You're very upset with anyone who disagrees with you this. I think many on here are acting absolutely ridiculously. You keep telling yourself you aren't if it helps.

It'll be like a cross between a trial and wake if people on this thread get their way.

People venting on a message board doesn't mean it will translate to shouting and screaming at the forum.
I'd be amazed if it did

No but this is a thread about the supporters meeting and you have just gone off on someone for basically saying they want questions at said forum to be asked about future plans.

It’s not like we have years of these events with Tim Fisher to know how they work and what happens when you start ranting or asking questions to which you will clearly be met with a straight bat.

I do want to know why he’s timed this 2 days before a game going into a 2 week break but doesn’t know who he wants as a replacement.

Fair play mate, I’ll ask him what his favourite colour tie is instead

I've already told the kind of thing I'd rather know. Ignore it for some back slaps though.
As I said we don't need another Pete, genuinely would send David so we get a variety.

If this still goes ahead, I have a feeling the new manager will be announced beforehand.

Can't see King attending this with everything up in the air.

I went off because he went on about not being emotional.
He's not the first one. I find it a very weird take. Football an emotional game, for some of us anyway.
But I suppose that's the (Sky) era we live in.

Yes yes it's the Sky era. There's more than one emotion. Getting pissed off with constantly losing is one of then.
Excitement looking forward is another.

No, I agree. But there's no need to really say it, I'm not sure what the clowns who do say it are trying to prove.
Though equally anyone who thinks the forum is going to be a candid reveal of what's going on behind the scenes is delusional.

I guess I'll just have to hope one of them has an interest in the future of the club then. I'd rather the balance was coming from forum representatives though.

Who doesn't get pissed off when we lose.
But sometimes it goes with the territory unless you support a select band of clubs.
More Sky era thinking.

There is every need to say on a thread about the supporters forum where people were wanting over emotional questions at said forum

Precisely, that’s how they told us.
Do you honestly think Doug would want us to know that he already had someone lined up?

I read an opinion somewhere reckoning this has all been planned sometime, and that the back to back wins had been extremely inconvenient. Looking back, if Robins was indeed backed in to a corner over Viveash as has been suggested, perhaps the plan was for them both to go over the summer. Robins couldn’t have been sacked at that point without an even bigger response than we are seeing now, including an impact on ST sales, but if he had “left on a point of principle” It would have been a different matter.

With respect you aren’t speaking for the forum. You are shooting from the hip and not being very rational.

I do have to agree on the point about suggesting boycotts at the start of games.

Whatever people think the decision isn’t changing it’s happened. Only time will tell if it’s the right one or not. The club is the thing that unites the supporters not the owner m, the manager or even the players they all move on.

I agree with you though the owner explaining the decision he’s made is still important, we haven’t sacked a manager in a very long time so it’s not a trivial event.

Whoever the new manager is should get our full support and I think he will.

I don't think people should go. Actions speak louder than words and his have shown us what he's about. Don't talk to him he's not one of us, he'll divide us more when people fall for his polished crap 'answers'. Don't give the egomaniac his thrill. Voice your frustrations in the stands and through your wallets. It's bait to make us look reactionary and him calm and all knowing . Leaving it a week in the hope we'll relax shows what a coward that oddball is.

Yeah let's boycott. NOPM!

It's pathetic, let's face it.

People are having a competition to see who can be angriest online.

I think it’s a bad decision that wasn’t handled very well. At the same time if we start organising boycotts and mass protests over a manager who isn’t coming back, this will turn into a car crash of a season.
