If Taylor is failing with a top 8 budget I'm not sure the board can do a lot but hope he turns things around? Sacking him now will probably guarantee an end of season relegation fight.
The January transfer window is becoming a nightmare, as it seems every player just holds out for the best deal on transfer deadline day.

Have to question how many of these players are up to it. Plenty out there that can take the door asap None of them want to come here... According to my stats . We have 9 players contracted beyond this summer which is the smallest I can ever remember . And the powers sit back and just release more and more . Its a shambles!. |

It's a cock up from top to bottom. They sacked JB and replaced him with a person who now as a record on par with Barton. They released 5 players and signed 0. The reason they meddled was " the manager isn't competiting at top 6-8" suggesting this team is a top 8 budget. In steps Taylor who is quickly sending the club to a relegation dog fight. If the squad is so called top 8 budget then Taylor is clearly failing. If not then the board needs to start spending because based on our recent performances its only heading one way. I'm afraid the board is giving mixed messages !. I'm utterly terrified about these owners. Something doesn't sit right at all. Same. |

Getting p1ssed off with this now , Same issue week in week out. Can’t keep a clean sheet due to crap keeper , crap defence, zero creativity in midfield and strikers who couldn’t score in a brothel. Still no new players and it’s coming to the end of the window, same old bloody rovers , bet your bottom dollar we’ll be scraping the bottom of the barrel on deadline day with a couple of young loan signings or free agents. I Chuffing hate supporting this club at times , we truly are an utter embarrassment. We deserve so much better than this sh1te 😡😡😡

Conteh does seem just the type of DM we desperately need, unfortunately, Grimsby have probably realised that as well! |

Although I fear Brentford inserted a "must play if not injured" clause in his contract. As there's something odd about Mangan being overruled after he told Belshaw he was being recalled |

Very, very poor - Exeter equally as poor and get their first win in 4 months with the high winds causing them more problems than us. We have taken a sharp nosedive recently and it’s very worrying. No desire, no shape, no quality and no leadership on the pitch or from the sidelines.
Stick in traffic now wondering why we bother, knowing I’ll be here again Saturday.

The January transfer window is becoming a nightmare, as it seems every player just holds out for the best deal on transfer deadline day. Somethings got to give Topper !. Either Taylor is treated like Barton and we know what happened or the board invest heavily to avoid relegation. Its been pointed out by some " all the money is gone on Barton and Co " and the board is confident this is one of the best budgets in the division. If the board is that confident then it don't bode well for Taylor . |

22 lg games without a game for Collins
Zero spine to the team with no Ward, Taylor or Wilson, all very worrying. No need to mention a GK who can’t kick or catch..…

So a lot of fans wanted a Manager who talks posh and sensibly but give me Barton any time. We could still end up in a relegation fight with the dross we are dishing up. How many times did Connelly and Crama pass the ball straight to an opposition player. Even Luke Thomas is passing backwards more than forward Headless chickens come to mind and the quicker we start playing attacking football the better. Exeter were awful but we were worse. Havent seen many occasions this season where a goal been disallowed for somebody in an offside position but didnt touch the ball but in truth we didnt deserve a point.

The fact we are apparently trying to sign a player valued at £250K seems to suggest the owners are backing MT. |

I've had a nasty feeling for a while that I just can't shake off. With these owners and the lack of a proper structure and plan we're closer to sleepwalking back to D2 then we are to challenging for promotion.
I really thought next season could be where it starts showing but looks like the rot has well and truly set in already.
