    Your credibility is in the toilet, so gloating at fans who have decided they have had enough does your resurrection no good. City played really well today, and tbh this wasn’t about the current team or manager this is about how this club is being run.

    You would think we had won the league rather than beat someone 15th in league 2

    Are you the muppet who said Sparks would be gone last Monday - not a time to gloat you numpty. Well done to the boys today but you really need to reign it in, embarrassing.

    He needs a nice new long contract. Maybe he’s been offered one I don’t know, but Sparks’ policy of waiting to the end of the season is idiotic imo. He’s the sort of player that gives fans hope when there’s little to get excited about.

    Take Pointon and Kavanagh out, and this is a bore draw. Graham did nothing but give in to the fans and let Pointon start. There's no chance Bobby would have played if the fans weren't on the managers' back. His tactics today were the same as normal, but luckily we had individual brilliance and helped that Tranmere were absolutely dog muck

    The team played well. It was an enjoyable game to watch. We played attacking football an the fans got behind it. But its come too late though for GA to recieve any plaudits. Hes left our best bright spark on the bench for half a season, persisted with playing with a back 3, even if it meant Oyegoke an Ridehalgh had to play CB, Fecked up countless games at home with shit tactics an shit substitutions and only now, once the season is done, has he decided to make changes

    This is why we need a football man (or whatever I'm supposed to label them as) making football based decisions

    Ok, times up. Like park I will leave my fellow bantams to it. It’s been great but until next time. Era 4 arises. Mark my words there was a plan on Monday between Rupp and Ryan that never materialised. Rumour was it was Rupp doing his usual p45. Instead it was reversed and thankfully for the club a United front on the way forward has been formed. Expect news soon of a helping hand from the golf course coming with a football brain and legend of our club. And the glue in all this. We will have a home that’s ours. Look forward to v4 and I told you so posts. Goodnight god bless and I will let the door hit my behind lol up the bantams.

    Give your head a shake we are no where near good enough far too inconsistent and the club does need major changes. Tranmere are where they are for a reason and so are we! I'm taking nothing away from a good performance and an entertaining match today but I'm nowhere near convinced to renew my season ticket.

    Unless Rupp is really going to invest then we'll stay exactly where we are. He either needs to do what he says he will or find a buyer that will.

    I'm being deadly serious. I've nothing against him at all and know that whenever he pulls on the shirt he never gives less than 100%. However, I said last year that it was time to say thank you and goodbye because I knew if he was offered another contract we would end up with him and Smallwood as the main 2 central midfielders again and that that would cause the same issues it did last season and so it has come to pass. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a fan of Smallwood either and think we need better than both going into next season.

    They play in completely different positions, so it isn't like for like. I think the point that was being made was had Alex Gilliead been fit the make up of the team may have been different. However I do agree that Bobby should be playing and gaining valuable experience.

    To me Pointon is everything we should be looking for in a player. He made such a difference and caused them all sorts of issues. Him and Kavanagh were a right handful. Just need to tie Bobby down and get someone next season who can take a good free kick as we are going to get loads around the box.

    Honestly think some on here would have wanted their team to loose today to go alongside that pathetic gathering of a few folk described as an official protest. Embarrassing

    the celebrations when Bobby scored. Awesome. Roll on Grimsby.

    Fans have been calling for Bobby to play rather than rot away on the bench. It's as if they have more of a clue than the manager.
