes over. Our cushion over the bottom two is getting very thin now. The last two matches were a golden opportunity to distance ourselves from the drop zone but we were simply not good enough to take it.

Given our next few games we could easily find ourselves in the bottom two very soon.

Tidy manager will sort out these misfits. How many windows did it take Steve Evans to sort Stevenage out again???
