Too many out there losing their s**t. January and this summer will be the first time DC has had a chance to address the fact many in this squad possibly aren't top 10 league one players.
For what he's done for the club, he deserves that much. Booing & singing what a load of rubbbish to our players at full time is a tad disgraceful IMO.
We've all been away and seen us play shocking. Still 11th in league one, not in relegation trouble and a month of squad movements to come.
Roll on the festive period.

We have good enough players already these defeats are all down to too many team changes the players confidence must be rock bottom nobody knows if they are playing from one game to the next even after playing well players need a run of matches to play well they cannot be expected to hit the ground running every time they are picked how ironic Clarke didn't make any changes for today after a very patchy performance against bury and he got that one wrong again as proved by the 3 substitutions he made.

It's a simple rule actually. When both Bristol teams are playing home team is always on digital, away team is always on 94.9fm (or 103.6fm if you're in sunny WsM). If only one team is playing it's always fm. |

Not much he can do until the transfer window though. Unless he changes the team again, which will go down well with some... He could've tried to assemble a L1 squad. But God forbid anyone questioning thinks. Anyone remember the defensive thread where a lot of people said it doesn't matter as we score lots of goals. I'm sure those people will admit they were a bit stupid He has give moat of those that got us here a chance and we have managed to be 11th nearly halfway through thr season. We have definitley come unstuck recently and the manager has said as much and has put the players on notice to step up or they will be out. There is no room for sentiment with the current squad but their peformances in previous seasons was worthy of rewarding. Not everyone (or anyone) will make it, but you never know unless you are given the chance you earned. Isnt that the samr in any walk of life/job |

Ok, another disappointing display, result and day.
Like I've said before, we're probably punching above our weight in play offs. As promotion candidates, we just aren't good enough. That's reality.
We are where we deserve to be. Mid table. Our squad is probably that good.
Isn't that a wonderful achievement for a group of players, mostly of whom are plying their trade at their highest level?
So, why boo? Why bait? Get a f*ing grip..
Yes we need improvement.
Yes we need changes.
Yes we need to be more consistent.
It will come, just give it time. Patience. Something we all maybe have been deprived of due to our success in such a short period of time.
So, in short, it's not good at the mo, but hold fast, stick together and keep the faith..
UptheGas!

Still 11th in league one, not in relegation trouble and a month of squad movements to come. Roll on the festive period. Having been there I didn't hear what a load of rubbish, it was though. I'm still fully behind DC but he has to take responsibility. We got away with results earlier in the season but because we did people weren't allowed to discuss what was obviously staring them in the face. It is now DCs biggest ever test, easy to say what needs to happen harder to make that happen. Currently it looks hard to see us scoring goals, Bury gave us 4 on a plate, and I thoroughly believe we'll be without MT sometime I. January. That's my gut feel but something I was told yesterday reinforced that view. |

Isnt that the samr in any walk of life/job I agree that loyalty & past performance were rightly rewarded, the drawback being it gave DC very little room to enhance to squad pre-season. |

That interview is a carbon copy of any one you care to chose after any of the recent defeats.
Sounds like some players already know that they are out the door.

 Just back.Their keeper didn't have one single save to make!!!! Dreadful lack of quality out there and Puddy's error was awful.MT,TL,BB and Colkett were on the field( I'm told),but they didn't do very much at all. Bad day at the office and such a massive following.Ellis frustrates but at least gave it some real effort.Big cause for concern here after this display.Worse than Charlton and Barrow. With no wingers most of our crosses come from Browner but as Gaffers always plays wide,Sics and MT not likely to get on the end of them as they are too short. |

I thought the overwhelming opinion was that the solution to our problems was to pick a settled side. To hear that there was booing and chanting at the end is embarrassing, i didn't think sections of our support could sink any lower after poster gate at the training ground, and the behaviour at Altrincham. We are going through the usual BRFC november/december rough patch, we are 11th in a league where the squad is a bottom 8 squad, if you are looking for people to blame then i would look higher up the chain than the players and DC. Lack of player investment and piss poor communication adopting the silence approach, reeks of the old regime.

one of the problems imo is that we signed 8 players and none of them have really improved the team or made much of an impact.
people say you stand or fall on your signings well despite many previous good signings this seasons have been poor in the main.

With what's happening off the pitch, trying to put right years of neglect and under-investment, the fact that Wonga are paid off, quick decision to draw a line under the Sainsbury's farce so that everybody could concentrate on their jobs, the manager says that it was his decision to give these players a chance at this level and he's been backed with the loan players, in what way can this be spun to criticise the owners? I've just read the nonsense you've written again, ''lack of player investment'' you do know how many players we have, don't you, and are aware that the manager has been told that he has backing to bring in even more in January. However ridiculous any posters at the training ground or booing from terraces may have been, your post is right up there with them. |

However ridiculous any posters at the training ground or booing from terraces may have been, your post is right up there with them. Big squad doesn't equal decent investment, quality players is what defines if a squad has had money invested into it. Apologies that I've not been swayed by some new paint in the bars, new gates and hot food after training. You mention the Wonga loan, that was part of the deal when they took the club on, the Sainsbury farce was hardly a difficult line to draw, and loan players are the cheap option. Something hasn't been right for the last 6 weeks, in that time a director has resigned, rumours on the stadium and training ground continue to grow, the chairman has gone from speaking to the press once a week to once every couple of months. Not one single piece of significant news has come out regarding the stadium since the takeover in February. I like the fact that so many supporters have faith in the new regime, but it seems that the old regime was so poor even a 5% improvement is met with staunch support. I think we deserve better than 5%, and the one year anniversary is rapidly approaching. |

Damned if he does... Etc Look at EVERY great team throughout football. They habe ALL had a consistent team and you could easily pick the players and positions they would play in. We have nebwr had that BUT DC has earned enough goodwill points that we must give him much more time to sort this you jjsy cannot keep putting out the different teams like he does. I do wonder if he knows his best 11 at times |
