Yes, the impression was given that when 'Tommy' s Team' lost, it was because they had previously been coached to pass the ball too much.  Yet, when 'Tommy' s Team' won, it was because he had played with Matt Le Tissier.

Where is Aldershot's next point coming from?

Blaming your own shortcomings on what went on over four months ago would be embarrassing to most.
It is the equivalent of the current Norwich Manager taking a side swipe at the previous manager of Norwich for this week's defeat against Chelsea.

One thing for certain he got it right about Taylor.

Who got it right about Taylor?

Tommy has brought in 8 players since joining but are they really any better than what we had under IC.?

Does that prove that the Club has been under severe budget restraints since the end of last season? :dontknow:
So what have the savings through furlough, the £500,000 loan, FA Cup money and transfer deal income been used for?

Lee Johnson also got a 4 match touchline ban (and £3000 fine) for a recent red card when he was Sunderland Manager.

Or was it powers above not letting cully do his job ??? 
 Wasn’t no secret  about the interference , or was it he gave him the funds at the start but cully didn’t excel in some signings !!
Little bit of me thinks after the last few games of his reign  perhaps it was player power got him in the position to leave ..

The first line above may be relevant.

Last season with players furloughed so could not continue to develop the team.
The Owner picking his own ineffectual trialists to upset pre-season. The Owner directly signing players to speculate... Yet IC players have yielded a good return when sold on (has that money been reinvested in the side?)

Good luck Tommy!

Barrett.  Then Altintop and Charles are two more

3 of the Owner's speculative signings.
Possibly Barrett's current record indicates that he may not be in peak saleable condition inside the duration of his contract.
So far, the others have not showed at the required level. Yet, if the players are capable, they need a coach with the ability to develop them for the Owner to 'turn a profit'.

For balance we have to thank him for helping to deliver one of the best season we have had ( winning the NLN).  Then we have had this season.   It was such a shame he couldn’t keep pace with stuff off the field to match the on field exploits. Then again a lot of that was down to the people he employed.   Ultimately the buck stops with SC.

When the full financial picture is revealed will tell us how good a job he has done.

In conclusion I’m settling for splinters in my arris from sitting on the fence

"Down to the people he employed"?
  I trust you mean the ones that were announced in a fanfare and then never heard of again.  Rather than some of the more recent departures who put up with the Owner's hopeless interference far longer than most could have endured.       (And some of the remaining, longstanding, virtual 'volunteers' still working hard against the odds)

Genuine, heartfelt supporters are starting to appreciate who is responsible for the present situation. The person who personally signed a number of the present squad who are not up to the level and a certain overweight player who should have certainly 'shaped up' by now if seriously interested to revitalise his career.

Seemingly, with the buffer of a couple of holding companies, it appears as if it is The Owner t/a King's Lynn Town FC.         Maybe unlikely that suggestions in the Crouch Report would favour such a business structure.

It's never going to change they need to build stadium outside kings lynn. They could have best groundsman in UK nothing will be any different.

Be careful what you wish for.   A new stadium may be more 'outside' of King's Lynn than might be expected.

This may instruct the Owner that if you do not pay the ground care team appropriately, it will end up costing and embarrassing the Club.
Don't be confused by the poser in the picture, wandering around the pitch with a fork.

The new Manager has been reported as saying he will bring 'leadership, integrity and morality' to the club.

Let's hope that fits in well with the Owner's operating philosophy.
