Yes he seems to be making the same error. Must have worked for Weymouth somehow....

His success at Weymouth was maybe down to loan signings from Bournemouth dropping down to a much lower level.

We used to look to see how Notts Forest, Leeds did. Now it's Kings Lynn! Oh dear

 

[southendkid]

I agree its bit early for fans wanting a manager change but he has got off to woeful start.... MM has also recruited 8 players during his time their, with 1 being scott wagstaff who decent player for national league side. I can see why some their fans have turned.

From looking at their forum it seems like he's signed some attacking players which have helped them going forwards but he's neglected to improve their awful defense, basically the opposite issue to what MM had with us!

To be fair to MM he didn't have any attacking players at sufc to play attacking football. Looking at their results since MM been their have been poor! Losing to bowers is embarrassing which has probably had effect on their 2 games after.

 

[Whispering Bob]

However, it means that if the likes of Barnet can get a result at Stockport etc,

Stockport subsequently sacked their manager today.

That was exactly my concern when he joined us that his success at Weymouth was mainly from loading the team with prem reservists and a Brandon Goodship hot streak

Ollie Palmer reported to be signing for Wrexham, if they didn't have enough top class strikers already.

£300k according to Twitter. Crazy money. Nothing will make me happier than to see them fail and remain in this league for another season.

Ollie Palmer reported to be signing for Wrexham, if they didn't have enough top class strikers already.

Signing confirmed and for a club record fee. Their previous was £210k, and Wimbledon are reporting £300k gas been paid.

I really hope they don’t get promoted.

 

[Mr Plow]

I'd rather they got promoted this season so if we are in with a chance of going up next season then that's one less moneybags team to worry about going for that one auto promotion spot.

 

[RedAdair]

300k is a lot of money for this level but, these days with the sponsorship deals and average crowds of over 8k we can afford it. Loving within our means. Nothing wrong with that.
Looking at another sellout tomorrow against Maidenhead.

for the record Palmer had an impressive debut the other night.

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

I think Wrexham will get promoted this year or next, after which they’ll off-load Palmer to Col Ewe to replace the struggling Akinde in a bid to get Col Ewe’s conference promotion hopes back on track.

From what I've seen of Wrexham the problem hasn't been upfront but midfield.

I hope you guys aren't going all in this season only to sack your manager if you don't go up as your pockets aren't that deep

Not the fact you’re owned by two Hollywood millionaires?

They had a £300k gas bill!!? I knew it was getting more expensive but still.

For now they are, the upfront fee isn't such a problem but the 5k wages and 3yr contract could be with a budget cap looming and promotion not looking likely
