Yeah coz we all pay money to watch that crap Last thing you want is to be entertained Leads was injured then regained fitness GC is a chancer and will prove exactly that Were you happy with what you were watching August until second week of December? Purely curious. The second half of the season was by far surperior to the first, that much is just fact. Unless of course you somehow find entertainment in losing football matches.

Performance wise we were entertaining to watch. Just couldn’t score. Now we’re playing sh** and very lucky to have signed jch.

A) Danny is not injured B) you can never question work ethic Dan like Lines simply wants to play football and put everything into it but GC prefers pragmatic boring unadventurous football Football should be entertaining not just about a manager squeezing out results in the hope of keeping a job as long as possible He says in the press that Danny is a”big player for us” but won’t give him a look in? He’s 2 faced and is disrespectful to lads that have served the club well for the last 4 years in Lines and Leadbitter Thanks for your service but both will be off and I don’t think this guy will see next season out Holloway should’ve got the job and we could’ve built for the future playing football not hoofing it and playing with fear Lol

Respect Of which there is none in football They say there is no sentiment in football But people have short memories of some of the efforts and performances Lines and Leadbitter put in for this club DC’s years were good enjoyable years and we move on but moving on with the wrong guy in charge in my opinion A footballing dinosaur Where's Leads been if he's not injured given he's only played in the last 2 DS games? Plus neither player hardly figured under DC anyway. TBH I'd sooner GC squeeze out results and we stay up then watch DC's "attractive" football take us down. Click on his profile and the only time he's ever posted, has been about Leadbitter. He was moaning in October that DC wouldn't play Leadbitter because he's too attacking. That DC is too defensive. GC did what he had to do. All along he's said it will be lack this, this season. I'm not going to judge the way we play, until next season. Not sure why he's suprised we played that way, in a relegation battle.

Not seen him since g.c took over. Why is this. His pace created space and movement, Granted his crosses were not great but he wasn’t selected as a winger, but covers the whole right wing with his energy and pace. .I thought he played in developing development squad match v Wimbledon last week?

The whole season has been depressing and poor I agree DC was defensive minded and also played with fear and hi team lacked identity in that he tailored his selection to the opposition Holloway has a good football brain and could’ve taken us to the next step Not arguing DC was playing attractive football though he would encourage it at times but GC is a step backwards we shopped at Aldi instead of Waitrose with that appointment He was a cheap option

The whole season has been depressing and awful to watch Not arguing DC played entertaining football he too was defensive minded in L1 and played with fear often tailoring his selection to suit the opposition no matter what their league position was instead of having an identity and letting the opposition worry about us ! But he deserved respect for his time here and didn’t get much towards the end GC however is a step backwards we shopped at Aldi instead of Waitrose with that cheap option appointment Holloway has a football brain and could’ve taken us a step further Let’s see the in’s an out’s in the summer and see where GC is taking us then but I’m not having him and while i’d Love to be proved wrong I believe I won’t be

Now that really is hilarious. Why do people (not just you) have to come out with extreme illogical comments like that, whenever the name Holloway is mentioned? He might not be the right candidate, and he might never get the job, and that's fine, but the prospect of Holloway is quite clearly not 'hilarious', whether you think he's any good or not.

Well it is, because that’s my opinion & you will have to accept it as such. Just as some think Holloway is the messiah and exactly what the club needs etc...

Now fit again as he's played 90 minutes in both of the last two development games? He was with the physio on Friday at Nuffields North Bristol

Holloway had his chance many years ago and is now a Manager on the down curve as is proven by nobody at present wanting him. Heart on his sleeve for us but how anyone can criticise GC on him keeping us up is a joke. It has not been pretty and it never was going to be pretty. It wasn't pretty either the second half of last season or the start of this under DC. The team has been built on good defensive players in about 8 of the positions in the team and DC left us with such unbalance in the side that it was a struggle to really pick a team that would fit any formation. Apart from one game Doncaster away we have been organised and bloody tough to beat. Cheap option maybe but he did the job when we were really heading for disaster. We had lost the last three home games to Scunthorpe, Gillingham and hammered by Doncaster- we had been put out of the FA Cup at home to Barnet and had lost 2-0 at Exeter in the Checky Cup and so had six defeats on the trot and were 4 points adrift of safety. I had even lost faith in DC's ability to find the right players in the January window and whilst I can't prove it the signs were there that we would have been down by February. To then say that finding JCH was luck Ok it might have been but surely it was a s nuch luck as when we signed Jason Roberts and signing Nichols and Luke James was bad luck!
