Woking looked decent on Saturday but not amazing, will be surprised if they maintain it. Their fans will say the same about us granted.

All well and good until the £99 season ticket money runs out next month. Hill never got as much backing as this, was just expected to work wonders. Last season seems to have dampened a lot of people's appreciation of him despite the fact he actually kept us up, imagine if we'd gone down.

Our budget back in 14/15 when we had Dean Morgan and Rendell was arguably bigger than it is now. He also got to bring in Aswad Thomas and Odubade on loan later in the season. And he still complained we we weren't spending money we didn't have to try and reach the playoffs.

I really don't think it was. Morgan was on trial with us before we signed him. Rendell didn't even have a squad number at Luton before he came to us on loan. We weren't breaking the bank. I do agree that it was cheeky of GH to complain about not being able to strengthen. Didn't Lafayette also come in on loan? Albeit at the time when Rendell was injured.

This season we've been able to give three players two-year contracts - strangely the club only announced that Joe Ward was on a two-year deal when he signed. We've also added an extra day of training while seemingly doing double sessions on one of the other days, added to also having a new training ground closer to the club.

Forgot about Lafayette! Think we had Rendell, Lafayette, Marriott, Odubade and Sole at one point. What's the chances we would have actually won the playoffs anyway?

Disagree about Rendell though, he was a proven Conference level striker - Luton didn't need him because they had players like Andre Gray. I'd say he was on more than Joe Ward for example.

These Woking fans having a normal football discussion with minimal wumming is a bit weird.

Either way, we're spending more on the team now than we did under GH. At least it's working, for now.
