Artell's preferred style is akin to Stockwood's self confessed "Grimsby Way" so Artell will have been like music to his ears when he started talking about all the fantastic things Crewe did.

I understand the need for a philosophy that passes through the academy and in to the first team. It doesn't happen with one appointment though, it takes years. As others have said, you hire football people for it and those people should understand the current level we operate at. As we sit 22nd in League Two, we have to ask ourselves what value are Twenty First Group and Gareth Jennings actually bringing to the table? Seriously, are the board being ill-advised by these people?


Yeah I’ve wondered about the Gareth Jennings thing too, looking at his background you’d imagine he was used for some kind of councel regarding the appointment of Artell.

I’m really surprised that there aren’t clear areas of responsibility. Ok, you recruit someone with the right ethos and track record but you surely either back them with the finance to recruit players to play their system or ask them to ensure safety first. We seem to have got caught between two stools.


There may be clear areas of responsibility, but it’s not working at the minute.

I thought GJ was brought in from a marketing point of view to increase our income streams but I guess we’ll never know what his skills have been used for.

No problem. I thought there was an interview available but it turned out to be meaningless waffle.

Clearly any advice the owners have paid for appears to be extremely poor value. (That is if they have in fact paid for any).

I don't blame them for looking to so called experts in the field to help them out but given how badly its gone wrong I would hope that they would be looking elsewhere in future.

Hopefully the owners didn’t entertain any of that GJ guff and the end of term business accounts will show that.

Yeah it’s a difficult one to gauge really nobody knows what influence GJ has had I would imagine his advice would be on the non football side. Like improving infrastructure, commercial or even marketing maybe a question for the fans forum.

Do any managers or owners want their teams to play boring negative football? Seriously?! It’s just a criticism or get out card used when teams aren’t very good with players who aren’t capable or who’s confidence is shattered and have to resort to aimless tactics.
I think this current squad fall into one or both of these categories .
