What a childish poll. 'I am still a happy clapper'. Why the need to insult fellow Town supporters? Today was awful and as someone who is emotionally invested it hurt but I won't allow it to make me into a vulture. Grow up Come off it mate, your only defence is to try and insinuate people are mocking Hoyles health when they’re not. You then call those who are disgruntled vultures whilst playing another victim card that you’re being insulted. Maybe have a think about your last line yourself. Some definitely are but my 'only defence' of what? Don't worry about me. I know who the reasonable and balanced adults are on here |

I’ve voted to get rid of MF only. Another transfer window is almost over and most of our business (irrespective of what you think of that business) is done. I can’t see Bromby being here beyond the summer but I’d be surprised if he was to go before. He is part of the problem though. If all he does is sign players and appoint head coaches then he might as well go on Tuesday night at the latest coz what’s the point in keeping him if he can’t sign anyone until the summer anyway. And if he’s responsible for signing anyone else or appointing the next head coach then God help us. Surely him and Fothers will be the first to go once we get a new owner anyway. In the meantime we can do without him. |

Really bad game. Coventry were dirty bastards, sat quite deep and hit it long effectively. Gyokeres and Palmer were threatening. We were really poor on the ball, and couldn't or wouldn't build attacks. Lowton, Ruffels, and Holmes were downright terrible. Hogg and High just didn't work as a pair, they were both pretty sloppy, neither tried to carry the ball forward, and they slowed our play right down. Coventry grew into the game, kept pressure up, and their first goal had been coming. We responded by keeping the ball quite well without creating much at all, then got hit by a sucker punch goal from Palmer. I switched the stream off at that point so can't comment on the rest of the game. It was pretty abject and 2-0 was fair on balance

I've seen happy clapper, bed wetter and neither of these bother me to be honest. I just chuckle over them. Pete lighten up they are just words. I'm sure you've been called worse in youre life I most certainly have  Thanks but I'm not upset. When we don't play well and lose it gets me down but it wouldn't help me feel better to slate fellow Town supporters |

Just me being lazy and not wanting to scroll thru loads of match pages. Can someone just give me a rundown of the game, ie was it a deserved 2nil etc. I'll delete this after. You can delete now please and refer to the Coventry v Town match thread. |

Coventry were nothing special.
Town set up defensively.
We were OK for first 15 minutes.
We never looked like scoring.
Man of match for us was goalkeeper.
Centre halves were OK.
Coventry deserved to win but 1-0 would have been a fairer reflection.
Seems a long trip home on the coach ...

How long before you accuse the poster of not having empathy? To be honest, I think after today, anyone who is happy with MF and LB are happy clappers. Because let's be honest, what is there to be happy about from these two? I do think after today, a few light hearted words can easily be taken put of context. We are all deflated! Let's stick together |

I in the past have defended our coach however after listening to his post match interview I seriously believe the guy is deluded. Apparently we were really good in the first half despite their goalkeeper having practically nothing to do. I thought at half time we would make substitutions with such as Diarra, Hungbo and Kasuma in order to take the game to a side lacking in confidence and having won just once in their last 8 games. But no we had to wait to go behind before anything happened and then we took Rhodes off when we needed to get more men into their box. Scott High could not get into his loan side but walks back into our team despite him being unable to create anything. He even waffled on about Anjurin and Jones who to my knowledge have hardly figured in our team this year. Clearly we need a left back as Ruffles struggles to defend and offers little going forward. On top of all this he brings every player into our box to defend set pieces when even armchair fans know that all you do in that case is kick the ball out only for the opposing team to press again as we saw today with the second goal. I am also starting to tire of him going on all of the time about how well some players have done in training only to see them on match days not being able to make the most simple of passes or create nothing in front of goal. So I have now come down on the side of him having to go however due to current circumstances I don’t think it’s going to happen. My only hope is that some of his coaching staff start to be honest with him and get him to change tactics and get the extra 10 to 20% we need out of players in order to go for scoring two goals as we clearly struggle to defend one goal leads.

Bromby stated in radio l***s interview after sacking Schofield that we had to get this appointment right. Well he didn't, he got it hopelessly wrong and so needs to carry the can.
He's also signed a load of players who are either injured or haven't improved us. How long do we have to suffer this mis-management before he takes some responsibility.
Its definitely both from me.

“I've been a fan my whole life and like them (the fans), I'm embarrassed, humiliated and shocked by the results.
"Since coming back from the World Cup our form, other than one or two games, has been poor. Some of the players also need to take responsibility.
"For me personally, I'm a fan and I'm 64 now. I've been going for nearly 60 years. I take responsibility.
"At the end of the day, I'm the chairman of the club and I've overseen, on the football side, the changes we've made.
"They deserve better than that. I'm absolutely determined to get this right and we will double down with the board our vision and our strategy across the club”
Aberdeen’s Chairman after sacking Jim Goodwin today.
Oh to hear some genuine leadership, ownership of the issues & taking of responsibility from our board.
Instead, we get silence, a manager spouting bollocks and a club on free fall back into League 1.

Pity the survey had to have the happy clapper option. It's a serious question and would get enough response without the sarcasm. I voted for both but in reality we're too late with Bromby now. We need someone to negotiate a deal for a left back and keeper before Tuesday. But yes we need a change in Bromby's roll before the next transfer window as whatever he's doing in the transfer market isn't working and he put his neck on the line with MF's appointment. I realise he's had a lack of funds but there seems to a focus on quantity not quality. For example Kambieri and Waghorn - why not 1 good striker instead of two questionable signings?
There's no debate on MF - must GO NOW

Watched the game live at the Stadium, we started confidentally, 1st 20 minutes, without troubling their goalkeeper.
Coventry crept into the game & created chances from open play, was satisfied at half-time, at 0-0.
2nd half we started sloppy, Coventry created more chances from open play, as usual we had no cutting edge, service to Jordan was poor, although he wasted a golden chance 2nd half, putting a poor header, which their keeper easilt saved. Although a previous poster, was critical of Holmes, he was bright & sparky, particularly 1st half.
Thought we were abject after going behind, Coventry were ordinary, but better than us.
Playing Jordan upfront on his own, is not working for me, glimmer of hope is getting Knockart fit & playing.
In my opinion, playing like this will see us relegated.

This is exactly why Bromby should hold his hands up and admit he's forked up. Fotheringham while clueless and obviously on mushrooms didn't employ himself. MF needs to be relieved of his duties and Bromby too. We need to act quickly |

"growing up" is bad not good. What kind of life is it when you have to be all mature and circumspect and polite about such an obvious turkey of a manager? He was never going to be a success anywhere because as well as being a moron, he is a fucking awful person. You don't require any stats to illuminate why he's never going to be a success anywhere. A switched on person wouldn't have let this c*** past the first interview.

Probably too late, but Buzz needs to go & quick - UTT. |
