i wont be going down to watch again while that clowns anywhere near the dug out, he couldn't motivate a dog in a ball licking contest, most teams at the wrong end of the table show a bit more fight towards the end, were just going down with a whimper, pathetic and people want him here next season,,, dear god wake up and give your heads a wobble, his level should be stourport or bilston at the best, worse than mccarthy, i never thought that to be possible So you're not a fan of Marcus then?

Ok

With Recruitment being local next season i'd be suprised if Marcus will be kept on no doubt if he wants to stay then he will have to re-apply like others

Subject to an open and honest selection process, including advert, job specification, shortlisting, and interviews I am happy to accept whoever the board choose as manager, Marcus Bignot included. In the event of the job not being advertised and just offered to Bignot then I will never set foot in the club again. Please remember that, by and large, those in favour of Bignot automatically we’re enthusiastic defenders of McCarthy and Maguire. If we are to start with a clean sheet then let’s do exactly that.

I heard at the time when interviews were taking place Mark Maguire never gave any other candidates a fair interview and from the set off Bignot was his main choice

At last night meeting it was stated in answer to a question that no decision has yet to be made whether we will be full or part time next year. No explanation as to whether this was down to which league we will be in. If we go part time perhaps Marcus will not be interested in staying. No more 52 week contracts, moving back to 44 week contracts.

Why bother with contracts? we seem to be doing well getting players to play for expenses only/non contract terms/next to nothing (allegedly) and all performing better than the contracted ones.

Your not wrong!! Those looking to earn a contract here or elsewhere have certainly in the main shown up those on easy street contracts. Young local NW or North Wales lads looking to improve themselves or with something to prove is the way to go for me.

Would I be right in thinking that the 1983-84 team was made up of a number of non contract players and loan signings Finished up comfortably bottom of division four Just saying,

It’s a strange one the Bignot debate as it takes a few sides.
There’s two sides that I have total respect for, but one where a group of supporters have taken a weird and quite frankly bizarre personal stance against.
Personally I’m undecided, I’ve seen some good and bad aspects of Bignot’s leadership and at this stage I can’t really nail my colours to any particular mast. On one hand I think he’s absolutely ideal at working within a tight budget and also seems very open at giving our promising young players a chance. Recent performances have been much improved and I’ve enjoyed turning up at games home and away much more than previously despite the results. On another hand the results haven’t really improved and he often frustrates me with his tactical decisions.
I’m stuck to be honest, it feels unfair to judge him on the remainder of the season as he’ll just have to absolutely go for it and that’s hardly the norm to approach a game.
Glad it’s not my decision, at this stage I suspect I’ll be pretty nonplussed whatever the outcome, I’ll be at wherever we end up anyway.

Not sure I agree that he gives youth its head. Crawford had to wait more than half the season for his chance as did Jones, who is now benched.

Glad it’s not my decision, at this stage I suspect I’ll be pretty nonplussed whatever the outcome, I’ll be at wherever we end up anyway. Agree with that. The last few games have shown a huge improvement on earlier dross so could this be a taster of what Bignot could bring to the club. On the flip side, as you say, results haven't improved and some of his tactics are bizaare. On balance, I would get rid, simply because he splits the fanbase and his record and continuing presence will undoubtedly affect season ticket sales for next season - I think we need a fresh start to raise some enthusiasm but whether anyone else could do a better job with our meagre resources remains to be seen.

I agree billyw. Your last paragraph sums it up exactly. Only a fresh start will raise enthusiasm. I hate to think what it would be like if Bignot is re-appointed and things go badly next year and that could almost spell the end of Chester FC as we know it.

I think the loan move did Crawford the world of good and his inclusion at the same time as Roberts has been the making of the lad, I think he would have struggled badly if fate hadn’t organised it that way. As for Jones he has been out due to injury I believe that’s why we had to beg for clubs to loan us a defender.

I wasn’t happy when macca got appointed, stated it on old dc. We basically gave burrs right hand man the job. As for bignot, don’t think he was the right man but it is what it is. I actually feel sorry for him as he was just brought in to polish turds.

One of the things is that we cannot defend corners and yet most of the corners we concede are cheap and avoidable. That thoroughly pisses me off.
