Be in a better situation if he was here.

Please don't start this debate again. I'm so incredibly bored of it...

Nico, Owers, Harrop, Osborne.........i get all that.

What about the absolute shower of shit that we call the Torquay United playing staff then? Are they absolved? They are the only ones in a position to get points on the board and by and large they are all weak as piss. These aren't professional footballers. They are amateur, talentless pub knockabouts.

What with the players he signed. Nicholson signed a load of CRAP players and left us with a CRAP squad. Harrop made a CRAP job of sourcing a replacement. Owers and Kuhl have done a CRAP job as they havn't improved things and Osbourne is a CRAP owner who never goes near the place.

The playing squad consists of a load of CRAP players who are basically serial BOTTLERS.

Basically that's a hell of a lot of CRAP for one set fans to deal with.

You do have a fair point about the players. However rubbish we have been we could quite easily have achieved at least another 10 points the season had the players not been serial bottlers and showed some mental fortitude.

We just lose too easily and tonight is a prime illustration.

Precisely, he’s looking for work, get him back ffs! Admit it was wrong to let him go and crack on! Nicho would without doubt have turned the tide by now.

They won’t admit it but all those fans that wanted Nicho to go are doubting the decision.

My flash score alert went off at 9.40 and I presumed it had finished level only to look in horror to see that Sutton have scored via a penalty in injury time.

Its dismal stuff - it really is. Half the time I think we are looking for a way to lose football matches. And before someone tells me that Sutton are a good team they are probably on a par with every other team in this god forsaken shit hole of a league.

If its not bad enough losing we do so by conceding two at ridiculous times . You think you would be immune to it all but it never gets any easier. The only way to avoid the pain and frustration is to dig a big hole and bury yourself.

As Nina wisely said, "It's the hope that kills you".

......and brucie has summed it up perfectly. I hope the Halifax chairman asked Nicholson what he was doing playing the twenty stone kit man as part of pre-season preparation this summer!

It died the day Phillips handed over the keys to Osborne.

It's a shame our CEO didn't ask Owers how he intended to "set a team up"

A post sent in via the contact form:

Why are you in the National League ??? You were ALWAYS my favorite away game ?????? I am a Carlisle supporter but your supporters I found to be the friendliest of all the others !!!! It was like the old days when supporters could be mixed...you would argue friendly all the game and then shake hands at the end !! My ancestors originally came from St Just in Cornwall and I have lots of relatives in Penzance!! I used to go and stay there for a few days and then stop off at your ground for the match against Carlisle on the way home !!! Again your supporters are the best I have ever come across !! I am in a wheelchair now but would I still be able to get in your ground ?? Hopefully you will be back in the league,,,,,,,the sooner the better !!! SO I WISH YOU ALL THE VERY....VERY BEST !!!!

Nicho didn’t have a budget! He was the manager, the kit man, the mini bus driver, he organised things in the community, and kept us in the league of which we are about to get hoofed out of.
