FAT SF 2nd leg Torquay United v Wrexham 3pm 28th Feb 15

I feel fairly ambivalent about the managerial situation. If the club decided to wield the axe again, or CH resigned, I'm not sure that I would be unduly upset. However, a part of me would be disappointed and sad that it hasn't worked because I do like Hargreaves and feel that, as an intelligent man, who had been coaching successfully, he had the attributes that good managers need.

Someone, stood near me yesterday, shouted that CH was the club's worst ever manager. Now anyone with half a braincell knows that there are plenty of other former managers who could lay claim to that (dis)honour, not least Hargreaves's predecessor. Our history is littered with crap managers: Bob John, Jack Edwards, Musgrove, Impey, Compton, May, Saunders, Cornforth, Kubik, Knill for a start.

However, say the club succumb to the wishes of some fans (and I don't think the anti-Hargreaves faction is anywhere as big as the anti-Knill one was a year or so ago, although it will probably gain, quite rapidly, new members if things don't improve quickly) but say the club sack Hargreaves - therefore paying him off and reducing the budget even further - who are we going to get? We are not a stable Football League club anymore; we are a struggling non-league club, just what sort of calibre of manager would we attract? A manager like Steve Burr has a job, at a club, probably as big as us and doing better.


Absolutely agree with your post. I dont sense anything like the anti Knill feeling from the crowd at present......not yet anyway Its highly unlikely we will lose ten out of our last thirteen and get relegated and also highly unlikely we will win ten and finish in the top five either. Everyone has just got to keep their discipline and see this season out.
