24 April 2012

Town's superb new official website has, like much of the club's other digital communications, improved markedly over the past few months. It would be remiss of your original/regular Diary, though, not to point out the headline "Chelsea 30/1 To Snatch A Win In Barca" of an item on the SNOS today. Why? Because the item is about Chelsea being 8/1 to snatch a win "In Barca".

The website, like the team, is a work in progress. Both have improved; both, it might be anticipated, will continue to do so if the staff put in place to improve them are left alone to get on with their jobs. What if Town only improve by one or two league places next season, though? The great run earlier this term had many a supporter concluding that if we missed out on the play-offs, then 2012-13 would be our year. But the Mariners have now won only three of their last 14 games. If a fourth season in the Conference looms a year from now, will there be pressure to resume the vicious circle of hiring and firing that did so much to bring our club to this stricken state?

In the least surprising news of 2012 so far, anyway, Michael Coulson is off. Who are next season's Fleetwood, by the way?
