A Direct Plea to the Board and Chaiman
We are in desperate need of a change of management
We have not won a game since 1 December, 3 months ago
The manager has made promises to turn it around, but they have been proved to be empty promises.
The recruitment of new player’s has been poor, I will not name names but we all know who I am talking about.
Discipline record has been poor; far too many sending’s off making a tough job almost impossible.
The use of substitutions has been beyond belief.
As for tactics, I don’t think we have any.
Crowds are falling away
Please, please can the management before it too late, I fear its almost too late now amd we are sliding towards relegation

Suspect it's a matter of compensation or rather a lack of funds to pay compensation. Perrin is reputed to have cost the club a five figure fee suspect it would cost that again if not more

Re: A Direct Plea to the Board and Chaiman
Which again begs the question - what were they thinking giving rookie managers contracts until the end of next season?? What were they thinking letting them sign over the hill has-beens on big money, and giving them contracts for next season?!!! I've heard what some of the big earners are getting and it's sickening to think they're stinging the club for money I very much doubt we've actually got.
I'll be there on Saturday as the club is in my DNA, but I'm very concerned now, not only about our current plight but by the prospect of what we might have to put up with in the future.

Perrin didn't cost the club a 5 figure sum - The club did and how long ago was that?
Crowds dropping off? - 25 august 258 February 318. We will i expect shed a bit more if we start losing against teams further up the table.
We are the leagues draw specialist and need to get back to taking some of these single pointers to survive. Our win rate is shocking and we're equal 2nd bottom of that table. Problem is. Looking at the fixtures coming up I cant see who we can buy a point off. Our home fixtures in particular look disastrous. Hitchen and the leaky Totton look to be our best bets.

Re: A Direct Plea to the Board and Chaiman
I've made my feelings on the subject clear and can only echo the well made points above. Like insideleft and many others CTFC is in my DNA and I too will be ther Saturday fearing that all the points made in this topic and others will fall onthe decision makers deaf ears.
Franks initial post sums up my thoughts and as for "turning the corner" Rudgey, you're so far away from it I wouldn't bother indicating.

If we could win 30% of our remaining games then I'd take it.

That crowd of 318 includes season ticket holders and a look around the ground told you there weren't that many in there. Think the attendance should be those who actually walked through the gate and not inflated by non appearances.

Cut me and I bleed blue and white, and like others, I'll still be there Saturday, but the fans deserve much better from the players, management and the board.

Re: A Direct Plea to the Board and Chaiman
Frank is asking for action to be taken by the board before it's too late. Looking at the league table after tonight's games I think it might already be too late. As far as the teams below us are concerned I think looking at games left the one relegation spot that's waiting to be filled is between us Frome and Bedworth. Next two games Barwell home and Cambridge away would need something extra special to get something out of those games. And after that it leaves 9 games to go leaving very little room for error.
Frank has pretty much laid down the problems but lets not forget this slump started last season and this season has just got worse. Rudge keeps telling us he will turn it round and perhaps whilst most of us didn't expect great things this year I don't think it was unreasonable with a new managment team and new players coming in etc that things would have at least stabilised not got a hell of lot worse.
