After the match yesterday DC went over to a bunch of Gasheads getting on a coach. He talked about how disappointing it was conceding like that but he also promised to get us promoted! That's a big big promise but I trust him!
He also mentioned how important it was that players and supporters stick together through the last game/play-offs.

Did he say when though! ? If its not this season he still gets my vote to take us up next season. DC is the best man to get us promoted.

Unfair critisism of DC again yesterday IMO.
We often question his selections, but if he gets the result, I button it and say well done. Given our form in the last 6 months, he has proved right much more than not. Yesterday he was right until the last two minutes, you can't account for your keeper making a mistake. And for those questioning dropping Mildy, everyone was very complimentary of the strong decision by DC at the time.
I know people are upset, emotional, but some of the negativity directed at certain management/players has been out of order.

Didnt take long did it?

If we don't go up this season I wouldn't be sorry to see him replaced for his failure.

Those conditions yesterday made it very difficult for both goalkeepers and defenders in particular at set-pieces.
The mistake we made was to hand the initiative to Dover and to give them the opportunity to get back in the game. Ellis looked like he was limping when he came off but we should have replaced his pace and energy we didn't and paid the price.
Always easy to blame the goalkeeper because any error costs you.

If we don't go up this season I wouldn't be sorry to see him replaced for his failure. To be honest, the only reason I haven't renewed my season ticket yet, is just in case the board make the rediculous mistake of getting rid of DC if we don't go up. I'm all for sticking with the club and being loyal, but this would be the biggest cock up of them all. Do you remember our previous managers? Do you really think, as a fifth tier club, we could hope for much better than DC? In our first season down (how many others manage it?), we are challenging for the title in the last game, with a team that gives 100% and one of the best dressing room for morale and effort we could hope for. We have lost 1 match in 28, have the best defense in the division and would have already won the league if we didn't have to spend the first few games adjusting. Read back a few months, many people regarded reaching the top 5 as a mark for success or failure. Some even said top 10 and consolidate would be ok for them. What planet are you on? Be careful what you wish for...

No I didn't, if he's the manager next season I'll support him fully as unlike you IVE ALREADY RENEWED MY SEASON TICKET, if it's him fair enough, if it's not then I won't lose any sleep at night, I'm not gonna get into why cuz I can't be bothered to explain myself and frankly I don't have to

Be careful what you wish for... He is on the same planet as me,sick of watching us change our team and shape for no reason and end up dropping points to weaker opposition,so if we fail and he goes so be it. also I have been disappointed with the commitment in many away games this season from certain individuals As for looking back and being happy with being fifth,well I for one didn't realise how crap the football teams are in this league this season. And we have already got our season tickets

I just tell the truth. Sometimes it upsets people, but I am rarely wrong. We have players in this squad that are clearly up to the job and others that sadly are not anywhere near good enough.

At the end of the day, Puddy has made a couple mistakes and that one will be seen as very costly. Mildenhall has also made mistakes this season that have costed us points. Speiss also made a couple of mistakes that cost us points.
Clarke brought Mildenhall straight back in the side after his injury when Puddy made no mistakes, Mildenhall had a couple of issues and Clarke got stick for that
Puddy has come back into the side but made a costly mistake and of course, Clarke will take some stick for that.
The way I see it, we have two conference keepers and unfortunately, conference keepers will make mistakes. Mildenhall clearly has been the better keeper in the past, I do feel he has lost a step however. Puddy has slightly better distribution but I feel Mildy is more likely to pull off a suprising save. They both can be suspect under pressure.
I'd probably edge towards Mildy, but there isn't a great deal in it at all.

As for DC, his remit was top five and he's got us at the least second place. He deserves another shot next season unless he gets taken elsewhere.
Another manager = another rebuilding job, which we cannot afford - in both time and in wages.
