    Are they really keeping the signage like that..?  I'd be calling back the signwriters pronto if I was in charge. Two different fonts ?!?!?!
    We've been using that font since the prem days. Not like you to miss out on some detail a moan up 
    Fixed. Never change Golfie 😉.

    You know the Covered End sign is the same at the Valley? 
    Exactly and it’s “The Covered End” 😉

    It's the fine details like that that will get us to mid table in Division Three!  Get your CV to TS paulfox, it seems like there is a job frenzy going on down there.

    Correct decision, let the Manager get in the backroom staff and players
    All day long, the worst thing that could happen would be Garner not having his own people.

    Can we park all this pathetic and inconsequential talk about the sign’s font. It’s the fact that it is bowing that is the real cause for concern. BTW not that it is important at all, but people often get the meaning of font verses typeface wrong. You’re correct that the font is different but I reckon the typeface is the same and I wonder if you are confusing the two (on the assumption that everyone is less knowledgeable than me). Font is to do with size and boldness. Typeface is the style (eg Times New Roman and Helvetica).

    I’ve got a bit more to say about this sign actually perhaps we better have a seperate thread…

    Whilst it's no surprise, this is starting to look like putting all your eggs in one basket....... fingers crossed the manager works out!

    The big thing for me is letting the manager bring his own people in…..for too long, our managers have inherited from the previous manager. It nice to see a complete clear out.  If it goes wrong, so be it. I just hope TS gives it time to gel.

    We haven't spent a penny yet and the players that have potentially lost their places are MacKeeper, no one and no one.

    We might dip back to Swindon for 1 or 2, or to off load 1 or 2.

    This is the starter, it's very nice, but of course we won't remember that if the main course either never turns up or is inedible.  That's what happened last season.

    How ever there is enough, all be it, circumstantial evidence that this time the manager is in charge.  Let's let him succeed or fail on his own merits?

    Don't disagree at all, as long as the Owner allows the manger time to build, history tells us that's highly unlikely, so unless he hits the ground running and is a big success by January he's likely to be walking out the door shortly after, then what?

    That looks suspiciously like a Masonic hand shake to me……if so, it would explain everything. 🤝

    Looks like Brian Connelly - if we can get Gary Wilmott and Bella Emberg we might be able to put a little madhouse together

    If one of the mistakes of last summer was not letting Adkins appoint his own back room team, which we are told by some was a mistake, then this has to be a positive that Garner is getting his chosen right hand man.

    Time will tell if it’s the right team but it should at least be a united team, at least until we get beaten up and lose 2-0 at Accrington on the opening day of the season.

    Time isn't the issue, 3 of our last 4 promotions were on the back of players that's weren't there 10 months before.

    Let the Manager, umm manage?

    To be honest the last two weren't allowed to.  Statistically the wage bill and a half competent manager, allowed to do his job, should get us near the top six.

    First team ASSISTANT coach, if Garner is manager does that mean a first team coach is going to be appointed? Jason Euell’s title was first team coach.
