Gilliead puts in a shift every game.
When there is no outlet ball (a VERY frequent occurrence) – he keeps the possession like no other.
His passing is measured and far away the best we have. He can trap a ball; tackles back; heads pretty well. He is the best reader of a game in the squad by a country mile.
He cares.
Do we all believe that Eisa cares even a third as much?Under Hurst, we saw the pure quality he can bring to a side. Of all those OOC, he is the only one I am desperate to keep. He is consistently MOTM – maybe as much as 80% of the time.
A terrific player who does not deserve to be surrounded by incompetents.1 user thanked author for this post.
I still would not sack Cox pre-October but if he has to go – I shall be unable to oppose the decision.

If he’s going he needs to go now.
What we don’t want is another summer of recruitment courtesy of the Swanns and a manager who says “yes Peter”.
We want a committed and experienced coach who can bring the right players to the club.
If Cox stays until October when we’re in the bottom four again with unfit, underperforming, non-league hopefuls. Whoever comes in will have a job akin to the fifth labour of Hercules!

Hurst stood up to Swann and was fired soon after. That’s the way he likes it.

The taxi would have to be the size of a double decker bus to get rid of all the Cox in our club. Spelling not my strong point.

Current form from last 8 matches.
Played 8, Won 0, Drawn 2, Lost 6 Goals For 3 Goals Against 18 Goal Difference -15
Looking at Saturday’s match (Bradford) it really is the “Battle of the Shite ‘Uns“. Bradford’s form is slightly better than ours. I did previously state that we’d get a draw, however I am less certain now!
Those that we laughingly call football players have shown nothing but a complete lack of competence to do the most basic of football tasks. There is a lack of desire to fight for the cause, and to say that we are free fall is an understatement.
What disturbs me the most about all of this is that Cox is unable to turn things around, and even players that where trying hard previously are no longer putting in a shift. I did say previously that his public tongue lashing of the players could come back to haunt him, and I feel that, along with the contract withdrawals, has lead directly to the players ‘downing tools’.
I honestly cannot see us gaining another point this season, and if my prediction is correct, we will finish the season with 2 points from a possible 30, and 7 (seven) defeats in a row. If that is not sacking form then I do not know what is!!!
We are now left hoping that Southend drop points!!!

Just because someone says something Ferrite doesn’t mean it’s true.

We were told we were getting a new ground to play championship football in and were going to be a self sufficient well run club and have plenty of pies amongst other things, so it’s true just because you are told something it doesn’t mean anything till it happens.
