I don't think anyone 'hates' DC. He made some bizarre decisions at Barnet and people pointed that out. That doesn't make him hated.

Remember our board were unable to plan for this season because we only spent 70 minutes in the relegation zone last season....

McCrystal had a nightmare at Barnet and should have been taken off at half time - I thought Trotman looked better. DC has decided to play MC again today... individual mistakes by the same player. (And McCrystal should have been red carded for smothering the ball when he was the last man). I'm sure he is a decent chap - but maybe needs a bit of a rest. Becoming a bit of a liability. Can you imagine how much stick DC would have got if he dropped McChrystal, people already taking the piss out of him on twitter and GasChat because he made 6 changes. The sad thing is that the board and the majority of supporters will chew up and spit out a young manager who trying to make changes that we have all craved for years. If he continues to get let down by the players, the board and the supporters then i hope he walks away because he will stand a much better chance at a club that will appreciate him. Just to put an opposite point of view - what makes you so sure he is being let by the players, the Board and the supporters? Does he not have any blame in this problem before us? Not getting on his back, I want him to succeed, but you can not single him out as being of no blame in the situation we are in right now.

How well do we expect to do when certain new signings talk about looking forward to playing big clubs like Barnet.

Clarke has already seen us down. Do some of you actually forget that? The situation he inherited was bad - but I don't think it was possible to do much worse than he did with it. He talks a good game, but hasn't got the results. It is a results business. He suggested we would have a full squad by the start of pre-season. Did we fu*k. Naive. We are heading for 1 point in 9, no goals scored, and 2-0 flattered us against Barnet. Altrincham have been all over us by the sound of it, and have hit the post in addition to their goal. Its pitiful. Lets be clear if Grimsby would have been half decent and taken the two sitters they missed we would be nil points !

Goals for 0. Guess that will be individual mistakes and nothing to do with DC, I mean he's only the manager. At least he is playing 2 up front, responsibility still is the players, i know you hate him anyway paul so you aren't going offer a balanced opinion. I don't even hate you WCG & I'd like nothing more than for DC to a success here but there's no evidence to suggest that is happening is there? As to balanced opinion how f******g ironic that you say that.

Players - Hoofing when they are told not to, crap individual defensive mistakes, players not putting chances in the back of the net Board - s**te budget for such a large amount of new players that were required. Fans - OTT reaction on Tuesday and again today, if things are still s**te after 10 games then people calling for his head would sound a little more credible, at the moment the ones who were moaning before the season even started are shouting the loudest, they don't offer any kind of balanced opinion.

If I was DC I'd try and go back to a very defensive 3-5-2. This ain't working. We cannot be offensive without creative players.

I can accept being a non league team (just!), but I can't accept the team going out there and not performing. I feel for those fans at the game, they don't deserve this. DC mate you have the biggest team talk of your life coming up. Managers are judged on results at the end of the day. We are playing a f**king team that are part time and were in the Conference North last year!

We cannot even think about sacking DC. We have to have some managerial consistency. We have to get behind him. I think he was promised a 'big budget' and after the utterly incompetent Board actually did the sums - and realised we didn't have a pot to P*ss in - was given next to nothing. Please - no more changes now.

Players - coached by DC. He has to bear some blame for that. Board - allegedly a decent budget ( but guess none of us know for sure though) Fans - have had to put with too much rubbish for too long and have been watching the demise of a club to depths we never thought we would go to.

Why can't people just try something different and give the bloke some support, i'm trying my hardest because a) he's trying to do things the right way (PLAYERS aren't responding) & b) who the hell is going to come in and do a better job whilst the club is run by those in box 1.

I believe in consistency on management - a very rare concept in football nowadays, actually. Which, mind you, doesn't mean that DC shouldn't have a f***ing look around to see what he's doing

What if the manager is genuinely out of his depth? Do you still stick with them for consistency sake?

I agree that sacking another manager isn't the solution. We all know now the problems lie much deeper. Its physically not possible to have so many bad managers in a row.
