yes, taking a team of journeymen and mostly unheard of but seasoned pros to 2 wembley appearances in 2 years was simply disgusting

So bad was Atkins football more than 75.000 people were put off from going to Wembley in 2 years.

Yeah but 70,000 of them had no idea what coloured shirt the team wore.

This, followed by the predictably myopic response from Evers.

The east stand tells you all you need to know about the club. Huge potential but fucked up at every conceivable opportunity, even Wilder was sick at the sight of it. We're bloody lucky we have Brady here who actually gives a shit.

No other manger will come here and see a future, get us promoted or in the play offs next season and it buys them a ticket to somewhere else.


Myopic  Grin ; shortsighted (yes) and/or lacking intellectual foresight along with you... ...probably Cool.
The trouble is that you and your ilk go into a frenzy if anybody challenges or God forbid disagree with you and your perceived aims. There are some on here who go to the trouble to present a lucid counter argument by asking admittedly awkward questions on fan ownership. GPC mostly attempts to answer these queries but you lot sail on without a thought and importantly suggest 4000 fans x £1000...as if? I would recommend that you await to see who is the next Manager and hear his plans for the future and how they involve KT and his team. Then you can plan how to proceed with like minded supporters. In other words use your intellectual powers

I don’t know for certain, however, my £1 would be going on Brady

If Jon Brady is to become the permanent manager, why don't they just announce it now? Does another week make any difference?

Why is our budget probably the lowest in the division


I keep hearing this trotted out but do you have any evidence?

All I’ve heard put forward is:

‘KC mentioned good housekeeping’
As there has virtually been zero match day income this season and no teams have gone bust it looks like most if not all teams have practiced ‘good housekeeping’ because of COVID and reduced their budget.
‘KC said he missed out on a lot of key targets’
There is always going to be big competition for the most sort after players and most clubs will miss out on many main targets. Morton & Wharton were 2 key targets which we missed out on because of Appleton’s links with WBA and the other wanting to fight for his place at his parent club. We later found out Miller & Edmondson were another 2 key targets who we were able to sign at Christmas, both have been as poor as the rest of the squad and just prove this summers recruitment process was poor.
‘Look how bad the squad is’
This could be just poor recruitment. We will finish above Bristol Rovers and Swindon so do people feel these these two teams also have lower budgets than the more logical options of Accrington, Crewe Rochdale & Wimbledon?

Happy to be proven wrong but Brady isn’t the right man for me. Tactically he’s shown ineptitude on numerous occasions and whilst he’s managed to get a bit more out of the squad, I don’t think he has the managerial skills to take us forward. It’s still been relegation form throughout the 19 games he’s been in charge. I hope I’m wrong but I can see a Dean Austin type situation happening all over again.

Sweet Jesus, Brady has actually come out and said the squad was worse than last year and won’t take the job unless the budget is competitive, please at least try and read what’s out there before posting!

 Huh? I have never subscribed, support or suggested fan ownership so it appears my assessment was correct. I'm generally supportive of KT if you actually read my comments rather than brushing all those who correctly disagree with you into one convenient heap.

Fan representation on the board, yes, for a club at our level some form of crowdfunding or financing of specific projects, yes.

It appears in this case your "frenzy" somewhat clouded your judgement. Whats the word again? Myopic.

We are all well aware the squad is worse than last year and will finish 3rd or 4th bottom above Swindon and Bristol Rovers. Does that prove our budget is ‘probably the lowest in the division’ No.
I’ll pose the same question as my last post does that also prove Swindon and Bristol Rovers have lower budgets than Accrington, Crewe etc.? with such a uncompetitive budget also how did we finish above the two teams we did?
The recruitment was a shambles. Not signing a big centre forward to replace the starter, signing a host of wide attackers but end up playing them wing back, signing centre backs who seemingly can’t play in a back 5. These are fundamental errors and not down to budget.
As far as reading what’s out there haven’t we just sacked our chief scout? I guess the good thing is if JB does sign we won’t need to have this argument as it will mean our budget is competitive right?.

I suppose the view in Florida is that by saving on a decent manager we can spend it on a beach hut in Moulton instead.

I see a couple of things in Brady’s words. The first part about the squad, I believe he has to say, although I wouldn't disagree with him. He’d be mad to say he had a good squad, but personally  fcuked it up.

The second part about a competitive budget, leans me towards thinking he's our manager next year and knows the budget already. Whether it competitive or not who knows. But every manager I know who either wants the job, or has the job, states that they are ok with what their boss has given them. Well... They say that until it goes wrong.
