Took my flags down to RH today and Rhys was the one that showed us into the ground. He seemed a really decent bloke and was happy to talk.
- said that Akinola may be back for next Saturday but if not maybe the Tuesday
- Mecca and white very close
- Lennon needs a small op, has a blood flow issue to his foot of the leg that he broke and as a result his foot goes numb. Apparently a minor op that will keep him out for around 4 weeks
- HMRC will be paid off
- may look to bring in a few free agents but need to be the right people
- meeting on Nov 6, think Government to discuss a return for fans to stadium, clubs desperate to get a % back
- loves MM and all his team. Great guy and the most hardworking he has known at the club. Often still at the training ground until 10-11pm
- total belief that he is the right man for the job and he will get things right
- said there a good feel factor around the club again
- unlikely JD wil be able to play Tuesdays if he plays on the Saturday is the reason why this arsenal lad another CM was brought in

all in all Rhys Is a good guy who seems passionate about his job and the club and honestly feels we are going back in the right direction but need a few wins to get momentum

did he let you know what position in the league we are going to finish?
 
Bottom of the league again. Very little feel good factor on here at the moment.
Who fault is that?? We don’t see what goes on day to day only what goes on on a Saturday. Admittedly that’s key as football is about winning football matches but there is more to this situ than just Saturdays. You need to build a base to work from and I believe MM is doing his best to build that. Hopefully the results will
Come there after. It’s hard to see it at the moment but we must believe otherwise what’s the point ?
 
He did and he felt we would be ok and finish mid table. Let’s wait until the end before we judge and see what happens
Sorry not picking on you as it's not your prediction, but mid-table would mean approx 60 points. So 17 wins and 7 draws from our remaining 40 games. That's nearly 1.5 points per game.

I wonder if Ron thinks we are still in with a chance of promotion.

Yep it's not MM's fault at the moment, but if this carries on it becomes more of his problem. We are on probably our worst run of results in our league history, we are in our worst league position in our history. Let's hope we can somehow use some of the feel good factor of a new manager and get some wins.
 
The fact there is a feel good factor at the club when we’re bottom of the whole Fukin league is very worrying indeed. Real winners wouldn’t be feeling good about that only losers.

So should they feel anxious and stressed all the time? Because that's not going to win them any games either.

I think 'feel good factor' is just a generic media term thats used these days to mean basically the players heads haven't dropped. Something that is easily done and difficult to repair.

No but when you’re bottom and the football league and couldn’t buy a win there shouldn’t be a feel good factor.
