But we got the two kids who’ve scored a couple of goals in an U12 game once and a striker I’ve got a better scoring record than!!!???
You're right but what sticks in the throat is that Paul Hornby told us we have a list we've had scouts involved in the process and I felt excited look what we ended up with, you can't sugar coat this Cooper and the board are totally responsible if we go down!

Phil brown said it was like a breath of fresh air when he took the reigns for the last few games, for me it’s currently a breath of dog sh*t, gonna be devastating if we go down :/

He won’t be bothered he got a nice deal, underlining again what a shambles the player recruitment has been.

We got the best we could that were willing to come. Who and what did you expect us to get ??
Please tell us the names then ? and by the way if Holloway is what they picked then no wonder we're in trouble!

I’d have rather Jones came on for Holloway and went up front than for Gotts, baffling

Should never have re signed him but suspect the board thought that will be popular; stockport were rubbing their hands with glee when we took them off them.

I'm actually quite relaxed now because I think we are going down .. I'm 90 percent certain.. we can't score goals

Same here, sad but relaxed.
Hope has been all but extinguished.

Go down, release most of them surely? Might actually see us win a few games in national league. This EFL stint has been woeful

Harris Wakeling and Holloway. Like I said they were the best we could get that were willing to come. Who did you want and expect us to get ??

We've messed up multiple, critical decisions over the last two seasons which have put us in this position.
