    With the season passes money already spent the club need the walk up fans. And if we keep on playing boring football the gates will keep on dropping to a point were the kc will just have pass holders and will have to rely on away fans for extra cash.How far are we away from that happening if we have 15k pass holders the 300 away yesterday and a gate of under 18k plus the free tickets that the club hand out to kids clubs and schools. Not that far away it seems that could be reason the Allams need to change things round.

    Do you mean forget about the stadium expansion, because we'll never fill it at the moment, and spend money on the Academy and team building?
    Or do you want him to be like Hearts, an owner who sacks a manager after a few bad results? How many have they had since Romanov took over?

    We need consistency, but with a decent manager.

    He's had 25 home league games now, and he still can't get it right, how much more time does he need? Seriously.

    A deaf, dumb and blind person can see that talks about expanding the stadium are absolute codswallop!
    We are not getting 25,000 people let alone 35,000.
    What would fill the stadium?
    Answer: GOALS! GOALS GOALS! and more GOALS! - for US NOT THEM!
    And what do we need to score goals?
    Answer: STRIKERS! STRIKERS! STRIKERS, CREATIVE MIDFIELDERS and MORE CREATIVE MIDFIELDERS and STRIKERS!
    The BIG question, WILL THEY COME???
    Answer: NOT a HOPE in HELL!
    We are going to have to get lucky again - and that's not impossible but it won't happen overnight.
    I'll still be here regardless!

    totally agree, people say it is the beginning of the season but he has been here over a year now and the home form is pathetic, if it wasnt for the amazing away record last year he would of been out by now

    It's 13 out 27 we've failed to score in if you include Cup games against Wigan Athletic and Macclesfield Town.

    The KC will only be expanded when City return to the PL. No demand before then. It will only take 3 months to expand the KC anyway so i dont see what the issue is over this topic. It will be done when needed. For now 25,404 is more than enough.

    But not against Macclesfield - hence the change from 12 to 13?

    Saturdays gate will be closer to 16,000 then 17k which is disturbing. People are simply bored senseless of this predictable goalless ****e that's being served up.

    <ok>

    When whoever it was said yesterday about half of Pearson's home games ending with us not scoring, our situation seemed a whole lot worse. :undecided:

    I wouldn't mind if we came bottom if we actually managed to score 2/3/4 occasionally, but when we fail to score more than once every time we WIN, let alone draw or lose, it's extremely tedious and extremely boring.
