After the first two games of the season, if someone had said after the next 5 games, we would have 5 defeats, be third from bottom, I would not have believed it.
 Having had a good preseason, I thought the defence looked a bit lightweight. Needed a Daly or a Gunning. Felt the same about up front. McClure seemed to be up on his own, needs an Asante alongside him. Getting Mensah back will hopefully increase the attacking options. Dan King looks a top prospect.
 This is going towards Chris Todd form. Paul Groves bought Niall Clark in. Hope Paul can turn it round. Can't question his CV, just question his lower league knowledge.

Andrew Adebowale, Hannah, Hoskins, Kirkup, Mainwaring, Tucker, Wollen.
 Danny ANDREW, Jake ANDREWS.

based on what? a 22% win percentage as a manager is dreadful over 130 games.

So in the league his win rate is14.2%
LY it was obvious that he wasn't going to play an attractive style and only got a few wins as confidence was high and we still had some of Rowes ideas.

As a fully committed statto I call bollocks. It's P17-w7-d3-l7-f32-a34.

Not bad. Not great.

Perfectly acceptable if you're Tim Harris or Boris working miracles with a shoestring budget but with the budget PG has, it's an extremely poor record.

He’s got to go. Sadly I don’t think we can afford to get rid of him and his overpaid backroom staff. His interviews have always been disappointing, they tell us nothing and laci passion. The only thing going for him is that he “seems to be a nice guy”. I feel so sorry for the lads travelling away every week. In the past we’d come away with shock wins, now we come back with shock defeats.
