I'm not suggesting it - I'm saying it, and the argument why is above. Experienced managers don't necessarily mean better managers. It almost certainly means they have failed at least once elsewhere and been sacked. In our position, it's the same as with players; we're not going to get good ones unl...

I'd rather have a coach from Cheltenham Junior League than Evans. Adams has burnt many bridges .All pie in the sky though as there is no vacancy. (Today)

The Trust elected Director should be conveying these questions to the Board.

I find it truly bizarre that JP said as much as he could say to let us fans know there are serious issues at our club and some short-sighted, or maybe blind, fans see that as him "throwing his toys out of his pram." Why couldn't he explain fully what he thought? That is the job of a journ...

The plan is let those in charge get on with it.

CEO 's are not the magic answer. Ask Manchester Utd. or the County Cricket Club. Just another line in the management chain. I find it strange that some on here advocate having a Chief Exexcutive but don't think we should have a Director of Football. I don't think we should have either. I am surprise...

Before any more doubt spreads about the new owner I did read on the FB forum that Mr Garlick had an operation so if he is recuperating maybe that is why he has not made any comments recently. This may not be true but I think we should accept that he and Mrs Garlick will act and speak when they feel ...

The second half on Saturday declined when the Manager changed shape and then followed that with some strange substitutions. He often does that. Players who have come on suddenly get moved ten minutes later. Any work done all week on the training ground must go out the window unless they have plan C,...

Just because we win football matches doesn't mean all this nonsense (behind the scenes) doesn't go away, its just gets overlooked, its still there. The frightening thing is the board seem to think nothing is wrong. Have they locked MG in a cupboard somewhere? Where is he? What the hell is going on ...

Its afternoon in Sussex .

The situation changed with the takeover and the effect of injuries. When the Manager talked about a winger he did not know Archer would be loaned back. Martin and Wilson and the three late signings came when the indication of a higher budget was given. Had we had money sooner I am not sure we would ...

We have an option on Kinsella so he's effectively under contract unless we decide not to take it up. I was also told Tustin had two years so there could be something there but I think him, King and Wilcox are almost certain to be offered new terms. I've said it for weeks but we need a new Director ...

Judging by the discomfort the Manager appears to be in with his back he will know from experience whats up with Cundy. I can recommend a good acupunturist.

The nature of the process did not seem to engage much with those not on social media or online. I don't believe it will truly reflect the fanbase. Already there has been some comments made that do not bode well.

Based on rumour: As manager it was Eisa (£900k) and Pell (£100k), maybe Billy Waters? (£55k). As DoF Archer (£400k). Not including the firesale at the start of last season. Eisa went for over a million and I thought Pell was closer to £150k, Waters went on a free to Northampton. Not what was report...

They're fans like you and me - they're as entitled to snipe as anyone else. Don't know why, but I had presumed they would be setting a slightly higher bar, if they were bothered enough to stand for election to it I agree Ihearye. I wonder how many of them attended forums and meekly kept silent. It ...

I think he had an appearance or two. Alec Carson and Gerald Horlick had sons in the Youth Team. Not sure if they got a first team game.

Whats come out ? Nothing substantiated as far as I can see,

if it doesn't work out there is always dileveroo :P He has gone from parks football to possibly League 1 in a couple of seasons. His career is advancing. Typical of some here to knock success .

Probably but he never went anywhere that led to us receiving one - I was being deliberately facetious in only using the names of players we've received sell-ons from. I was told some time ago that a sell-on fee was a red line for Paul Godfrey. That's not to say he gets his way every time of course,...

Please forgive us for having an opinion. If you could maybe just let us know what we can and can not say and we will all fall in line. I agree with you.. my opinion would be that he already has 1 foot out the door and from what i have seen (most games), definitely below par of last year. I’d go fur...

Most of his appearances were as a sub. Maybe he just needs time on the pitch.

He's also super quick to be fair.

Assume we've had him in on trial?

Hooraay. A number 9 who likes to be right in front of goal. He combined well with Stansfield.

That would be nice.

Could well be a Flynn signing however looking at his CV guess where he played the 20-21 season?!

That is good. Should make those that call for "due diligence" happy.
