The current situation reminds me very much of that time. Manager sacked, new manager comes in with a revolving door policy on player recruitment, performances don't improve. The only thing missing is that this time round the club isn't 24 hours from bankruptcy. Are we going to find a saviour this time, or will Harry turn out to be the hero and future club legend? Who knows, but currently very depressing times for us supporters. I have to agree with you daveu, these are depressing times for recent Stones supporters, but hardly comparable to the horrors of previous decades. BUT this is 2018/19, we are where we are now - locked into a new management team, players who are unfamiliar to us, playing turgid football, not scoring goals and losing matches. Surely it cannot get any worse as we stare into the abyss of relegation to the National South Still, we approach the season for miracles and as you say there really is time for Harry to change from villain to hero and club legend. Here's hoping that Christmas produces the much needed change in fortunes for Harry and the club. I thought Turgid was out injured?

They must be rubbing their hands with glee at the thought of playing us! However, and trying to be positive, maybe the next six games are more winnable that at first thought. Really WILL be a total pisser if we don't though!

Today’s Trophy game between Salford and Gateshead is off due to frozen pitch. Now being played Tuesday. Not so long for Gateshead to recover for Saturday. Gods starting to smile maybe? ??

Not a lot of time for us OAPs to secure our seats though!
And what would have happened if it had been one of those games that OB decides has to be all ticket?!

Will be a different team against Gateshead on Saturday with at least 3 changes
