Got to say that there’s a lack of leadership there.

How about Hong Kong Fuey? However as he was a mild mannered janitor I don’t think he would be able to rouse this lot.

Still, give him a try and he can’t do worse than the last two.

Two Freds this season from me and two resounding awful defeats. I tried to invoke the positivity of Captain Flashheart, especially with hopefully, the vigour in which he treated his women would translate onto the pitch, ‘ I mean get inside her five times a day and take her to heaven and back’. The derring do that has been missing but alas we ended up with a team more in the mould of Captain Darling.

The baton, or poisoned chalice, is here to be passed on. Good luck to the brave man or woman that seizes it.

It is not same old same old year after year at the football club Graham. We won the National League in 2012-2013 and finished 8th in 2017-2018 and 4th in 2018-2019. Can someone tell him we've been decent since the arrival of Steve Evans in 2016-2017. We were only rubbish last year under John Dempster. He was brought in to sort that out.

Seems a shame to waste a chance asking how a sunday league player goes about his business when we can just go and ask Jordan bowery.

There is a positive from yesterday, we scored from a corner :roll:

I can't remember who took it but good on them, they put it into the danger area - Cooky did the rest.

simple fact is this guy's clutching at every straw he can now, he's desperate in every sense of the word. Dempster is a genius in comparison to the present incumbent, can't call him a manager.

Bishop as well, to they layman. He did deny it though and blame it on some non-league setup, but I’m sceptical.


Bishop also liking tweets poking fun at the Stech mistake and also saying Coughlan sounds like a broken man.

It’s only a like so it’s nothing major but I just find it strange of him considering he’s still employed by the club. Granted he’s part of adifferent set up and won’t really be involved with the first team but hardly a good look. Not sure Coughlan or Stech would be too pleased.

Suppose it’s an insight as to what staff are thinking within the club anyway.

One reason Dempster Failed... the players respected and liked Flitcroft and all wanted and believed they would succeed.. Ive been fortunate to be behind the scenes for a couple days at swindon when Gordon & Elšnik were on loan.. the vibe in the dressing room was unreal, every player, every staff member were all like best mates having a laugh and enjoying it. I cant imagine our current setup has anything close to that feeling. When he left I don't think anyone realised a bit of life at the club also left. Ultimately we didn't achieve anything and need to move forward and try and recreate that/ go one step better.

GC might pick up some wins etc and get us going eventually but its miles off what we need and I truly believe if he did improve this year, finish mid table then build next season and go one better again... we'd never survive in league one with him and it'd all be a waste of time. Id plan for the future now and get the right man in as soon as we can.

Speechless.

GC only has himself to blame as Aiden Stone played well at Newport County whereas Marek Stech has made big errors in 4 out of 5 games he has played.

I'm still puzzling over the second Bradford goal. How did we end up with three centre halfs within 5 yards of each other on the left hand side of the area? From watching it again, it seems it was caused by Farrend Rawson charging out of defence to pick up Clayton Donaldson. I think George Lapslie should also have checked his shoulder to pick up Conor Wood. Stech could also have saved it. Should Jordan Bowery or Nicky Maynard tracked back?


Bit of wishful thinking there mate ;)

oh here we go again, Dan knows it all because he's heard a rumour :lol:

I know a few players didn't like him, ive chatted with one or two about it including Anderson, I know DF confronted and made examples of them on the training ground. Ive met other players from other clubs who all hate him. But these are lads that were no where near it all. The majority did like him and to suggest he 'lost the dressing room' is nonsense , but I know it doesn't fit your narrative so you'll write an essay how your right and everyone else is wrong. If you ever want an honest assessment of the last couple seasons including that season, ask Mellis (who will also reveal what training was like under GC :? )

You can't stand it that someone on here actually knows proper stuff rather than things they make up in their head like you can you? Why do you think we plummeted like a stone eh? He'd lost the dressing room, fact. And you keep on trying to belittle me by saying I don't know stuff, well just have a look at the Mal Benning thread and see what I put on there.
