" Nailing my colours to the mast DJ has my support "

Just to redress the balance a bit I'm fully behind Dave Jones to change him now would an act of lunacy for a million reasons so I'm firmly in the DJ camp because I also believe he will get us up

I am fully behind him (pause) as long as he is at this club!

Re: nailing my colours to the mast DJ has my support

Vince I am of the very same belief and it is about time fellow fans get behind him also and support him for the good of the team.

Vince after some deliberation I have to agree with you. BUT if he fails to take us up with the squad we have he will have to go. He has talked quality players to come to the club' but has not addressed the cronic need for a defensive unit that will assist our prolific forward line.

It needed addressing last year as that final was ours but we cannot defend a lead end of!!!!!!!!

You've been up in the mountains too long!

Cmon get ya head out of the clouds he's lost the respect of the players and when Ross scores tomorrow that will be that.

If he means getting rid of him then I hope leeds beat us because he simply hasn't a clue about football.

i think he might be losing his marbles with some of the decisions.

Ps I backed him until the forest game, swansea line up was incredible to say the least.

I agree now lets get the players to show us some spirit on the pitch and fight for the points as we did against leicester in the home league game last season its time to start our run in and WIN the championship

COME ON CITY

I'm not happy with the way Dave Jones has been handling team affairs recently or his seemingly ignorance towards the fans, but I agree that it would be lunacy to sack him now, it would make matters worse, as you say "for a million reasons"

i applaude your honesty,i think its time for a change,or some sort of cull in the squad :ayatollah:

Vince,

Up until the Watford game DJ had my full support I was teatering after the game but I still dont think you could sack a manager when he is second in the league (Look what happened to Boro) but after the Bristol City game and four points in twenty one (Other managers sacked for worse) how can you defend him - had the same conversation with Carl and Annis straight after

Unfortunately we are on the slippery slope downwards, you can clearly see the players dont believe in him (Burke prime example - best player by far up till the jacks game - dropped and now a shadow of what he was)

You are a brave man but i respect your opinions maybe you know something we dont know but if we do stick with him they have to make the decision and come out and say now - We will back you till the end of the season if you dont get us promoted your gone !

Would also be interested to hear what you think of the malaysians and there long term stratergy cause i dont see one apart from gambling the club on promotion

i have to disagree with you vince.
get a new manager in now so he can get rid of/buy new players during the transfer window.

Absolutely right..I listened to the man's interview today and he needs and deserves our support. However he could help himself by refusing to stick with players like Naylor who keep letting him and us down.

I agree. I believe he can turn this around. Sure, we're having a horrible run.. but what team doesn't have a bad run? It's just the fact that we're not living up to our expectations at the moment. It's only half way through the season! If we beat Leeds tomorrow and say we start winning more games, most people will go back to 'Team DJ', besides those who have never liked him. I believe if we change our manager now, it may ruin the whole season for us.. it would take time for a new manager to get used to a club, it's too late to change a manager now. We just need to get behind our team tomorrow.

I'll be there :ayatollah:

When DJ gets us promoted next May I expect all of the snipers to apologise. Its as if you want him to mess it up just to prove you were right.

The team comes first - and at this moment in time DJ is our leader. Support him.

Finally someone talking sense on this board, well done Vince DJ is the man!

I've supported DJ up until now but if we lose tomorrow he should go. It's all well and good saying it would be lunacy to get rid of him now because of where we are in the season but if this bad run of ours carries on then we're going to be out of the playoffs before we know it are you all going to carry on supporting him then? Tomorrow is a huge game we all need to get behind the boys regardless who is manager. :ayatollah:

Maybe this is why they have stopped signing anyone else?? perhaps til
after tomorrow?. I dont think it matters who he signs any more. The
spirit has left the dressing room. New faces might just add to the tension
instead of easing it. And new faces dont mean new formations or tactics.
