So we lost yesterday!

Ok I wasn't there so don't know how good or bad it was. BBC online stats showed us having plenty of possession and seemed to be some chances missed.

I can't believe the comments on this board about Ross and the guys. Lets give him a bit of a chance before we write him off. I am sure Kent and Travis know him far better than I do and wouldn't have gone with him without a degree of confidence (yeah, I know its "interim")

Cheltenham won 4-1 yesterday yet didn't get a look in against us.

Get behind him and the team (like we did last week)!

Bit harsh to sack Justin after one game mate. He got us promoted!

I get what you're trying to say but it doesn't make sense. Justin inherited a side in freefall and no one expected us to suddenly become brazil. We did, however, see a clear improvement despite the loss. Ross has inherited a very good side that has been playing extremely well and with expectations very high. Getting spanked by relegation favourites is always going to raise eyebrows. Of course we shouldn't be overreacting to yesterday, suggesting Ross get the tintac.etc, but to suggest that yesterday was acceptable is also wrong. People have their doubts about Ross for entirely justifiable reasons and days like yesterday are not going to do anything address that.

IMO, if we had wanted to promote from within the club we should have gone with Danny Webb. He's got the experience of managing the side during a very difficult time under Beelzebub.

Agree with the gist but let’s be honest, we haven’t been playing ‘extremely well’ for some time.

The manager is a bit of a distraction from the fact we've under recruited over summer whilst selling the assets that dug us out of a hole last season when the going got tough. Put both together in a stronger division and the wake up call was coming. Glad it didn't happen against Cheltenham though.
