Mate I just think that a man needs more than 8 league games before he is dismissed. And I say that as someone who now fully expects us to go down. I feel we may well have a rally in form but not to the point where it'll save us.

For once, Grendel, you are absolutely right. Sum up my own feelings perfectly.

Slade was hired to provide a new manager bounce! It didn't happen but that doesn't mean we get rid of him after 8 games and try again with someone else....the same thing will probably happen and we'll have gained nothing and lost a chunk of compo (OK, not very much probably). Micky Adams didn't...

Sounds like you want someone to go down to Ryton tomorrow with an Uzi and mow them all down!!

We shouldn't "accept it" until it's mathematically impossible for us to stay up. After that, then yes we need to look to the future and select the team accordingly.

2 points oyt of 8 games. 6 goals scored. I know Adams didn't win any of his first 8 but this Doesn't seem recoverable. Slade was a short term appointment but the only short term impact has been to make our situation worse. I have no idea where we go from here. As others have said, changing the...

Hang on...several weeks ago people were saying 'we're gone' . People were saying Fleetwood and Chesterfield were must wins. It's long past being must win at Wimbledon. It won't make much of a dent. It looks like we will need at least 46 points, maybe 48, to even have a chance. We are on a...

Oldham are the lowest scorers in the league, are we taking pity on them by scoring their goals for them????

As I said on the other thread, why not fill that gap with Jodi Jones?

Mwahaha - only got that on the second reading. You could add...."or a sister call Dyanne / Dyllis " (the latter is a Welsh!) The one who has just gone on loan to Nuneaton? I may well have missed it, but why would we play either ahead of Jodi Jones?

I remember a desperate Newcastle manager (OK, sorry, they're usually all desperate after a while) putting John Beresford up front simply because he happened to have scored three goals in the three games prior. Of course, he didn't do anything and was back at full back shortly afterwards - just...

Is George Thomas unfit? If not, do you not fancy him up front with Tudgay?

Will do - unfortunately none of the tours for the rest of the season (they seem to do one per month) coincide with CCFC home games :( However I will establish tomorrow if there is a bar available on Saturdays, a "brewery tap" on the site of the brewery itself. it'd be handy as it is en route...

As Garry Nelson says in Left Foot Forward, the glowering moorlands rising away from the ground like part of a vast, unconquerable kingdom. I am giving it a miss - off to Byatt's Brewery for the tour and a drink or two between 3-5pm tomorrow, a bit closer to home and a tad warmer!

Don't you think George Thomas would be better ......confidence after the goal on Tuesday? If Folivi is still sore from his injury he might be a better bet from the bench.

Oldham is known for the cold wind blowing in off Saddleworth Moor just beyond the ground. If you haven't been before, wraup up extra extra warm. The wind chill means you are colder than the thermometer temperature.

Is there a chance the game could be called off? It's going to be below freezing overnight in Oldham and not going to get above 2 degrees all day......

No, that was me.

Maybe the taxman caught up with him.

Sensible decision - even if he cannot play in the near future, his experience will hopefully give some confidence to the rest of the squad.
