I thought we had settled this - No, he isn’t.

What is the truth?

Personnally I would fully support him in mentoring a new manager like JD similiar to a Director of Football. But if that's the case JD is not listening.


You surely are kidding. What the hell qualifies him to mentor a manager apart from his money ?

I think that is a valid point.

If we think it's right to give a fledgling manager a chance to prove himself, then fans need to lower their expectations of promotion this season. The club should also publicly lower their expectations.

There was a really good interview with the Wycombe manager on football focus today.
He explained the difficulty from going from player to manager and it's more about having a great relationship with the players. He's done extremely well for Wycombe but it took him time.
I always thought flitcroft had a good bond with his players.

i think we all know what’s in the best interests of the club, however only the board can make it happen

COYS

But you would sack everyone....and we don't all know . Its just a group of people on here who I guess are naturally negative about everything . I would guess from your posts and comments you have been massively successful in your personal life and aren't subject in your everyday life to the sort of bile you peddle on this board hidden behind a keyboard.

Am I correct ? ….thought not -)))))))))))))))))))) on point one and correct on point two

Just stop and think man ...would you say what you post face to face.

NO

I just get absolutely depressed by some of the incessant negativity on here

When people are positive they are derided as ' happy clappers ' but you can be negative to your hearts content.

This is a journey and when we go up we want to stay up (MK ).

When you look at what is going on around us we are in a great position

Please don't boo - these are relativity young men. Do you really think this will make things better - people and your like have already created a situation where home games are toxic

Big well done - that will really help


We would be happy to give a big well done if there was anything done at home to warrant it. One scrappy win against Scunny....played really well against Oldham...
And managed to scrape a one nil win against a team bottom of the Conference by playing defensively in the Cup.

The toxic atmosphere was created by the absurd appointment of a manager without credentials who has given us boring defensive displays at home generally lacking creativity and cohesion and resulting in defeats to Plymouth Colchester Orient and Cambridge. The fans have reacted to that not the other way round.
Thank you for confirming that a toxic atmosphere prevails at the One Call. Not all same minded fans as yourself accept there is.

He couldn't offload them due to inflated wages and/or injurys. I'll take 4th with a clear pathway for youth teamers into a good passing football side over ultra defensive dross with the same underperforming players playing and anybody who dares get forwards and try and create an opening gets 15 minutes at the end.

Ahhh, so it’s our fault we don’t play the youngsters because of the ‘toxic atmosphere’.

Trouble is at our club at the moment, there’s always someone else to blame.

The hundreds of Stags fans at Moss Rose yesterday were served up some of the most negative, uninspiring football by a group of players who seemed frightened to do anything other than defend deep. There were also a couple of our “darlings” that were clearly not “up for it”.

Despite all of this, the Stags fans were NOT “toxic”. However, our silence was deafening.

Does spending an incalculable number of days travelling thousands of miles throughout the season, whilst investing a significant slice of my income watching the club I have supported since 1967, constitute “getting behind my team” ?

I reserve the right to criticise when I consider it to be appropriate (IMO, of course)

I am sorry to be so unreasonable, sunray.
