Sounds like Bracegirdle enjoyed himself at Field Mill this afternoon.

Incredibly we're now below where Steve Thompson was at this stage of the 2006/07 season on goal difference (they held MKD to a 2-2 in game 35) and only 4 points better off than both Thordarsson was in 2005/06 and Ian Richardson (taking over from Gary Mills) in 2004/05.

This is now Trust era levels of cr@p.

Those seasons were absolute crap, the football was crap, the attendances were crap, the managers were crap, the players were crap, everything was crap, I hated going to matches and well, we're back to this again.

Three away fixtures in a row to follow. That should be fun.
Maynard still hasn't come out for the post match interview.

Maynard : Disappointing, we can't be anymore in control, can't question the lads desire but we've got to be able to defend those moments. I don't feel we're equipped, everybody in L2 is putting balls into the box.

Says Jatta didn't come on because we weren't getting balls in to the box.

Think this shows SM,s level in the hierarchy

They must have seen something, though I am not sure what. That said changing managers after a short time has rarely if ever worked, many on here have said that when other teams do it, not for a second am I defending him though. Can not help but believe we would be in a different place if Jason Turner were still here, think some of the blame should be levelled at that area. We used to get updates with a clear picture of where we are and what we were doing then, not anymore.

They've split the role of Jason Turner. The CEO is more like a commercial director, he doesn't get involved in the football side but I can imagine he's screaming at the board knowing the attendances will be plummeting

I think there's a reason that most of the fans of his previous clubs despised Joe Palmer. All he's done since coming in has said how bad everything is here and how much he wants to change. I'm not liking the direction the club is going in under his, or Maynard's stewardship that's for sure.

Joe Palmer has no say on the football, he's not on the board, he's basically the commercial director
