    Who's voting with their feet?
    Or will there be some hope with new signings?
    Or is there just no hope?

    Quite sad to admit that I won’t be there if Bowyer is still in charge.

    Staying away is not the answer, means not a jot to the club, voice your opinions and hope the board are in attendance

    Tough call. I will more than likely not turn up if he's still there but that would mean I can't voice my displeasure directly at him while at the game.

    Don’t know tbh. I want to go to support the players, but I cannot support the manager, and this continuing silence from Rhodes and Rupp. Time for fans to show the board what we think.

    Of course it makes a difference. The biggest fear the club has, and therefore the greatest leverage we have as fans, is ST sales. If fans want change at the club, staying away from games sends a powerful message.

    Going to see the new signings. See if there is any hope left for this season.

    You've turned up all season and shown your support to Rhodes and Rupp so why stop now.

    Hope I'm wrong but feel he'll at least be here until end of season, regardless of results.

    Saturday is the only home game I will miss this season. I am off to London to attend a memorial get together for a former colleague. I am glad to go for several reasons but I never thought not seeing City would be one of them.

    Not this season it doesn’t, money already in the coffers, next year then obviously I agree.

    You go hide away until all Is well I’ll remonstrate for the 2 of us

    You see, I was talking to my lad on the way back from Oldham yesterday and whilst, their was angst against GB, it felt somewhat half hearted. A few chants, then silence. Much of the second half, not a whole lot of anti Bowyer songs.

    Turn back the clock to Cheltenham and not a murmer. It's a weird old situation but this pitch folk mentality ain't as united as some would believe.

    Do they truly listen though? I mean the view of the travelling contingent cannot be any clearer after the last two away games.

    Surely staying away actually has more of an impact or possibly staying outside for say the first 5 minutes at least to get a point across.

    Well no, not for this year but that's not really the point. If the club were to see the intent of thousands of supporters to not renew given the current approach of the club and the way its being run, NOW is the time to start forcing that agenda.

    I honestly think the apathy element is down to fans realising that unless theres real change at the very top of the club, we're going nowhere.

    That's fair. But if true, this venture will have a fair few more ships to sail amongst rocky seas.

    I’ll be there, resigned to disappointment if Bowyer is by some miracle still in charge, renewed optimism if he ain’t!
