    One man and one man only responsible for that performance,stand up and take the blame Jimmy. Why not go 3 5 1 or 3 4 2 after the sending off instead or trying to not lose, we lost anyway. In my opinion your too negative and boring. We need to be brave and go for it for the rest of the season. The fans deserve no less

    That said, sacking JD when you’re second in the table is probably a little extreme, would be seen by most football pundits as a knee-jerk reaction, and would likely be out-of-character for the new board. We have to remember, Tamworth are on an incredible run of results and are top because they are winning every match they are playing.

    Aye, it would bring back memories of Swann and Alexander. ‘Doing a Scunny’ would become a byword for clubs in promotion slots who sack their manager.

    Most teams have a bad spell during the season. If we can get over ours and have a storming finish with a day out at Wembley, we’ll be in the dreamland of er… the NL before you can say ‘Tommy Orpington’.

    Didn’t we have that tag already when Alexander, Dawson/Daws and McCall were sacked in quick succession?

    You could be right, and it’s probably contributed to the freefall of the last few years. Talk of getting to the final and our own ‘Wembley’ might be optimistic, but getting rid of Dean at this stage would be even more folly. Who would want to take over a club that sacks its manager when second?
    Here’s the run in, with venues.

    He’s not going to get sacked when he’s got a contract till the end of the season, what happens next who knows.

    Interesting that AW Jr. has turned on him, a real end of days moment

    ‘Utter dross like most of the games in this league.’

    I watch quite a lot of Counties level games. Quality wise, it’s way lower obviously but you can still identity utter dross performances and excellent ones. That was an utter dross performance last night, whichever league level you’re at!

    What gets me what had he seen in the last 3 games without Whitehàll that he only deserved a place on the bench, Elliot has offered very little, in all honesty I thought Elliot had a good game last night got 2 shots away and an header and he put himself about more, but certainly Whitehall should have been on from the start with him.

    Danny Elliott traps the ball further than I can kick it !! When I heard the team line up on the way to the ground I feared the worst. UTWI

    It was certainly noted that they had been working on their long control

    Dean said it was too much of a risk starting him as Whitehall had only trained 1 time in the last 6 days due to his wife giving birth, yet he played an unfit Beeston on the right wing.

    I don’t think it made a blind bit of sense but that’s the decision he made.
