Around the Grounds

Troy Deeney, what a brutally frank interview. From here there is no way back it is either sink or swim for Deeney and the FGR players and the odds are on for sinking.

All depends on Dale. If he is still interested in it he will splash the cash this month. If not back to non-league. Not sure where this leaves the matchstick stadium
 
The problem with Forest Green is that they aren't very good at being a football club; some of their football decisions have been catastrophic.

I think before Dale they were ok - early 2000s they were a likeable club but I think they expanded up the leagues without really being able to cope with it both on and off the pitch

The “splashing the cash” is part of the problem at FGR and has resulted in a constant churn of managers and players which invariably results in an unstable team. FGR are not projecting an attractive prospect for any players to join their ranks at the moment.

They pay enough they will get lots of takers. They have always done it - they have signed loads of them it worked well enough in the short term for them to league one. I think it’s the management recruitment that’s the issue
 
You would expect that in League One these days that clubs would have suitable covers to protect against the recent temperatures.

Tactical so that the rearranged fixture would be post Jan and they'd have more signings, given it is a crucial match?

Cheltenham - Carlisle a very long journey to travel in mere hope! The article on our OS says covers are only good to -3 degrees

6pm update: City confident game will go ahead

Inclement conditions are always tricky for lower league football clubs, as fans rightly expect to be kept informed, and for clubs it is a real challenge with how much you say, when you say it, and how you protect yourselves against the unexpected.

Granted yes, however giving up this early over 24 hours before doesn't appear to show the same level of commitment at getting the game on as say we are for ours...
