Add another 26 years mate and I agree about the lowest point.
We need somebody who wants to play attacking football and gets the players to go out onto the pitch without fear of defeat and lets them play.
We ain’t done yet!!!!!…. and like the mob down the road who blindly and lovingly followed Hollowbrain into the abyss we haven’t done that with Coxy even though he is one of us.
I would support any manager who gives it a go and we might as well go with a bang not a whimper.

Would be great to see Nige come back. I doubt he would even if some bookies had him as favourite earlier on.
If he did then Swanny would have to agree to quite a few conditions to oil the wheels.

Agree – I think this is the last throw of the dice from a desperate man who has backed himself into a corner.
This will go one of two ways; Swann will appoint from within, and not provide any new cash to strengthen the squad or, Swann will appoint an experienced manager, sort out the EFL loan, and then provide some £££’s to strengthen the squad in Jan.
If Swann opts for the first choice then we are nailed on certainties for relegation this season, likely followed by administration shortly after. If he opts for the second choice then it is likely that we will retain our league status, some of the missing fans will start to return, and we will start to amass debt again.
This is a right f*cking mess!!

On Sky Bet he is 5/1 fav. Hill is 6/1. Adkins is 8/1.
Please ye gods make it be Nigel!!

A lot has been said over the years about Keith Hill, well maybe now would be his time here, experienced in leagues one and two, worked most of his football life on a small budget and certainly turned out some very competetive sides over the years with very little to work with. If Swann for once in his life allowed the next manager to just bloody manage the way the manager wants, then Hill may just turn things round but Swann must provide help in January and sort this bloody EFL loan bullshit out. Not holding my breath, the lucrative redevelopment of the GP site could well still appeal more to our wonderful chairman then saving the club.

Out of the list of candidates, if it’s not Keith Hill then Swann has signed our death warrant.
Even then it’s a case of if he has enough time, and money in January.
I expect the cheapest option and the supporters getting the blame

Apparently, he has done his bit by sacking Cox – and the missing 1,000 fans MUST now return.

He’s only done half of the necessary, appointing the right successor will/might get the fans back.

Aye les that’s what it sounded like, knew it would be the fans fault, the guy just pisses me off big time he just doesn’t want to accept responsibility. On the question of 2000 gates, how did Accrington get promoted to league one on something similar, also they barely got 2500 when they were in the top three, we would be up around the 4,500 to 5000 if we were top three. Rubbish chairman just bloody rubbish as per normal.

I heard the same Les – quite astonishing – also referred to out of business not just out of the league. Also said he would put money in so the club would not get relegated – so clear messaging once again

Swann thinks that the 1000 less fans is all down to performances but despite the bad performances a lot of fans saying that it is due to the issue of Coolsilk taking the land into their ownership and the Chairman.
He just can’t understand it !6 users thanked author for this post.
Oh, I dont doubt he understands it.

I would like to see Tom Newey as the manager
Couldn’t think of anything more silly. Newey gives good analysis during commentary, post and pre match but has no experience in management.
Our league existence literally is dangling by a thread, we need somebody who’s managed before and who’s gotten teams out of the shit before.
This is our last chance now to hopefully saving the season and that starts with appointing the right manager for the job.
Keith Hill, Adkins and Paul Tisdale are the 3 I’d choose between.
Difficult to pick between Hill and Adkins. Hill has been in similar positions before and done the business where as Adkins will bring his positivity and undeniable enthusiasm which may breath life into the club so torn between those two.
Tisdale has a decent enough track record so he would be 3rd choice for me. Anybody else signs and Swann goes the cheap route, we may as well not bother for the rest of the season.

Our only chance is to bring in a good motivator/organiser and hope that we can squeeze enough points out of the current squad to keep us in touch by the transfer window. Then, Swanns’s going to have to splash the cash. Pay off the EFL loan and bring in some quality to enable us to pull clear in the second half of the season. Will it happen? Nah
