    We will never get anywhere until we change the manager and coaching staff, It is as plain and simple as that....Winning one and losing five will send us down....

    Wasn't it Jenkins who let the club go bust before stepping in? 10p in the £ I think the creditors got, many of which went bust. Bit late to start worrying about local people isn't it?

    You've had a good run and much of that was achieved by Jenkins. He was lauded as a saviour and doing it for the love of the club, even when challenged at the time. Now the truth is out. I said years ago that if he truly had the club at heart he'd have stepped in before you went bust. The fact he let them go bust suggested to me it was the love of his pocket not the love of the club that was to the fore. Bought you on the cheap.

    Unfortunately the chickens are coming home to roost. How many of you 'anti-Jenkins' warriors were his advocates 2-3-4 years ago? Rose tinted glasses.

    The biggest issue for you this season is the demise of Curtis in my mind. For all the mangers and players that have passed through the club in recent years he was the one constant. That's where the soul of the club disappeared, as much a problem for you as anything I'd suggest. If you can't get Curtis back in harness then someone like Britton needs to be allowed to take up the mantle. Didn't he make the rallying cry last year when you dug yourself out of the mire?

    Plenty of games left to go, but a change in fortunes is needed in the near future.

    With the court cases being chased by your former Directors, the off the field issues will become as significant as the on field issues.

    I can empathise as we've been there ourselves. Just be grateful you haven't had to play in red.

    if you're going to make statements about creditors please don't guess the amount.it just perpetuates the rumours , I believe your club still owes money to a catering company in Newport so lets not go down that route is it. What truth is out , he did and others great things for the Club but the lure of money is obviously greater than his love of the Club , he isn't the first nor the last ..Last point you're wrong, we have played in red on numerous occasions and quite successfully too <whistle>

    You're correct. Jenkins did great things for your club which shouldnt be forgotten.
    It's a shame things turned sour.
    On the last point I should have been more specific.
