Got confused about the number of games we'd played! Obviously doesn't mean anything, but thought it was worthwhile sharing even if only a handful of people found it interesting.

I would certainly call a managers brief of promotion , no ifs or buts, on the back of the previous managers " achievement " of a play-off final as a poisoned chalice. Coupled with a tendency before PH came here of changing managers almost annually I'm sure a lot of capable managers would have been reticent to take on the challenge.
I'm sure lots of managers would love the opportunity to manage our club but how many of those would be capable of getting us promoted? As far as the points you have raised about the increased fan base, the squad of players and the increase in budget by 10%, this has mostly materialised because of the relative success of last season in getting to the final which was done with PH as manager. If we had not got to the final do you honestly believe that the increased season ticket sales, the Operation Promotion and the retention of key players with new quality signings would have happened?


If we had got rid of Woods sooner rather than later we might not even be having the discussions of how to get out of here.

The single most significant contributory factor in our current plight. Had we gone for Slade instead, who was available and wanted the job, we would never have heard of Boreham Wood, Forest Green and the other joke clubs that we now have to try and compete with.
