Stockwood Update

Quoted from quebec38

Of course. I can see the bigger picture though and am happy with where we are, which is about where we should be. I am grateful for all the decent, fit players that do belong to us and am certain we will continue to add to that as time passes.

If we exceed expectations then fantastic. If we meet them then great. I wont be concerned until we are dipping below the standard we expect and right now we’re not.

I'd say one home league win in nine is dipping well below the standard we expect.

I don't understand how anyone can red cross some of the comments above.

1.5 years.

1 promotion.
3rd round of the FA Cup.
Mid table in League 2.

The only negative is the lack of a proven striker. But they're not as easy as you think to come by. Not every team will have one. Let's just see what happens in January. I personally think if we regularly play Clifton, mcatee, kiernan and Khan we can always create chances with our pace and skill.

You could spin it the other way and say what an achievement without a recognised proven striker.

Think i may be right here  if not i am sure you will put me right ,, Did we not spend money we did not have ie ITV didital and that came back to bite us hard on the rear end .. I did not for one minute sugest that we spend what we dont have . Only that we have had some fortune and some should be invested in the team to keep us progressing on the pitch, Not like last time and penny pinch as we all know how that ended

Think Stockwood & Pettit, and Hurst, have all said the money’s there if needed but Hurst is always reluctant to bring anyone in unless they tick every box, have a great attitude & shít gold. Don’t think it’s a case of penny pinching, and you can’t say money isn’t being spent then complain about it being spent in the wrong areas in the next breath.

A mere 2 pages on the just back thread after a great win against a team a division above just confirms everything we already knew about Grimbarians anyway. We flipping love to moan and get way more enjoyment out of that than having a nice time. Whoever is in charge is always gonna have a rough ride

Do you think that might have something to do with the fact that most of us weren’t there?

Not really, no

This doesn’t apply and isn’t aimed at you but the majority of people who moan on here after any Town defeat have neither attended the game, watched the match online or viewed any football game without access to a gurney and several bags of Vicodin.

It’s a fair point. Because we’re a family group of four ST holders, away days are rare and I only comment on what I’ve seen.
