    Of course the results dont matter and have little or no impact on the serious stuff yet to come.
    Wetherby (Roger), can i ask one simple question - do you think we have upgraded our defence in the recruitment we have done? (so far)

    And what do the happy clappers have to say about our first two pre season friendlies then? No more excuses - time for action and investment from the club/Rupp

    Kelly has always been rash unfortunately. I was hoping a season of experience may have helped him to push on a bit.

    There’s no way we get promoted with him playing 40odd games for me unfortunately but looks likely he ll be one of first names on team sheet

    I really can’t make a judgment on one game with two different defences but the one comment I would pass is that Doyley looked his age.

    You've also been around long enough to see that the squad is not as good as it was last season we haven't really invested.. Sarcevic and Wright probably didn't come cheap but are either the linch pins of promotion winning teams? At present it's going to be more frustration.

    Not excuses, just giving my view based on years of experience. Comments based on events which apply to lots of other Clubs not just us.

    Wow, from BCAFC that's asking a bit much.

    Got to admit it's a bit strange even for City
    On the one hand "Serious" talk of buying the ground and training facilities
    Yet trialing 2 guys from Fylde and Grimsby :unsure::unsure:

    It's a bit early to write us off.

    But I'm definitely a bit worried GA is on borrowed time. And if that's the case, I'm even more worried about our lack of a contingency plan. And Sparks being at the club will never not be worrying.

    Still though. It's possible we do okay.

    I guess I'm most worried that we have the wrong manager right now which will have a domino effect for the next guy.

    Changing the manager in October / November shouldn’t appease anyone this time.

    Where is this investment?

    Why are we now talking about changing GA? After these two friendly matches? Give over.
    Tbh, I don’t think we’d be able to find anybody to take the job. Utter madhouse. GA wasn’t first choice. Several turned us down. Why would anyone want to come to a club which has no obvious plan or pathway to success?

    If you mean me, I'm not, I just don't have any confidence in him and can see it going wrong.

    But it hasn't gone wrong yet, lol, I think we all know that.
