    But we've been playing the diamond, not 4 3 3?

    I'm happy with your suggestion but it still constitutes a system change.

    He should be on the bench for added firepower if required.

    Problem was, Gibson was so bad on the left wing, he was loaned out to a non league side.
    Simple solution is: buy a left winger.

    No, no, no. I've seen more mobility in Stephen Hawking.

    You would be far wiser to wait until after the transfer window and see who we have brought in to address the clear deficiencies in midfield.

    2 games have gone already and no wins.

    We can't afford now to wait much longer.

    The deficiencies were clear but Bowyer offers Anderson, Devine and Colville a new contract hmmm

    You need to lower your expectations then mate. I saw you play twice last year and clearly you havent improved! As for us most are not getting carried away. However we play as a team and yes we have limitations just like you have but I know which will finish higher based on Saturday. However I wish you the best as you (the fans) don't deserve to be in this league!

    Open your eyes!

    We're rubbish under Bowyer so far. He needs to improve.

    No panic - stating facts!

    Crikey Moses, there are 44 games left - are you suggesting we cannot afford to not win any more games?

    Unlike you jumping around like a fish out of water I will see how a team that GB has had some input into gets on. I also will wait until the transfer window closes to see who has been brought in and how that improves the team and results. Only then can a fair assessment be drawn.

    Last season doesn't count for anything now.

    You saw us play twice last year and again yesterday and you believe you will finish higher, not sure you have a grasp of just what damage our last chairman had on both our club fans and all staff at the club players down to administration.
    We have players still here from that regime who obviously didn't give a f**k for our club and most fans were hoping we could get shut of them but it looks like we will have to rebuild with these said players still around.
    Bowyer has added new faces and it will take time for them to gel but after our first two games he's not helping himself with team selections, most traveling City fans on seeing yesterdays team selection knew we would be hard pressed to get all three points with Bowyers selected players and formation.
    We fans are the first to tell it as it is and so far we have been pretty poor, yet still good enough to come to your place and get a point ;), thanks for your best wishes for the season I offer the same to you and your club but let's not start getting carried away on last season achievements and yesterdays game.

    And me too to be honest @Keefly Bantam@Keefly Bantam, I questioned one of the guys in the pub when he said same again, I thought he was buying the ale until he said no team selection was same starting 11 as last week.
    So I ordered a double Whiskey.

    I was discussing this after the game in MacDonalds and agree with your sentiments. The fact that we weren't any better than you as a team on Saturday shows just how far we have fallen. As it stands with our current squad we aren't going to walk this division, it reminds me of Sunderland last season. I'm just not sure how long i can bear to watch football like that at the weekend.

    What I am saying is that we have to start winning ASAP.

    Our performances haven't been good.

    3 games to improve in my mind.

    On a cheerful note I see the Harry Maguire steward video from the city fans yesterday has gone full viral! 1.5m views! Classic!

    Fans don’t like facts on here. What they do love is romantic stories in the T&A. Not bothered about wins or progression, just that the manager is nice and fluffy and uses the right rhetoric.
