No point in wasting money sacking him. Suck it up guys, we are going down whoever is in charge. Let’s regroup in the summer on and off the pitch and give it a good go in the North.

I take your point but it is essential that a manager comes in immediately after the last game of the season in order to promote season ticket sales and give the new manager ample time to choose his squad. Feelers should be put out now to prospective managers.

What happens if we do bring someone else in and we carry on being as useless for the rest of the season as we are now, will that sell season tickets and fire the fans up for next season.

I can't see many season tickets been sold to watch us struggling in the bottom half of the conference north

I still can’t believe there is a huge debate about new manager or keep MB? Surely we should be united in removing those who remain on the board who tried really hard to kill the club. Beyond comprehension get them out now. Then many may consider getting involved with the club.

Financially it can't be worth it. Dropping down a League might not be so bad after all, everything considered. On the other hand...I'm looking back a couple of months even, and there's still time and points to get? You seem to have just given up on the pitch? They're all getting paid a wage. Earn it guys. There's still plenty of time and points up for grabs. You need someone like Barry Fry to have a chat at half time. Someone to come in and give each and every flipping one of them a piece of his mind. Get off their lazy wage collecting arses and shift themselves!

Yet, you always seem to raise your game against your noisy neighbours? Only at Prenton Park.We enjoyed an incredible run of undefeated against The Chester in the League from 77/78 to 2013. That is some record. So much that in those decades you were delirious with a 2-2 draw at Wrexham - in any competition. Since 2013 it's been a mostly torrid time for Reds fans. You certainly 'raised your game'

They should ALL be got rid of - as should the wage thieves on the pitch who aren't even TRYING any more. I saw all the games in the seasons when we had to apply for re-election. We were bad then,but at least the players TRIED. Not any more, sadly. Neither have they got a manager who really cares.

My first 3 seasons supporting Chester we finished 24th on each occasion. We moved up to 23rd one of those seasons when Accrington went bump. This team is much worse than any of those 3. Even in those 3 seasons games were exciting. The only decent game of footie I've seen in the past 14 months was the young blues v Gateshead.

Clutching at straws there Al. It was only when we got the late penalty that we looked safe and it was a false dawn after all.

Not sure how in the know they are but the match report in the NLP today suggests a managerial change could soon take place.

I think there is a general acceptance that they didn't do a great job but surely you can't think they did it on purpose? As for those that are left - with the right leadership and proper direction from the top I'm sure they can do better. Of course, if you think you can do better that option is always open......I'm just saying that we might be better served now by trying to pull together, raise the money needed to safeguard the the club and then take stock when the season is over rather by than continuing what is becoming a witch hunt led by a small minority. I was one who put my name to the EGM motion - IMO the aim was achieved, we have had a massive wake up call and it's up to all of us to pull our finhers out, not just point them at others. All this backbiting is only going to deter people who might be interested in going on the board in future.

Feelers should be put out now to prospective managers. What happens if we do bring someone else in and we carry on being as useless for the rest of the season as we are now, will that sell season tickets and fire the fans up for next season. The top priority must be in securing the clubs financial future, but can the Club also allow the fan base to be eroded even further with the current performance of the first team ? I understood that crowds need to be kept to their current minimum level (or preferably much greater) for the 8 remaining home games to avoid even greater financial problems towards the end of the season, even with more significant cost cutting and income raising initiatives. This is is clearly a nightmare conundrum, but doesn’t maintaining the status quo at this time also pose a significant risk to the long term future of the Club ?

The mess is deeper than that. Also Maguire went on Friday for info.

All this backbiting is only going to deter people who might be interested in going on the board in future. At the Open Meeting on 3 February, Simon Olorenshaw stood up and asked fans to park all their accusations and moans in the yellow bucket on the table and that we should ALL move on now and concentrate on the future. This has been a hard lesson that hopefully we will learn from and as AGL says none of those who were on the Board took the job on to wilfully bring the Club down. They are probably all in shock anyway. When the financial situation is back under control, however long that takes it must be priority, we must take a serious look a the process of electing people on to the Board. It must be made clear it isn't just a case of rocking up to a Board meeting once a month which a lot of fans probably that's all that is involved. So back to the thread, as has been mentioned, there possibly could be an interesting development in the managerial position according to the Non- League paper. It may not save us from relegation but it would certainly put more bums on seats. There is also another great article by exiled Chester fan Steve (the Card) Hill on our plight. His book on doing The Card following Chester is due to be published in March so that should be a good read as the Goats were very unhappy about one of his articles.

Pure guesswork but I am going to predict that Bignot will be gone by Wednesday and replaced by Neil Young or Graham Barrow. As Pauline says, may not save us from relegation but will definitely help our financial cause.

Thanks for all the comments to My posts. I’d like to think that fans didn’t deliberately set out for it to end up as it has. If I had the time yes I would put myself forward for the board. That is a difficult commitment considering my West Midlands base. As previously mentioned all I want is for our club to be sound financially and vaguely successful at whatever level that ends up being. It is going to be difficult with our sadly dwindling fan base. I’m still extremely angry that it could ever come to what it has. That said trying to move forward we need much improved communication. That needs to be monthly with firm evidence of being on a sound footing. This must not be aloud to slip. As previously pointed out this 50-100k needs to be the start and people need to realise that fundraising needs to be a long term thing. We must move forward together and I must try to let go of what’s happened to our club. Let’s hope for a brighter future with clear communication also making people feel like it’s tgeir club which was sadly lost.
