    Do you really seriously believe this Park?

    We are in seventh place by the skin of our teeth with a poor goal difference, clubs behind having games in hand, and near the bottom of the current form league. We are creating tiny numbers of chances, missing most of them, and our previously watertight defence is now leaking like a sieve.
    If we carry on our form of the last two months we'll be well out of the playoff places and automatic promotion a complete no hope.
    Just how bad does our current form have to be before you can see that we're struggling?

    Is anybody anywhere near near Cedar Court?? *Allegedly* there is a player booked in for the night by the club.

    Can somebody ring reception and pretend to be Ryan Sparks and say he needs to speak to the sporty looking bloke on the Bradford City booking so we can try and guess who it is??

    I acknowledge that our form is poor but the fact remains to date we have never been out the top 7 I think the criticism and vitriol aimed at the manager and club officials is out of order and way over the top

    Cant quite believe that weve let the 2 best strikers in the league (ish) go whilst still in or around the play off spots. If Bowyer doesn't shit us Tiffany cufflinks tomorrow
    By a country mile... Anderson, Devine, Reeves, Akpan and Palmer arent fit to lace his boots!

    I think we have a block booking at Cedar Court for the last day of each transfer window, unfortunately, the room usually remains unoccupied

    Have you actually seen how we've played this season?! Do you go watch?! We're in a false position.... our game is dreadful and now we've weakened the squad massively. The difference between PPs playoff winning squad and this squad is worlds apart. Dont expect to be in the top 7 much longer. I'll love to be proved wrong but were a mid table outfit at best!

    What do you think @Dennis@Dennis?

    I'm amazed how any one thinks a team with 4 points out of 15 isn't struggling.

    Irrespective of what might happen tomorrow our PR today is straight out of someone's CSE project from 40 years ago. Absolutely mind-bogglingly incompetent.

    Criticism and vitriol are two completely different things. I don't go in for vitriol but I will criticise when I see things being done badly.
    I have a fairly high tolerance of dull, pragmatic football if it achieves results. But there has to be a coherent plan to do that. Parky could be dull at times, but he always had a strategy to get us out of our own half and he didn't pump long high balls onto the heads of short, fox in the box forwards. Sure, we've been without Donaldson for too long but I refuse to believe it's beyond the wit of a halfway decent manager to fashion a different attacking strategy in his absence.

    @Park bantam@Park bantam is entitled to his opinion just as you and everybody else are. His is different to most on here including my own but he's entitled to express it nontheless so long as he does without being offensive. It might however be better for everybody else if he were to articulate why he believes what he says. But I'm not holding my breath on that.

    Soon.... :

    "We're 9 points clear of relegation and people are acting like the sky is falling! Only last season we were relegated with an awful squad, rebuilding was going to take a while and we should be happy to have a club to support after what happened to Bury. Just get behind the lads on Saturday and see where we are then."

    I think I have answered fully why I think the criticism is over the top. Managers and owners get criticism when they fail. We are coming into the final part of the season in contention even if we have stalled a bit. If we were struggling at bottom of the table then it would be a different story although I don’t think personal attacks do any good in any circumstances

    Don't you look for balanced options though?

    Understand what you're saying but come on the form table says we are struggling and it amazes me how anyone can say others wise unless they know something we don't.

    Anyway..
