    This team is in most talented, can’t track back and can’t put a foot in when needed. Light weight and a soft centre. Team full of misfits who all would look great in another team but not ours.

    Time to rebuild

    Last game should not be clapping this bunch of wasters, but a chant of your not fit to wear the shirt. They don’t deserve any respect. Complete let down to the fans.

    Seen Lincoln a few times & think they'll do well in L1. Nothing new at all, big physical players winning challenges with a couple of creative types feeding off, l watched them grind down Morecambe just after Xmas and was sure they'd go up. Like a machine, giving nothing to the oppo, we'll have to be like that.

    Imagine taking the piss out of yourselves and the club by having a relegation party. Grim reaper costumes? Edin masks? We are soft as shite. Embarrassing.

    I have renewed, so I guess maybe I am contradicting myself, but I haven't attended a number of games this season, haven't been at all since leaving the Blackpool game at half time it was that bad, and if the team don't show early doors that next season is going to be different I'll have no problem sacking it off.

    I don't plan on going to another game this season, possibly the last home game but that would be purely to show my respects to the victims of the fire tragedy, and maybe boo and hurl abuse at the final whistle at the shower of shite that have played for us this season.

    my enthusiasm for the club died a death under Rahic, I got to the stage that I really didn't care when we got beat, i'd just laugh at how crap we were. I haven't yet got that back fully. I hope next season's team gives us something to get excited about.

    Also, I feel I have to add that had Edin Rahic still been our chairman I would not have renewed.

    I'm just giving the 'new' regime the chance to rectify the mess he created. my patience isn't infinite, though.

    The Chicken/Wood and Akpan/O'Connor comparisons are really just different shades of shit. I'd disagree that Wood has been worse but I don't care enough about it to argue strongly. In Wood's defence, he's just a kid who's been thrown in at the deepest of deep ends. He deserves another year surrounded by proper grown ups to help him learn.

    As for not being the worst team in the EFL.... we're not far off. Macclesfield are 3rd bottom of L2 and they beat us. We have fewer points than the bottom team in League 2. In fact, right now if we played each of the bottom 6 in League 2, our record would probably be evenly split over wins, draws and defeats. I wouldn't back us to be able to go to Notts County and win. And I could see any of the bottom 6 coming to VP and bullying their win to a horrible 1-0 win.

    Glad this is all about the Coventry game!!!!

    Trains station right outside the gates very strange timetable for returning to Coventry though, use a bus.

    Should be glad this season is nearly over. Too much wasted opportunity with a very mismatched bunch of players. Some very good technical players, lightweight but not a team. Bristol perfect example played well should have won the game but came away with nothing.

    Anyway, see you at Coventry- keep the faith there’s always next season.

    It’s hard to watch at the moment, we play reasonable but too easy to score against. Going forward we don’t have that goal threat
    , not edge of seat with expectations. DoyleM has the ball near the box. Not convinced he’s even a striker!!!! Lot of re-building to do.

    But it was (is) the same club. Yes, some self-centred moron was damaging us, but it was still OUR club. To laugh at our demise is poor form, whatever way to want to look at it

    How is this anything to do with Bowyer? He can't work magic with a squad as useless as this, the players gave up before he came

    Is a telling clue that Hopkin resigned? Maybe he was that fed up with shower that he wasn't worth it and GB sees a vision just has to wait until the end of the season to implement it. To say we've had three terrible managers for me is unfair, MC should have never been appointed and was way out of his depth.... DH had 4 weeks of something then resigned and GB is facing the same challenges as DH but with a group that is probably less motivated than they were under DH because of our results etc.

    Not fair to blame the manager in this situation for me, Guardiola wouldn't get anything from this group Trevor.

    About levels??? What do you even mean by that? It's not hard to see that nobody could get a tune out of this team. If you can't see that you've clearly never played the game to understand.

    But of those two you’ve quoted, Walsall had 4 shots on target and scored 3 goals. Today Coventry one on target and it’s gone in. It’s an atrocious record from our defence.

    We miss chances but that’s a given in league one but we need to tighten up first at the back. The best sides are always built on a solid defence and keeper
