Discounting the non signing of dan johnson, the selling of the countries leading scorer, then allowing possibly the successful/popular manager the club has had to leave and replacing him with DEAN ......... SAUNDERS, i and yes i am still discounting all that, think you talk out ya rectum.


the non signing of dan johnson when I heard on good authority that 50k would have been enough to sign him from Villa was the time Cook realised the clubs ambitions did not match his and was the start of the downward spiral because Cook started looking for a way out

But how the hell has it got to this state of affairs?

To those people who threw abuse at Allen and his wife at the Sheff Yoo game, well done, you should be proud of yourselves! This sorry mess all started there and then, an remember it was the next evening Allen walked out an virtually left the club to its own devices!

Done out of spite? You make your own minds up!

Totally agree, but somewhere, and Know one seems to know why or when, Allen made a decision that he was washing his hands of us. If we had any inkling as to why, maybe just maybe something could have been done to put it right.

All a lot of this has done is get the fans at one or others throats.

On that note, am off to the pub.

Ashley Carson has said he was appointed to be Dave Allen's eyes and ears at the club from day one. It's remarkably sad he's gone blind and/or deaf at all these critical moments.

Well in your first post you seemed to know it was because of a tiny bit of abuse Allen got after the Sheffield United game?

Put the beer down fella. Get some sleep.

P.s laughable opening post. Fans fault!? 👍🏾😂

I am no fan of DA, AC etc and It cannot be disputed that a series of bad decisions and appointments they have made have landed us in our current sorry condition. However, I believe that no one so far has come up with a mathematically backed argument to disprove my opinion that it is only arrogance and incompetence that have led to these decisions.

The conspiracy theories that in some way DA has profited from ownership of CFC or that he is purposely running the club into oblivion make no sense.

Agreed - facts please boys.
