Sorry Scott, but the answer is, yes they could. Second half game at 1.2 to be fair at the time we're on top and looking the most likely to score, Alan Devonshire makes one substitution, the right change at the right time, turned the possession in their favour, with in minutes it was 1.3 and good night Vienna. the idiot Hargreaves isn't capable of such a thing.

Times up Hargreaves. Step down before you lose any respect we have for you.

The squad is awful, we know that, I thought we'd lose tonight but I didn't think it would be as bad as it was. 5-1 to Braintree at home is inexcusable.

First half peace was at fault for both apart from that played ok.
Remember this is nearly the same team that went on the unbeaten run
So yes this team needs confidence and young + bowman performing

That's a relief. As long as he was only at fault for two goals!

As I said if we cannot sack them put Harrop in charge for Saturday - we have to do something, suggesting that Wellings run in is hard is out and out folly.

We're not going down this season, but we sure are next.

SOMETHING HAS TO CHANGE.

=D I meant the team played ok

Agreed, gardening leave is the option.

I'm all for Harrop when we played Morecambe (I Think) he made the team play good football and hot a draw

Actually that aint a bad idea! BUT..... next season he wont do it for free so there would still be another wage. I cant see CH resigning and losing a years money, just cant see it. Even if the pressure got really bad and I don't think it will because there wont be many at future games. Its why these rolling contracts are so bloody stupid, you cant actually sack someone because it costs too much.

Yes that was the game - his team selection was excellent. We looked solid,played well and should have won but for an undeserved late equaliser.

When Knill was sacked and Harrop was put in charge, I was there against Morecambe and he played a 4-4-2 diamond which was pretty strange. But it was a really dominant performance from us that we should have won 2/3-0 had it not been for Bodin missing 1 on 1s, then Morecambe scored a longshot at the end from Robbie Threlfall.

Remember that gave now actually and he was clapping with the chants
It can't be any worse than what we got now can it...?

People will (and have started) voting with their feet. It's all good saying we can't afford to sack Hargreaves, but two gates now of 1,200 and 1,100 will hurt us financially and I'm expecting people to stay away on Saturday too.

I'm pretty sure Hargreaves won't resign, but defeats to home defeats to Telford, Chester, and now 5-1 to Braintree, it's hard to defend why Hargreaves should stay.
