So are you or are you not of the opinion that the league position of a team is nothing to do with its manager?
It's all well and good talking about changing the manager but who the hell do we get in? And, more importantly, who does the Board think they need? If the protracted search, that ended up getting DF in the first place, is repeated, then who amongst you all think that the process would be any different this time and achieve different results?Personally, I think it's the last thing the Board wants or needs and there is no evidence that suggests otherwise. I have no idea what they were thinking before the season started and how those thoughts have changed since, but we'll get some idea when we see what happens in January. If we don't strengthen and with more experience, then the writing's on the wall. Then, they can rip up the 5 year plan and start again.

Depends what the plan was in the first place
We're not even halfway through. And we're actually 5 places higher than when Ferguson took charge of his first game
The clue is in the name. It's a five year plan!Yes, some people don't like what they are watching all of the time but last year was great bar the last few games. Too many clubs change the manager every year. Let's stick with it and if we have failed to gain promotion to the championship at the end of it then we let him go.

Doesn't need to be the same teams, were part of the same league so within a run of 6 games you'd get to play a good variety of good and bad sides.A good marker of improvement would be the two Scunthorpe games
I think it's pretty irrelevant where we are on the 9th December to be honest

Last 6 matches, if all were league ( against L1 opposition , Cant count ebbsfleet) would have yielded 8 points, previous 6 would have yielded 8 points. Where is the improvement,
I think there has, Scunthorpe best performance of the season, 2nd half v mk dons also up there. Very unlucky v oxford.
