What is your response?I’m in my first season with a Season Ticket and there have been no games that I have left the ground thinking that we are playing good football, which is very sad. They just don’t seem to have a system and I question the coaching. The Bradford match, which was played in a very strong wind, showed that very clearly. Playing down wind we continually played long balls from defence and surprise, surprise, the ball kept going out for goal kicks. When Bradford played down wind they kept the ball on the ground and looked far better than we did. The MOM against the side bottom of the league was Henry, our on loan goalkeeper, who kept us in the game with 3 great saves! PLEASE GET US A COACH WHO KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE DOING, THE FANS DESRVE!

What is your response?It seems as though the board are treating the fans with complete contempt. Two extremely bad appointments since sacking beagle , love him or hate him beagle deserved a bit better than her got. These bad decisions must have cost the club a small fortune. And then to charge £16 for the pleasure of watching the absolute atrocious football that’s being played is insulting at the very least. Time for a new board before the Phoenix club returns to the ashes .

What is your response?What appears the most strange thing to me is the last two managers have been dismissed for reasons both known at appointment. Richards as he couldn't go full time and slade due to other business commitments. Why appoint slade if he couldn't commit when you sacked the previous manager for this very reason? I respect a lot of hours are put in by the board but please show the fans some respect.

What is your response?Doesn’t surprise me He talked the talk but didn’t walk the walk We still haven’t got over losing Beadle and the Board must take a lot of responsibility for their poor decisions over the last 2 seasons Our fantastic Fans deserve better
