A positive note for the board.

Post by Frogger »

While you still are paying wages to this pile of crap, at least you will keep some cash back in bonuses.

No clean sheets
No goals (unlikely) but pretty much a shoe in.
No win bonus

Must be a few quid back in the pocket for Nige and chums.

We started this season far weaker than in our promotion year. What did they expect would happen.

The other positive is hopefully with relegation half the squad are cleared out. Hopefully the board had some sense in putting relegation release clauses or drastic wage reductions in place for this shower of sh*t.

The good thing is that the match only last 90 mins so the embarrassing performances do stop eventually.

Really had this down to a 5 or 6-0 game, so well done team you did better than expected.

I think I have seen quite a few positives from today’s game.
Please feel free to add in this thread if I have missed any.

We would definitely lose players like Galbraith and Agyei . We would probably lose Richie as well because this club can't match his ambition. He deserves better than us .

Exactly because even in League Two you need to score goals

Richie will be long gone before we are actually relegated. I think he has been done properly dirty by the club. Goodness knows what they promised him to convince him to sign an extension and they then go and provide him with a load of duff freebies and loanees.

If this rut continues eventually he’ll get booted (if he doesn’t walk first) but as I’ve said previously, the problem he have isn’t that we have a sh*t manager. We have a load of really sh*t players.

This team won't be here, we'll need a full 10+ players signed in summer once you take the 6 loanees and out of contract players onto account. Who has faith in the DoF to manage that? Certainly not me
