    Supporters forum 6pm November 11th

    No disrespect to Pete who undoubtedly puts the work in, and not to make it sound like a grave matter of constitutional importance, but long-term it’s not an ideal way to decide who nominally speaks for thousands of City supporters is it?

    Supporters forum 6pm November 11th

    Not exactly a big deal for me who goes to this forum on Monday, but I’ve said it before - it’s slightly odd that this forum has gained some sort of official supporter group status with a regular seat at the table, and if it’s going to continue long-term then maybe it’s a good idea to formalise...

    Noise from the players is deafening

    On the list of shambles we’ve endured over the past decade I don’t think it ranks that high tbh

    Noise from the players is deafening

    Isn’t it usually pretty random who they send out? Bidwell is also one of the most senior players at the club.

    Cheer up everyone

    Will forever maintain that the new club chairman stripping to his underwear to put himself front and centre in the club’s marketing campaigns was a red flag that didn’t get the attention it deserved at the time.

    Rhys Carr - Interim Head Coach

    Is that a fact? The only thing we know about the hiring process is that the club will “take its time”.

    Rhys Carr - Interim Head Coach

    Think people are discounting the chances of this guy getting the job full time. The only person we know to be involved with hiring decisions who is still at the club (Claire-Marie Roberts 😱😱) is clearly a huge fan and he will gladly work under the structure favoured by the club hierarchy. If...

    Noise from the players is deafening

    If you were expecting her (or any one backroom staff member) to transform the team one way or the other within the space of a few months then that’s probably more on you imo

    Noise from the players is deafening

    I’m not really sure to be perfectly honest with you, but that’s not what my post was about Personally my expectations of how much one single member of the backroom staff can transform the fortunes of the team one way or another appear to be wildly lower than most other people on this forum. The...

    Noise from the players is deafening

    Some of the criticism of her is clearly gendered though. The appointment of a former Premier League executive to oversee sports science at the club should hardly be considered a controversial appointment, but people are still questioning her credentials. There’s an inherent mistrust and doubt...

    Doug - what would you do if your son was at home, crying all alone on the bedroom floor ‘cos he’s hungry? And the only to feed him is to, sleep with a man for a little bit of money, and his daddy’s gone - somewhere smokin’ rock now, in and out of lockdown, I ain’t got a job now. Well for you...

    Agreed I think we should hear from him tonight. But from his POV it’s probably a good idea to wait until things have calmed down a bit.

    OFFICIAL: Mark Robins has been sacked

    It’s been discussed on other threads - only meaningful thing you can do is dress it up as him leaving by mutual consent, and I’m really surprised that isn’t what’s happened.

    Right who's the next manager then?

    Rosenior is 2 points off a European spot in Ligue 1 with Strasbourg, he’s probably less likely than Potter.

    Right who's the next manager then?

    Well yeah, that was the career alternative for our signings dating back to ~2021. Those squads were all-in on making MR a success. The current lot all think they should be playing in the PL, and I don’t think too many care if it’s with us or not.

    Right who's the next manager then?

    The point is that Viveash isn’t some legendary figure within the game - he only had a reputation to speak of with ex-Chelsea youth players, and we ended up signing most of them! I think our current squad has ambitions of working with a different calibre of setup and I don’t think Robins could...

    Right who's the next manager then?

    Viveash’s pedigree was youth football and Cirencester Town

    OFFICIAL: Mark Robins has been sacked

    They could have at least checked it for spelling and grammar…

    OFFICIAL: Mark Robins has been sacked

    Dress it up as leaving by mutual consent, convey to him before last night’s game that it might be a curtain call, give him the opportunity to issue his own statement….all sentimental bullshit at the end of the day, and who knows if MR even wanted it that way. But if anyone deserved it…
