Tan why did you invest in 2 other clubs when you could have sorted us out and had a great club, just makes no sense :old:

Good luck RS you are on borrowed time, summed it all up by putting Gabbidon on the bench when a youngster could have :sladeout:



They certainly wont be able to.

Thats the problem, the club need to be honest with themselves and they have not only let the City fans down,theyve hurt us big time.

Tan for me is not our future.


A lot of positive things can still be done in the summer, starting by replacing the manager or moving him upstairs. The transfer activity needs to be positive, not what we spend but who we buy. I think we all agree some steps need to be made to encourage our young fans to attend, kids for a quid for certain games, problem is club have now dug themselves a hole as fans have spent out on ST for kids at ridiculous prices. I have 3 kids and have paid 5,10 and 15 quid on three separate occasions for them to attend in canton!! Work that out!! One thing I will say mind is a lot of fans are behaving like spoilt brats, you can't have it good all the time. That's lufe that's football! You deal with it :sladeout:


I do agree our fans have had nothing but good times and I would like to see 10,000 Renew during the Summer.


A lot will renew in the summer when they want to renew, 10,000 is achievable but only if positive steps are taken by the club. :sladeout:

Defence starts with the strikers wez and Frazier used to work his nuts off in that department. For me the stand out problem with this squad is the lack of pace throughout

We lack leadership, class, pace and more pace. The lack of weapons is frightening.

Off the field its even more concerning. We have a Manager probably drafted in above his level, an assistant manager way out of his depth. An absentee owner a toothless CEO & chairman. We have a stadium manager intent on ripping any life out of the fans and worn out fans base about to throw up the white flag. Luckily we have a trust that's allowed a non season ticket holder to be their spokesperson....

The break couldn't have come any sooner. I had forest as a must away......Just can't be arsed at the moment. Took great pleasure in throwing my season tickets in the bin this evening.

Part of me thinks Slade still needs time, there's a lot of work that needs doing to turn around the basket case of a club that CCFC are on - and off the field. Yet I still wonder if he's the right manager from his lower league non successful background? however, where do the club get to if they chop and change managers without giving them a chance????

A good post, while I see your point what I can't understand is What Slade is trying to do. If he was experimenting systems, different players and it was a work in progress then yes but even the most ardent fan has to admit that it's difficult to see what he's actually trying to do. :sladeout:

Campbell is a class act at this level, sorely missed and to think we all thought promotion was achievable this season without players of that calibre.
