As you have probably worked out, it just shows you how much of a toss the clubs owner actually gives, to let this pantomime keep going.

I wonder if Dave Allen actually knows what league position we are in.

We're going down again. I must say, a hat trick of relegations is quite the achievement.

It is when you consider it cost Dave Allen around £4,000,000 in losses to achieve it.

That really is an astonishing achievement. Him and Ashley really do take the biscuit.

Erase position from your post for the purpose of accuracy

[AllTownArentWe]

I wonder if the club would be able to function in the National League North with a huge debt and probably another 1000 knocked off the crowd.

He must be amazed that he’s not been sacked.

Errrr....actually I don't think he is.

I like your rationale but it appears rationale doesn't feature at CFC.

I wonder why??

We didn't build on last Tuesday. We should have lost that game in the last few minutes. When their striker teed up his shot, I was already saying to myself we've lost the game. Then a miracle happened. He hit the post and even the rebound. We were lucky and outplayed from 62 minutes onward as they passed the ball superbly. It was only a matter of time before they put us to the sword but somehow we survived. The number of times we passed poorly and gave the ball away was criminal.
Yet again another team we can't beat. There's no improvement, just another draw and no evidence we have the players with the ability to start winning on a regular basis. Allen has put a team together that is no better than the majority in this league. That is a tragedy. We are sleep walking into the National League North and when the second half of the season starts in January, it is likely to be a crisis.
Draws are no good. Maguire, Hollis, Weston, Williams and Barry all made suicidal passes today but got lucky. As an attacking force we were just about spent spent in the second half. Amanchi had half a chance and Muggleton's shot skimmed the the top of the bar. We tried to play football but had no-one to unlock the door.
If Dave Allen doesn't do failure he going to have to spend some money soon. Is MA the right man to give it to? Not according to the Eastleigh fans it's not as they pointed out his 2 wins in 14 when was their manager.

I’d have a bet there weren’t playing the reported passing football of today when he was their manager.

Why would it not be able to function?

I mean financially. Another drop in attendances and less money from the league. Ashley Carson said that the club wouldnt be able to function in the NL North. Although I admit he has proven to be more than an unreliable source....

I am afraid Ashley does not know his head from his bottom. Financially the club has not functioned in divisions one, two and it will not function in this one either.

Further downward pressure on matchday income will mean David has to put more funds into the club.

My guess is they will close the east stand.

Martin Allen is having a negative effect on this football club. I'm not a diehard fan but fairly solid. Been watching the team for 50 years and had a ST since the last season at Saltergate. I'm reluctant to miss games I've paid for via my ST but Bromley will be the 4th miss this season (missed one or two cos I was away on holiday) and, while I was looking forward to the Grimsby game, I've decided not to bother with that now either. There will be other fans like me who won't renew for another season at this level never mind the one below, God forbid. DA chooses to do nothing about MA and the fans haven't been singing Mad Dog Out. Madness.

Just madness.

Dave Allen won't take responsibility for this season. Even though he chose the manager, and has let him recruit very poorly.

I don't see how he could stop MA recruiting poorly/ wasting a budget probably much higher than most clubs in this league. DA can't choose the players himself!

And 3 wins in 21 here. Same rate of 1 win in 7.
