Here you go, Andy, why don't you see if you can get it going on social media?

 

From boycott to scarf parade in 24 hours.

Let's keep our shit together. There's a lot to put right here.

 

Well I think it's a good idea.

Might be a bit short notice, like, but fair play Andy on the idea.

 

I agree that any sort of boycott now would be ill advised. And I have no issue with supporters getting right behind Hughes. Of course we should. But I've maintained my position for some time that our fundamental issues here reside at the very highest levels of the club, and that no manager is set up for success here. So I'm far less interested in or distracted by Hughes appointment, I'm much more interested in how we're going to set him, and the club up for success. Talk is cheap, and previous talk has literally been cheap. Lets see whether we're finally going to walk the walk.

 

How old are you. 12.

Grow up.

 

Aww leave him alone, he is excited. Surely he is allowed after so much misery.

 

You hate positivity don’t you. Of course there are problems but why not just enjoy the moment

 

He's doing a great job tbf. 15th in League 2, 4 managers in 18 months.

 

If they've got Ukrainian flag on my seat i'd parade that instead of a scarf!

Some things are more important than football.

 

Jon mate lighten up. I suspect you want us to succeed as much as anybody but it’s not coming across that way. It’s ambitious but it might not work. If 16000 turn up and create an atmosphere that’s been sadly lacking, it’s something to build on. If it fails, then Sparks will probably be gone and Rupp will be stuck with half a football club and I’ll be spending more time with the wife. Not something she’s looking forward too. It’s been really bad for a long time, but today we had a good day, the first in 6 months. I cannot remember when I last felt good about going to a game. We have a long long way to go and have to make some major changes to get any near where we need to be but let’s be positive even if it’s only one step forward.

 

yeah, no problem with positivity at all, I hope it works out, but you are correct, there is still a lot to sort out. Likewise, fans not getting carried with a high profile managerial appointment, is fine as well. There’s quite a bit of pressure on the players this weekend, maybe he will get something extra out if them, that the previous boss and lets face it, whilst having great backing from the supporters as usual, hasn’t really materialised. Mansfield with their support will be up for it. Should be a good game.

 

Nice one @Andyone

 

Hey Fordy, lad, I did you a poster too.

Didn't want you to miss out - get it on social media, make it happen.

(Don't click it if you're at work...)

Yeah sorry. We’ve had a good day and some of us got a little excited. If only we could have Adams back eh?

 

100 % agree.

But after all the self-congratulations, self-adulation and outright hype coming out of the club ("one of the most momentous days in the club's history", etc), we might as well join in.

It's pretty clear to me that this is the club making what they consider a HUGE power play.

The only problem with HUGE power plays is that they absolutely have to pay off.

If it pays off, every single City fan will be happy, because the pay off is promotion and continued success.

If it doesn't pay off, the club have pretty much backed themselves into a corner, because I'm not sure how much bigger they can go than appointing Hughes to the astonishment and surprise of the entire footballing world.

I'm not saying 'we win' if the Hughes appointment fails, because of course we don't, but there will be no greater proof that Rupp & Sparks alone aren't fit to run this football club. People seem to think the whole world has tilted on it's axis because we signed a big name manager; but we're still sorely lacking at the club, but the club continue to pretend it isn't. We've no choice now but to let this play out, hoping that it works out, but if you're like me, assuming that it won't.

Either way, we're still supporters.

Might as well support.

 

Got an extra one from Mrs Keefly Bantam. You want it back?

 

I know a couple of faces who'd give you a decent deal

 

Of course I don't hate positivity. But I don't have much time for the fickle nature of football fans either Park.
