You've surveyed every fan have you?

As for your expectations are way too high comment, I'm not sure where to start with this as its so ignorant and dumb it beggars belief.

How did you get on removing that egg from your face after making a fool of yourself the other day about the club ownership?

Ricketts was not well received at all, many thought he was a massive risk. He had us doing ok but he didn’t pull up too many trees, his work here is getting better by the week considering how awful Keates has been. We still couldn’t score under Ricketts and lost every big game.

Hughes, everyone with a brain knew that was a disaster, the most obvious disaster appointment of the lot.

Mills was pretty much universally well received as his track record was impressive but it’s not up to fans to do the digging into what a manager is like away from the football.

Going back many wanted a bigger name than Smith but he was an inspired choice.

Another bizarre post.

Are expectations way too high? I've never seen them lower. Going into the play-offs last year I didn't hear one person say we were going to get promoted. I heard only a handful of people say we'd even get past Eastleigh.

Before the season started I expected us to finish 10th, was that expectation too high?

If you're talking about expectations under Keates and the current set up then expectations should be to avoid relegation. But with a decent manager that isn't a toxic poison at this club and a club board that aren't way out of their depth expectations would be higher, and so they should be for a club this size that has as much potential as we do.

Under this leadership expectations are at bargain basement levels. Expectations should be way higher but I would think most have now come to accept a good season is avoiding the drop to 6th tier and that we avoid Spencer manoeuvring us into the Welsh Prem.

I've come to the conclusion as each week passes that I don't miss football anymore I've found new better more interesting hobbies than watching boring defensive hoofball, football will never return to how it was I'm afraid it was would take a lot to get me back there, the only thing I miss now is the banter.

The football as an entertainment has been dire pretty much since being in this league.

I most certainly won't be back whilst the poisonous wst and football board are running the club and Keates is manager. They have finished the club off.

Same here but cant see football returning to the Racecourse for quite some time and who knows what will be left to watch then and who will be running the club and team.

To be fair , you support one team in my opinion ,hell or high water , but if you want to go to Utd ,thats your look out !!
I am not about to go and support anyone else personally
