Did we think it would be easy ? promotion that is ! did we have our road maps out in December plotting routes to Merthyr and Kings Lynn ? its tough to get promoted. Justin and Mike know that the players know it. They are working hard to get promotion but of course about 6 other clubs are as well. As supporters we must hold our nerve and back the players and management team.

: Everyone has an opinion, that's why you have a
: forum for people to express it. Sometime
: management get it wrong, and they are the
: first to voice their opinion verbally to the
: players. It is healthy that supporters can
: have their say. Whilst I have much respect
: for the duo, they themselves sometimes in
: our eyes, get it wrong. Players like
: Faulkner, Ketch, Bell and Rednap in my
: opinion should still be on that pitch in the
: starting line up. Ketch moved for money, but
: with what we are spending on new players
: now, we could have kept him. However, it's
: their choice on who stays, starts etc. But
: I am worried that with the way things are
: going the players hoping to be playing in
: the next division up and, may not be here
: next year. I don't see any new players
: brought in any better than the ones we had
: originally, with exception of Smith.

: Exactly - amazing how one of these
: 'dedicated
: fans' who 'have the right to criticise'
: doesn't recognise the name of Roger Cherry -
: someone who is heavily involved with the
: club (and posts under his own name).
:
: Could it be that some of these 'dedicated
: fans' who have appeared from nowhere and
: suddenly criticise Justin and Mike are not
: really dedicated fans at all - maybe
: (whisper it) some are fans of other clubs?
:
: No doubt some people will criticise another
: Committee member posting their own personal
: views. I have not posted on this
: messageboard since becoming a Committee
: member (except match reports) for this
: reason. But it is increasingly difficult to
: stand by and watch as some people who are
: not even willing to make it known who they
: are, and say they are 'the majority', attack
: the management team who have given us the
: most successful season in years.
:
: It has been said before - the management
: team (like every other in my time at City)
: are approachable and will always talk to
: supporters. If you have a question, talk to
: them. Do not just post criticism, some of it
: verging on the personal. Remember that
: virtually every player in the current squad
: was brought here by Justin and Mike - they
: must rate them.
:
: There are people who have posted on here for
: years under user names - some of them make
: no secret of who they are and some of them I
: have no idea. Even if I don't agree with
: them, they tend to make considered points
: and obviously have the club's best interests
: at heart.
:
: Whoever the self-appointed 'majority' may be
: - the 'glory hunters' Non-leaguer suggests,
: supporters of other clubs, genuine City fans
: - please think before you post.
:
: We weren't world-beaters in November and we
: aren't terrible now. Look at the league
: table - we are far, far better off than last
: year. We are 3rd and still in there
: fighting. Let's all support the team for the
: rest of the season.

: This club needs your support& so what
: if
: city dont go up ? this year has been great
: new players ,new managers & new league.

: go up or win something each year? i dont
: think so, and as for slating justin &
: fordy i would like to see those people turn
: up rain or shine train the players twice a
: week and sort matches, sighings and all the
: other stuff they do for the club and colts
: for tuppence ha'penny and earn a living as
: well.
: They're doing a great job so get behind
