    Why is it all so black and white?
    Artell is by no means perfect but he has done a decent job over the 5 years. It is not the easiest job in the world all things considered and you're talking about the man's livelihood! Fortunately we don't live in the US and people cannot be sacked on a whim.
    Patience is a virtue but it can be acquired!

    It is Black and White we are where we are because of him and therefore he has to go. His recruitment, man management and team selections have been nothing short of abysmal he fails on every single point I don’t care what he has done in the past it’s the here and now. If he is allowed to continue we are going down !!!!

    It would be interesting to know if you thought he did a good job in his previous season as manager. For me, it is not black and white. You can point to some indifferent signings in the summer but to some extent he was shafted by circumstances not entirely unrelated to the pandemic. It is correct to say he is not perfect. Who is? My support is entirely with the manager and the work he is doing. We are not in a position to be signing players willy nilly. No manager here will get it right every time but I would say over the 4 or 5 years he has been at the helm he has got a lot more right than wrong

    We need 1.4 points a game from now on in to give us 50 points. Surely not biggest ask? I’m with Timmy, Dave is good honest manager.

    As part of my training I have been taught how to assess a persons body language, and individual who can’t make eye contact with you is almost certainly telling lies, I will leave you to assess the latest press conference on the OS.

    Well there are definitely similarities between Whitehall and Gresty Road, clowns and bull shi**ers spring to mind. I can’t believe Artell believes anything he is saying at the moment from the Mandron situation to the Zak Williams situation to recalling players back from loans of which they were doing very poorly and then trying to convince only himself and a few poor misguided individuals he did because they were good enough for the first team utter crap. Then trying to gloss over how he got pretty much most of his summer recruitment horribly wrong, and then to add to that how we were going to be doing a fair bit of business in the Jan transfer window to now toning that down with every conversation he has about it. And the nerve of the man to castigate Mandron for not scoring enough goals as a striker even though Artell has him playing in a RWB position kind of blunting his ability to score goals !! Who in their right mind would put your leading goal scorer in a RWB position when one of our problems it not scoring enough goals. Sticking to formations that we simply don’t have the personnel for then blaming the players for not performing, leading by example by getting himself booked and sent off from the touch line and then having the nerve to blame players for having a lack of discipline, and finally not performing his media duties and sulking in the changing room because his brainless ideas have gone tits up. I can see why people support him NOT !!!!!
