    They would laugh if we sacked a manager who has got us into a great position from a very low base

    They wouldn't.

    If we sacked Bowyer we would have a load of applicants.

    Our squad is decent.. our manager is wrong for the club.

    We were 8 points clear at the bottom of league one. It was close to being our worst ever team.it has been a good turnaround

    We could be bottom of the league heading for the conference and you think it's been a good turnaround.

    Interesting to see 'yes' is above 'no'.

    Even though this forum is a small section of the fanbase, you combine that with the chants about Bowyer's football and it's pretty clear we've got a very unpopular manager. He's so unpopular he doesn't even have to be doing particularly badly to have upset the fanbase.

    Carlisle was the end. There's no point denying it, unless we're going to start smashing in goals for fun just because Devitt and Donaldson have returned, Bowyer's toast. It's one of those 'matter of time' things.

    I was thinking this after the Colchester game, I would suggest that the percentage is only likely to grow now unless there is a dramatic turn around on the pitch.

    48 percent out versus 44 percent in, as of thurs 23rd Jan.

    The tide has turned and not because we are disloyal supporters, just fed up ones! Supporters deserve a feel good swashbuckling season, not the meandering indifferent one we've currently got. 20k season tickets is a pipe dream.

    I'm sure Juian and Stefan are writing out his redundancy cheque as we speak, oh just a minute he was taking training this morning.
    You know as well as me as long as he has Bradford City in a position to get promoted which he has, there will be no change of manager.

    So funny, you seem to have forgotten Rahic was the man at the helm when that happened, and he just dcouldnt accept the attention that Stuart got which he thought he deserved, completely different scenario.

    Plus the fact we have lost 1 in 11 Stuart lost 6 on the trot. Imagine what it would be like on here if Bowyer or any other manager did that.

    Aaaaaand you know as well as me, if there is significant numbers want him out and bucket loads refusing to renew season tickets he will get his marching orders. It’s perhaps a few weeks too early granted as we are still 5 points infront of tenth place! , autos look bleak , teams above us better than us, more points and games in hand. Northampton close to going above us too and looking good right now too and confident, something we are not.

    playoffs at best unfortunately.

    At the start of the present season most would have been delighted to take that after what we'd just been through under the mad German.
    No one can defend the recent performances but even give those dire games we are where we are very much in the shake up for promotion be that autos which is still viable or as you say through the play offs.

    Regardless, it still happened so it isn't impossible like you're assuming.

    to be honest it’s not just the crap footy it’s the way he is criminally wasting Doyle having recalled him. Edited my orig post as Northampton behind but level on points.

    You’re happy with him , fair enough fella.

    Is this the same Northampton who only as recently as Tuesday couldnt beat
    Leyton Orient. Yet when we only drew there, it was all doom and gloom

    No regardless at all, two very different scenarios, one under Rahic (loose cannon) who wanted Stuart out after our Wembley appearance and just waited for his first opportunity, and unfortunately for Stuart that poor run of results just before Christmas gave him the very excuse to sack him.

    Point out where I said it was impossible ?
