    Yes, but what about the losses, 5-1 @ Sutton. 5-4 @ Colchester, 4-1 at Home Mansfield, 4-2 @ Wimbledon. 3-1 @ Harrogate where they were taking the pi** out of us, 4-2 @ Tranmere and the 2-1 at home to Walsall. He wasnt that good was he...

    100% this. There’s been a lot of yap on here about Maynard’s prospects but the bottom line is that in Williams’ last two home games we had two of the best performances of the season and since he left we’ve had THE 3 worst performances. That could be the players being mardy, it could be the head coach isn’t getting his ideas across, either way it’s bad.

    I don’t think the owners will be as patient with failure as some seem to think. Very winnable game on Saturday, a repeat of the Sutton fiasco will mean they have to act imo.

    You said our form was nose diving and now you pick first game of the season !

    We are a newly promoted side did you expect us to not get a few hammerings this season.

    Reality is we were 6th and that is a pure fact under Maynard we’ll be top 6 if the table gets turned upside down.

    You can admire LW has much as you like. The bottom line is, we had been very lucky in quite few matches were we were hanging on.. The rot started with him, and has gathered pace because we didnt address the problems during the transfer window.. SM may, or not turn out to be any good, but he has certainly been left with a team that were heading in a downward trajectory.

    It’s about respect he came in and got us out the NL in the first effort you can talk about the squad he had all you like but he did it and that is all that matters he is a PROMOTION winning coach for us another fact for you.

    As for we were hanging on so what every team has to hang on at times you can’t win 4-0 every week.

    Depends what you call a rot I’d say after 50% of the season in a higher league being in a play off place is not a rot but you seem to think we should be like Madrid brushing everyone aside.

    The transfer window is another thing altogether that isn’t the remit of LW or SM.

    Absolutely ridiculous. So the feel good factor they’ve created by bringing in a great brand of football, on the whole very good recruitment, introduction of sound system, investing in the boxt fan park and already put in absolutely millions and a few months of indifferent results they need holding to account straight away? Crazy.

    Thank you for allowing us that, in my case I admire Luke Williams massively. He gave us a season I never dreamed would happen, we won loads of games, scored loads of goals, conceded very few, played great football, increased attendances and got promoted via a Wembley final.

    If you ignore all of that, he was pretty average.

    Whilst it's true to an extent - it's a priority list. If you assessed which were the priorities then the results on the pitch is top every time.

    Recently, I don't think anyone is playing at their full capacity or what they've shown to be capable of.

    If we basically fumble to the end of the season it won't be beneficial for us at all. The more we win and Langstaff and Jones are on form - the better our bargaining power in the summer if / when clubs come calling.

    We can still make the play-offs which I think gate receipts is 12.5% of all the semi-finals and 25% of the final. It's not unachievable but we need to see a huge upturn in form and attitude.

    But apart from the above, what has he ever done for us?

    But footballs just not that simple, even if you do everything right or to the best of your abilities football has so many uncontrollables. Are we saying they need to sack Maynard or they need scrutinising over recruitment or both? Well they can’t do anything about the recruitment now and none of us truly know how SMs going to be, they will know more than us with people on the ground at training and their decision either way will be a load more informed than ours.
