    some fans need a reason to spend their money and they haven't had it for a long long long time.

    Fisher: Why Andy had to go

    I know as a fan you have to view your own team through rosy spectacles but surely I can't be the only one who saw what happened in the close season 2011 and thought - we are going down. It would have been a miracle on a par with the raising of Lazarus for Thorn to have kept us in the division...

    Fisher: Why Andy had to go

    I would say it makes sense only in as much that it is vaguely english. It actually tells you a big fat nothing you couldn't work out for yourself. Clubs that sack their manager after three games don't have a plan - they are making a knee jerk reaction. My guess - if it is not connected with...

    CET: Nearly 40 managers have applied so far.

    I should have thought Shaw and Carsley are favourites merely because they are already here and will cost SISU nowt. My observation of football managers is that they are all over-rated. If they have money behind them they do well and if there's none they do badly. as an example arsene wenger is...

    Why I like the diamond and how it suits us.

    which is why the diamond doesn't work. the full backs are expected to do too much. If the wingers can't cross they aren't wingers. Having said this there are very few players who can cross the ball which is why David Beckham is so highly thought of for a very limited player.

    CCFC - too many egos, frustration and no clear plan ?

    Agree AT was never a manager. Mind I could say the same about a lot of the characters that run football teams throughout the country. However the reason he was in the hot seat was entirely down to the fact that he cost SISU nothing. He was already here. Presumably we will now get in someone...

    Theory!

    not a bad theory but a) it suggests SISU actually have a plan b) notoriously managers prefer their own signings to someone elses. My theory is that the timing has something to do with the rent negotiations. The Council want SISU to demonstrate a commitment to the club. Was the sacking...

    Andy Thorn's sacking

    Some people just won't let go will they? We have had a succession of so called managers. 11 in 11 years. In that time not one has set the world alight. Yet to many Thorn is to blame for everything that is wrong with City. Well he's gone now so you've got your wish. I hope all your other...

    fleetwood in for jennings

    a vital component is that Fleetwood have money. we have nowt. they also play a very stylish game of football. we are in the same league as Crawley who also have money but are one year ahead of Fleetwood in their progress through the leagues.

    big squad-rotation is the key

    squad rotation is nonsense for a club in our position. you are talking about a bunch of players all of about equal quality otherwise you are never playing your best team. Your best team should play (and want to play) every game. Your best team with get you to your highest achievable position. a...

    I went to Bristol

    Yes . I suspect i have more idea what the merits of clubs in the area I live in are than you. I also talked to rovers fans after the game and they weren't happy.

    I went to Bristol

    To me it is irrelevant how people played although it was the last game before the first meaningful match. I didn't like the way we played. Maybe I'm just old fashioned but I'm not a fan of having the midfield very tight (diamond?) with the only wide outlets the two full backs. When they got...
