There are two posts on the forum casting views on GNE's performance and situation. One refers to the perceived need for change in playing management and that nothing may happen on that front on the evidence of last year's disaster due to
the Chairman and his board doing nothing. Well it is the same lot and here we are again rock bottom in a league lower than last year. The Manager seems unable to mould his players into a cohesive outfit able to compete. Is this GNE trying to play on the cheap? Feels like it to me.
This criticism excludes volunteers who have no say in the running of GNE.
I do hope GNE do something!

Have a good weekend

202 and a GNE 3-0 Liverpool

From the three games I've attended this season it absolutely clear that the team has no defined playing style, if they were losing but playing a style or system that the players need to adapt to then fine, but it just looks like a collection of individuals trying to make something happen without a clear plan.

288 2-0 gne how long can this rubbish go on

[dadandlad]

299 please. 2-2

Good Morning from a very miserable South Coast. No report of the view to the IOW today, you think I am going out in that you have another thing coming. This weekends predictions are:

GAZFITT 276 (2-0 GNE)

MRSGAZFITT 303 (0-0)

SOUTHERNSMITHY 300 (2-1 GNE)

Cheers

262 please lets have a 1-0 win come on you blues

[angie5726]

235 please 2-2 draw.
We are only 5 almost 6 games in and the negativity is unreal. It’s a long league and we need a bit of positivity and faith this season. Yes there is room for improvement BUT we have a new team , new manager & new coaches. These things take time. The board are liaising closely with the manager and definitely keeping a close eye on things. It will not happen overnight. Positive thoughts please 🙂

342. Glossop win 4-2

279 please and a 2-2 Draw.

Hi GlossopSouthend, just read your post, sorry but it sounds a little harsh on the board to me. From how I understand the set up they are all volunteers as well in that they don’t get paid either and presumably they want the club to do well as we do.

The club running on the cheap? I guess we don’t really know personally I would have thought they don’t have a lot to play around with, assuming they don’t have a financial backer the only income they have is gate & bar receipts and some sponsorship, obviously they need to keep a reasonable amount in the bank in terms of cash flow to pay the clubs overheads/repairs etc throughout the year then the remainder on playing staff. So assuming is the right proportion it is what it is.

It’s really early days for the management/coaching team, they need everyone to back them, look how long Man United (sorry city fans) gave Alex Ferguson and that seemed to work out ok.

Hope you don’t mind me putting my two penny worth in, as I eluded to before I’m sure everyone wants the same for GNE.

Really looking forward to the game this afternoon, will be brilliant if we get three points, if we don’t, so be it I will still turn up at Padiham on Tuesday night feeling exactly the same way I do now.

By the way what does this split line August 26th mean? If you’re below is that it for the season in terms of making predictions?…. It’s just that I’m new to this site so don’t fully understand it….., good fun tho
