Middle of the table will be quite an achievement. Only two games gone, I know, but if you can't see what's in front of you then you are blind.

The amateurism of the Board is all too transparent. As long as Croad (who is responsible for this coach and team but hides outside the board) and Turner (who looks lie he is happy to be the Giants bitch) fail to recognise they need some professional and skilled help then the club will continue to fester and stagnate. Realistically challenging for promotion will only come after this mob are relegated.

No it won't. We need a money man and getting a group of people to put a bit of money in is not the answer and we would be in a very similar position. It is going to take a lot of money for us to compete with the top teams, if there were anyone in the area with that sort of money and willing to put it in they would have already shown themselves. Blaming that performance on the board is clutching at straws.

I have to say - I was going into this season not too interested. The new board and band of volunteers are industrious but I feel a big disconnect as I’m not a regular. To echo other comments, they need some experience and a sound plan for the club that is more professionally communicated. And woe betide if you question the running and output of the club on social media.

I was waiting for performances and results to draw me in as I’m not sure about Grix - Marshall’s we’re big shoes to fill and it needed someone who knew what they were doing to improve performances. Sadly. It’s going to be a very long season and I’m none too fussed at the moment

Cheap option was taken am sure we had half decent coaches ready to take over but we took a player on with no real coaching experience. A retired coach or some you sl assistant would of been the better option

Brian Noble is out of work.........

Might just be the man to help out, lots of contacts even more experience.

I am sure he enjoyed his last spell at the Shay. I wonder if he would work for peanuts?

You might also wish to consider how many clubs he leaves in a better position than when he joined.....
