    Poor analogy. He might affect the service, the price, the atmosphere, the furniture, the decor and even the clientelle etc, but put Raymond Blanc in a transport Cafe, with ingredients from a foodbank and he would still turn out exceptional food.

    Would the manager equivalent of Raymond Blanc come to City? :laughing:

    As regular contributors on here will be only too aware, I'm done until Adams has GONE.

    The longer he stays, the more likely it is I'll have completely got out of the habit and never return.

    I respect everyone's views on this site and will use it as my only connection with the club.

    To anyone who thinks I'm a "Johnny come lately" fan, I must have clocked up well over a thousand games. That gives an indication of how I view the state of affairs at the club and our PR disaster of a manager.

    I am not going as I have Covid. If I could go, I would be there. Regardless of what is happening off the pitch, or the manager, they are our team and are wearing our colours.

    We have seen this season, albeit on only a few occasions, that this team can perform well. I don't think any of them run on to the pitch intending to make mistakes or do badly. I think the players deserve support, even if the tactics are poor, especially if things are not going well. Otherwise, what are supporters for? All supporters everywhere would end up watching Liverpool or Manchester City and not much else if you only supported teams that won every week.

    By all means let Adams, the owner and Ryan Sparks know what you think, but don't take it out on the players. This might not be a popular view, but it's what I think.

    Your dad sitting out tonight IB? Fall certainly seems to have shook him up... He's a right fighter and always check in on him.

    For the record, my lad and I are there. As I've said before, football is our time together.

    I'm going, if only to vent my spleen at all and sundry after the inevitable happens.

    This is the worst state we’ve been in as a club in terms of ownership, management and playing personnel during my lifetime and I’ve completely lost the enjoyment factor of visiting VP.

    I want Rupp, Sparks and Adams gone.

    This is marginally a worse state of affairs than our previous League Two stint in my opinion. Because this time, we don't have a structure in place from top to bottom to turn it around.

    Reluctantly going. Looked more forward to a funeral. I’m sure I’ll regret it.

    Give it another year or two of Rupp and we won't be far off those times again.
