I've given up bothering. Every week you think, surely we are going to get a point or two today and build up your hopes. The hoped for result never materialises. Another Saturday night in the doldrums.
This season has been worse because the excellent start was a false dawn, meaning the disappointment level from the last ten games has gone into freefall. In the end, what's the point? This is especially so if you go a long way back with this club and remember the good times. As someone said, the mighty Boreham Wood are coming to give us a lesson and who would have thought that twenty years ago? Even my grandson asks 'how many did Town lose by today'- it's the norm now.

It’s sad mate isn’t it but ONE day we will rise from the ashes, that’s what keeps me going anyway. The fans do not deserve this |

Ian Holloway won 11 out of 33 league matches as Town manager and achieved 40 points. That is a win percentage of 33.3% and 1.21 points per game. The 10 league games before IH was appointed yielded 8 points.
Paul Hurst has won 15 out of his 44 league matches since returning and achieved 55 points. That is a win percentage of 34.1% and 1.25 points per game. The 10 league games prior to PH returning yielded 8 points also.
Discuss…
Last season Holloway with one preason friendly and a load of young players was in charge for 19 games, won 5, drawn 8, points 19, points per game 1. Hurst had most of Holloway's squad, added another 11 or 12 was in charge for 24 games, won 5, drawn 8, points 23, points per game 0.96. Discuss.... |

How much longer are some posters on here going to defend this charlatan of a manager and start attributing our recent catastrophic form to him ?
First it was Holloway's fault, blah blah blah
Then it was Fenty's fault, blah blah blah
Then it was injuries and sending's off, blah blah blah
Today's excuse will be Covid, blah blah blah
You would think that we are the only team affected by these excuse's, WE ARE NOT ! Other teams seem to get by with injuries and suspensions and maintain reasonable form.
Lets not forget he managed to get a team relegated who were not even in the relegation places when he arrived and more recently has even managed to turn what looked a good side into the dog and duck !
How long before something sticks and this man's managerial inadequacies are exposed ?
On the plus side, if we stick with him we are now officially only five and a half years away from promotion !!!!!!!
You not totally wrong but you know my problem with you Sir Matt is you were no where to be seen on here during our unbeaten run. Get into a losing streak and here you are back here again. Think you used the expression during that unbeaten run "I'm converted". Well that conversion didn't last long did it? |

I think we'd have stayed up if Holloway stayed. The start of the season was a excrement show, but I blame the EFL for that. We clearly scrimped because we had no idea what money we were getting and played it safe. By January we knew what money we had and Holloway would have signed better than the shite that Hurst did. |

I agree with you 100% we wouldn't have gone down under Holloway |

What does it matter who does or doesn't support the manager? It's totally irrelevant. |

Please give it a rest, Hurst turning out to be a poor choice does not wash over the mess that Holloway made, one preseason game ffs. Let's not rewrite history with what we might have done if Holloway hadn't actually run away.
