    :joy: Oh come on you know I am right about Rupp, Bowyer and Rhodes.

    Oh and when we play well I will say but as you know with Bowyer as manager with his negative approach to the game it's not often we do!

    park our last away win was 12 October, ‘stalled a bit’ is being very generous.

    We’re playing pretty dire stuff and can’t score for toffee, at some point you are going to have to face facts, like others have said, this doesn’t have any hallmarks of a promotion season.

    We had two wins over Christmas got a draw at Swindon and Colchester and a point against the odds against Cheltenham. So we had three abject performances at Crawley Mansfield and home to Scunthorpe. Three crap performances doesn’t make a season

    There’s quite a lot on here complaining about the release of Doyle and Vaughan, but Doyle in particular hasn’t scored for us this season, so keeping him is as bad as having Omari Patrick. There’s only been a couple of managers who’ve brought the best out of him, so Bowyer is not alone in failing.

    As for Vaughan, shows the character of the man who was happy to sign a 3 year deal only to change his mind 6 months later.

    The club need to look at its whole recruitment set up though. Not since Parky has any due diligence been done. Invest in this area or continue to repeat the same mistakes, time and time again.

    If our form is poor does that mean we're struggling for good form?

    I'd love Gnanduillet he always give us a hard time for a big lad he possess a lot of skill, cant recall Callum Guy although he was with us during the McCall era and played 17 games before a hamstring injury cut short his loan spell at City.

    Wow just wow.

    Even some of the happyclappers have turned its just a shame you lot are a bit late to the party, a bit like thoose running the club.

    Party time for me tomorrow. Even city won't have a present for me.

    Bowyer is still here and it's untenable. The club has no ambition, no identity, no direction. Headless chickens at the top. They DON'T WANT PROMOTION.

    Billy mainly missed when it counted most like in the final but overall he wasn't that bad.

    I think that Rupp has basically said the playing budget comes from the ST sales, which I guess was around 2.1 million, and then he merely covered what was left.

    So leading up to the transfer window and in need of some funds for transfers, City launch this CityForAll ST campaign. But that's fallen flat because no-one likes to watch us play even when we're winning. So we're skint and will probably beg around tomorrow for any frees, and then sign some free agents just like last year a la Billy Clarke and Connor Woods
