Gloucestershire's shitest have had probably one of the most strange weeks off the pitch that I can recall... Let's put all that to one side, and crack on with the football...
FGR travel to Shropshire today to play Shrewsbury Town.
New era for us, new gaffer and a slew of new signings (surely we will have to offload several players by Tuesday when the transfer window closes, or we will have a bloated unaffordable wage bill)... Nobody has any idea what our line up, formation, or style of play is now going to be. We'll have to wait and see.
Let's take a look at some numbers...
Shrewsbury are 9th in the league, and on a good run of form. They have won their last 3 games in a row, including a 4-0 and a 5-1.
FGR are 24th (bottom). Winless in 8 games, and have got only 1 point from those 8 matches.
Odds on offer... Salop 7/8 FGR 16/5 Draw 23/10
KO 3pm

I'm not entirely convinced Big Dunc is the right fella for us. I would have preferred someone with proven League 1 experience... But here we are, and I am more than happy to be proven wrong. If he can pull off a miracle escape from the relegation zone with 18 games remaining, he will earn club legend status after just that short time... If he can't, nobody will blame him, we are expected to go down. Not expecting new manager bounce and a win today, Dunc has only had one training session with the team yesterday. And with all the new signings, things could be messy until everything beds in. Anyway, let's all get behind the manager and players. Maybe we will upset the odds and get all 3 points today. Even a draw would be an improvement.

Today's FGR away attendance could be interesting... Everton fans saying they are coming to support us, and some Man Utd fans coming to see young Savage. His dad Robbie is coming to the match as well, which will attract fans wanting autographs and selfies with him.
For reference, last away game at Bolton Wanderers we took 109 supporters.

Even a draw would be an improvement. Bit of a strange choice, usually you would go for someone with relevant experience, especially at fighting League 1 relegation. On the positive side he strikes me as a great man manager and will install a physical desire not to concede which is the first step. It's whether you have enough at the other end of the pitch to get the goals to save you. With the contract length, I guess the owner is not too fussed if relegation does happen which seems slightly odd, although there is probably a big bonus built in for survival. The mentality so far today looks good, anyway.

Usual shitshow... Should have got a proven League 1 manager, not a big name chancer with no experience playing or managing in the EFL whatsoever... Get him out of my club already. I don't like him as a person.

I don't like him as a person. What, lead a play off chasing team for 94 minutes? Seems like a huge improvement from just a day of talking and maybe one training session.

Like I don't like Joey Barton. Think Dale must have had a stroke just before he thought this was a good idea. That's it... I don't care what happens with relegation or staying up. I'm not supporting FGR again, until he's gone... Celtic and Bohemian for me.

I don't like him as a person. Only because he played for Rangers! You’ve got to give him at least 8 matches surely?! The four year contract was a bit daft though.

He punched a 19 year old on crutches to the ground, then stuck the boot in him. Nasty wee thug.
