Well we don’t have a ton of evidence to go on. I personally think the playing staff and then the manager are what decides our fortunes more than anything. The amount of influence people are attributing to individual coaches seems crazy to me but I suppose we’ve got to blame someone.

What’s the point you’re making? That a coaching staff consisting of Mark Robins, Adi Viveash and Dennis Lawrence was a generational powerhouse that could never be bettered and would have inevitably delivered promotion?

“Were” being the operative word there.

The setup during the bulk of the MR era was non-existent, and what coaches we did have were also mostly no-marks at senior Championship level. Which is totally fine if you’re seeing results out of it, but if you’re not?

Frank Lampard as manager? I think the jokey press conferences alone would end up making me want to Talk to Frank hahaha But on a serious note, I don’t want him here

My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions and loyal servant to the true emperor, Richard Overson.

We are so fucking back

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?

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...

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

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

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.

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

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...

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

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...

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...
