    How the hell can you lose more than half your games played and yet the board and the muppet career blithely on like everything is rosy in the big yellow garden <yikes> <doh>
    Bunch of cretins. How can they not see that all the good work McNally did is being destroyed in one fell swoop?

    Just read PD's player ratings from yesterday (can't be ar53d to copy and paste them) and whilst CJ got his goal, he spurned at least two other excellent chances!! <doh>

    I notice the (few remaining!) 'clappy happers' and true defenders of the faith are busy keeping low profile,
    waiting anxiously for the storm to blow over before raising their heads above the parapet?
    From where I sit, you could have a very long wait, chaps <ok> <laugh>

    Doesn't excuse Basil's reaction though!!

    Yep but we're playing them for a second time now, so even the bottom teams in the league now seem to have worked us out.

    I believe Mansfield and Morecombe are working on a strategy to nullify our singular, repetitive, formulaic, predictable formation - ready for when we play them two years from now.
    Top work and foresight, Smith and Jones <cheers>

    Not sure on which thread to post this, but PD certainly 'hits the nail on the head' with his comments -"Now too many in this squad feel they are better than the Championship. The reality is they are unwilling or unable to grasp the physical price required each and every gruelling week at this level to be a success. They struggle to combat the intensity, the energy, the youthful disrespect shown to former Premier League players. There is a tiredness, a hopelessness and a drift which brief spikes in results can no longer mask."

    IMO, AN should really 'bite the bullet' (I'd far rather he left though) and bring in some of the youngsters and a good start would be to keep JM instead of sending him back to Aberdeen and he could be alternated with Hoolahan behind the loan striker.

    Maybe the tipping point will come when the Binners are above us in the table ? Maybe someone will wake up then and see we are in a mess.

    Just read the whole column, and he certainly doesn't mince his words this week.
    Shame nobody at the club has the Ed to stand up and do likewise, though to be fair, our season is now irretrievable. Too far adrift and on current form more likely to flirt with the dotted line at the bottom of the table than the one at the top :emoticon-0106-cryin

    That's what happens when you decide not to speak to the local media.

    Archant and Co will be all over NCFC now.

    Season ticket prices frozen for next season. Not sure if I will be renewing mine though, will probably drop to Priority Membership and just choose which games to go to.

    I just can't understand how he is still in a job with us?

    It's not hate or dislike but surely the board can see that unless we go up or at least get into the playoffs we are in deep, deep trouble.

    Maybe this is a cunning plan to run the high earners deadwood contracts down whilst we are in the Championship so we don't have to pay them so much in terms of bonus or wages then go all out for promotion with our youth "dynasty" and the proper players we have?

    Who knows? From the outside looking in it looks madness. It isn't going to turn around as we are, you simply cannot lose to teams like Rotherham and expect to go up.

    What the hell is going on? It's totally bizarre.

    I would encourage people to stay away and not renew their season tickets for now at least. Maybe this would encourage the club to engage with the fans and actually tell us WTF is going on.

    Something just isn't adding up.
