Horrible as this is - sacking Allen will be the thing that definitely relegates this team.
Keeping him will give us a chance of staying up.

It’s awful and I hate it but we are not losing - that is a small glimmer of a thing to cling to.
In the past few seasons we have been easy to beat.
We are no longer easy to beat. He has to be credited with that at least.
It’s not much but it is a foundation

Its a head scratcher this.mainly because i'm just not for sacking yet another manager.however failing to win whilst in the relegation zone is simply no good.we are one point adrift already and that can turn in to 4-6 very quickly,its when that happens surely action needs to be taken.i think fail to beat bromley on tuesday it should be curtains for allen.then its enter mr pemberton.

Yeah but also in previous seasons we've had a mentality of not been able to win league games and that we are still stuck with.

3 months without a win in the conference is unacceptable, no two ways about it

It's very tough to take 18 games with a win at this level. I'm trying to look for positives, 8 unbeaten mmmmm, but draws are not enough. By the sounds of it and those that went will confirm, but sounded a positive debut by the lad Hallam and he scored the goal, and it sounded like we had a number if chances to win this game which is a step in the right direction.

Bromley lost 5 of last 6 games is a must win game Tuesday now they are 4 points clear of us and would close the gap.

Should be organizing a protest for tuesday, or saturday. Dave Allen cant weasle out of this now.

Back to back relegations and now a third on the cards. Into oblivion we go.

There's a reason we have become hard to beat,.. Because there is absolutely no quality in this league whatsoever, if Eastleigh had any they would have buried us, Burton has still had to keep us in the game, whilst their keeper was cooking burgers and supping larger, we have only become hard to beat as we have got accustom to this league, we are awful at football, we do not look organised, we don't even look like we know how we are supposed to be playing, I've seen better organised Sunday league teams, if MA remains, we will be relegated, the man's a liability

And if we draw or lose that some will say if we lose the game after he should go and so on. He should have gone 10 games ago. DA and the kop choir have just watched and now we're in the bottom 4

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

How many of this squad were not brought in by Martin Allen. How many of those he did bring in are better than what we had?

It's a bit of an uneven argument in a way because he had to get rid to cut the wage bill then he takes on a reduced budget to bring players in so the quality can't be the same. If that makes sense?

We didn’t lose
We can defend ish
We can’t score
We’re in the relegation zone of this league other teams around us winning
We have improved slightly but will we stay up?
I wouldn’t sack Allen I think he’s slowly improving things
We have had to adjust our expectations and I know it’s not what any of us want but points Away are good
We must win on Tuesday
We absolutely must

Be careful not to choke on the sand that you’ve stuck your head in. When we are again relegated will you say, oh well, we’re down again but Allen was slowly improving things. Sorry, it doesn’t wash and it must not wash.

Exactly what he was brought in for , that and his blarney to shift season tickets .

Nothing has improved at all in the last 7/8 games. Whoever thinks so seriously needs to look at the players, the standard of football we play and the constant micro management MA feels he needs to input into every second of every game. Every single one of them should start rining alarm bells. Looking back i’m starting to wonder how lucky we were to win the first 3 games. We didnt play that well either.

We cant risk the ‘sacking doesn’t work’ brigade sending us headlong into another relegation, because that is where we are heading. We are garbage. We play like butchers dogs rather than being as fit as them.

Decisive action needs taking and it needs taking now. But here’s the killer punch. It wont. Nothing will change until muppet allen and muppet carson are gone, and i dont see any knights riding over the hill to save us by buying him out.

RIP Chesterfield FC

A point away from home is always a good point surely?

I would normally agree but our situation is becoming desperate so 3 points are what is required

On the back of 18 games without a win... No
Its not just anuva draw, it's another pyss poor performance, where our keeper has kept us in the game, Allen's (both of em) gotta go, or we will have no club.

Not when the team in question haven’t won for 18 games.

Why?
So we were away. Does it matter that much? We were at Eastleigh not Galatasary.

Peterborough, pushing at the top of L1, have picked up two thirds of their points this season away from home.

Music to my ears youve found another decent boozer in eastleigh apart from the Steam Town Brew Co. Where please?
