This post is way off the mark. The figures just dont add up. We need to survive at this level until we have the finances to turn it round. Getting rid of Gary would cripple this club financially.
Gary has many attributes that put him above the normal managers at this level. Not many have his qualifications as a coach, nor his ability to bring in quality players on such a small budget.
Why he has not been successful this season mistifies me, but I know the budget restrictions placed on him have not helped.
I applaud Mark Harris in not following previous Chairmen into falling into the easy decision of upping the players budget in a vain attempt to get promoted. These type of easy decisions can lead to the total loss of the football club (i.e. Chester City etc).
I would prefer to finish 8th in the league, rather than spend stupid money and get promoted only to find us being in the High Court entering administration next season, and going into oblivion.
We need to survive!
There is a light at the end of the tunnel, which is making the most of a move to a new ground. The sooner this happens the better. Until then, we need to stick together and stop all this back biting.
Believe in the Chairman to make the right decisions. I have known Mark since 1992 when he was the commentator on the official video of the Wembley weekend.
He is a straight talking person, and I trust him to make the right decisions. He also has so much vision of todays game in his role of Chairman of the Unibond League.
Put all this infighting to bed and get behind the Chairman, and more importantly the Chairmans’ decisions.
This thread is so damaging to any of our playing staff who we wish to retain for next season.
Please stop whinging and get behind what we have. Mark is most probably the most approachable Chairman in football. By all means speak to him on Saturday about your concerns, but please do not continue this negative thread, as don’t forget, our players also read the posts on our forum.
Our Chairman was over the moon to secure Gary as a Manager, and was so pleased to secure him on a 2 contract. We need to back Mark on his vision for the future, and that Witton will gain promotion next season.
Sorry to rant on so much, but I believe that so much negativity on this thread is so damaging to the club.
