Get rid of the League Cup. Premier league clubs field weakened teams anyway.

I've always wondered what makes a good manager and to me there is no obvious answer. Easier to see what makes a bad one. John Lyall was a successful manager but was he a good one? His win rates are not high as he saw West Ham relegated and struggled with Ipswich after promotion. Interesting...

From a ball lumped down the pitch by Jones. But it's all about possession eh?

That was the first ever away match I attended.

Alan Crawford had a bloomin good chance to score against Everton, don't know why that still annoys now. :unsure:

My concern is that, apart from Aimson, he has the same defence that was here under Taylor and they were pretty solid. Surely as a former defender he can see his plan hasn't worked and could revert to what did. Is it lack of ability or bloodymindedness?

A slight progress. Garner didn't even have him on the bench.

Lee Martin scores in Ramsgate's win.

He did and said that he had amazing potential

Get them eating steaks, smoking tabs and drinking beers like they did back then. Also none of this warming up and down too. 🥩🍺 (no smoking emoji?) Seriously though a lot less career threatening injuries these days. Would Kyle Taylor have played again in the past?

Jay an unused Sub in Colchester's win

"Things haven't clicked for Jay" says Garner but clearly they haven't for the manager either. https://www.gazette-news.co.uk/news/23821641.colchester-united-attacker-matt-jay-currently-favour/ A player who was part of a promotion winning squad not even a sub in a squad at the bottom end of...

Ollie on top form while his mate MJ not even being picked as a sub. Complete contrast of fortunes.

I hope he finds a Coach that can help improve him, in the way that Sweeney has said that GC has encouraged him recently.

Seems so; with the Marines this time 🙈

Yeovil now three leagues below us and Swansea are only in the league above us and had a reported pre-tax loss of £13m last July. Wrexham only managing to get back into the league thanks to some Fancy Dans. Relegation is only life or death if you've already taken risks. Scunthorpe anyone? We are...

And it depends on the outgoings; How quickly they happen plus amounts offered.

Also ridiculous though that only one team go up. Are there any men's leagues where this is the case?
