With the fixtures at the end of the season we would've got out of it if we picked a proper manager,Christ we might've stayed up with Sinnott

I think Lee would have just about kept us up this year and with players back next season would have kicked on which is a real shame. With a fit squad I reckon we'd have finished around 16th this season comfortably. As it is, the league is so poor that even the Altrincham Fringe team are still in with a small shout of staying up
your kidding yourself there

We only have 2 conference standard players at the club (now)

The bottom 6 or 7 clubs aren't really conference standard though and I agree it would be close. Big changes needed in the summer whichever league we're in

In what has been one of the worst leagues in living memory, we are in actual danger of coming bottom. We are only 6 points clear of bottom place, with Welling still left to beat us.

Not even Sinnott would have been stupid enough to leave Reeves and Ginelley out of a must win game

Not having the  budget to compete in the National league has to be a factor
not really do you think our budget has been that uncompetitive?

If so who's fault is that?

Bottom eight budget maybe bottom six, not really the boards fault ?

Surely we must have been in this mess before the board got the chance to appoint NT otherwise LS wouldn't have left ?

LS saw what was coming (of his own making) and jumped ship

He did bench Reeves.  Every game was a  must win from January

Disagree that Sinnott was inept. Obviously not good enough in the 2nd part of this season but he'd done a more than decent job up to then.

I think the players must also feature in the " blame game ", especially Lawrie, Crowther, O'Keefe and Sinnott. All of them useless, out of their depth but not their fault they have been picked to play. That is down to Sinnott and Tolson.

ABSOLUTE SHAMBLES >:( >:(

Oh, and please do not mention the long term injuries as an excuse for playing them.
