Longy- Gunn got the bullet.....

Unbeaten during pre-season, 1 league match played and lost, 1 cup match won 4-0 away from home and then Bryan Gunn is sacked lol.
Tallk about a knee jerk reaction.

and a relegation. Didn't they get spanked by an already relegated team on the last day when they needed to win to stay up?

[Matt.NFFC.]

Surely this can't be right after just 2 games this season?

Give the man 10 games IMO

Standard sample to judge how the season will pan out!

Sigh just got back from Exeter, it is like we are trying to become a laughing stock at the moment.

It might surprise you that I actually think this is the right decision but supremely stupid timing. Gunn has never been non league management material nevermind running a club with 19000 season ticket holders, he is only experience before getting the job was managing his sons U10 team. He got given a go last season and showed neither motivational or tactical nous we were worse in the 2nd half of last season than the 1st half which was pretty hard to do.

He should have been thanked for having a go moved back to his ambassadorial role at the club in the summer. Instead we have this ridiculous situation where he has bought virtually a new side and is sacked after 2 games. The board have a lot to answer for, with how bad some of the recent managerial appointments have been and simply cannot afford to get wrong again. My preferred choice is Mark Robins an up and coming manager who has connections to the club, though to be honest I wouldn't be surprised to see Homer Simpson appointed at the moment.

/ rant.

lol @ football...  Paul Lambert takes Colchester to the top of the league after 2 games, thumping Norwich 7-1 in the process, 10 days he takes over there, crazy...

[TightEnd]

superb appointment though

buggered up my Colchester e/w bets though

[Longy]

Just got up, like the appointment while not exactly jumping round the living room. Least this time we went out and got our man, instead of employing the person who can talk the most bs at interview.

Onwards and upwards hopefully.
