Would go even further and say that that was an appalling display, considering it was a match of crucial significance as far as removing any real threat of relegation was concerned. For a BSN team to bring 5 supporters with them to a Saturday match is bad enough but to then lose to that team is much worse. If the Chairman was to give the manager his cards tonight no-one could possibly have any argument with it, and I would also be extremely embarrassed to take any 'contractual' pay-off to boot if I was the manager! 

Disgraceful, you come on here  and post like that! Unbelievable  8) Bit late old chap to try and succour anyone's favour here.    Seems to me we need to be rid of this patronising nonsense from you and your like.  8)  Far too late to try and assimilate yourself with the proper fans, don't you think?    The attempt at taking any moral high ground is pathetic, frankly, you should go first!  8)

You read into it what you want to read into it, ghm, but I despair if that's the way you think! Pathetic

Personally, I would tell the manager to get it sorted forthwith! Win against Gloucester, thus removing the threat of relegation from the Club, and you have until the end of the season and then your contract will be reassessed. Lose and you're out the door...and I don't expect you to take any pay-off either!

All evidence so far shows what a total sycophant and puppet you are aaarreeighggh     Highly unlikely you will be offered respect by long standing supporters based on the sneaky, underhand way you started messing around on here. Frankly my dear fellow you are a disgrace. The same applies to GD because he will know what you've been doing and maybe even encouraging/proposing it. Totally amateurish in my view. In fact, Unbelievable  8)

Reason I stick up for the manager is exactly because he is the manager, as well as being a friend, and that friend cannot defend himself on here. It's exactly the same as you would cross the street to confront somebody foul-mouthing a friend who you know can't strike back . Read all of my posts and you will find that I have never once tried to disguise the fact that I support the manager, in fact I have gone out of my way to make it known that all my postings are coming from exactly from that angle, that I have never purported to be a fanatical BUFC supporter, only an intermittent follower, and that I have never ever resorted to personal abuse. Whether people respect me is totally irrelevant to me but I will always stick up for a friend who cannot defend him/herself with all I've got and if people think that is being underhand then so be it.

Forgot to add that I would also expect the Club to be involved in a decent Cup run i.e. FA Cup 1st Round proper, or similar Trophy run, plus the chance of some local silverware. I would also expect average home attendances to have improved to the 1000+ level. Anything less and, again, I would expect the manager to be shown the door.

Serious question BG! Do you think the thought of GD in charge next season may cause a drop in season tickets?

Depends on his pre-season record and the squad he assembles. If fans believe he has assembled a good side capable of challenging for promotion and cups then season tickets should actually rise 

argieh this response promps me to ask how many seasons have you attended BUFC games at YS and in this time how many games have you attended .?
Are you buying a season ticket next season .?

Happy to answer, ghm. About 13 seasons, 20-30 games and will probably just pay my £13 on the gate rather than buy a season ticket. Will also sponsor a player or two, maybe a match, plus will also buy a few bits and pieces from the commercial shop and some food/drink from the kiosk on matchdays. May not be the world's most fanatical BUFC attendee but it all helps I suppose 

 8) Unbelievable  8)

Not sure why, ghm, as surely BUFC is the main priority here and hopefully it will be here long after you and me are pushing up the daisies. Have stated quite openly before that I know GD and happen to think he is a very good manager, which means that people know exactly where I'm coming from with my posts and can judge them accordingly on that   8)

You just dont get Sir do you. I think its great that you chew the cud with GD and more that you are candid about your friendship, that is not the issue. the issue comes when regardless of evidence or circumstances you defend everything about him, what he does and what the team does andf do so at times with utter blindness and in a manner designed it would appear simply to stave of the less savoury side of our opinions

Perhaps you could take a leaf out of Jason Cundy's attitude. Whilst being paid by Chelsea on their TV channel he is also a regular pundit on Talk Sport, which at times is putting him and his views in an insidious position. But he juggles the two very carefully and at times by walking a very thin line between his respective responsibilities and allegiances.

Perhaps and it is but a suggestion, if you ever came on here and slated your mate or his decisions when they were deserved your stock, opinionsand or credability would rise accordingly. Not everything we do is perfect, not everything our mates do is perfect, but a really good mate would should be allowed to tell him that, instead of trying to defend the at times undefendable. I am sure Drury would understand. If he is as honest as some suggest, he would probably agree!

Agree entirely with that post. If results haven't improved and BUFC is not in with a chance of promotion to the Conference next season then the manager should leave. That stands for any manager, GD included.

That's okay then!  8) Unbelievable  8)

From your posts you're pretty obviously BUFC through-and-through with the Club's wellbeing at heart, Mlf. Certainly give you respect and admiration for that, Mlf, but sarcasm certainly doesn't become you. Just gonna concentrate on the football from now on

Me too.    However, not on the basis of shite from a band of GD brothers purporting a long and knowledgeable following of the club that  I've supported good and bad for decades, come tick and thin. These newbies ought to give a little respect, not chase the divide and conquer mentality we've seen in the past.  8)

Dividing and conquering? If you really do believe that drivel, Mlf, then I really do despair. I respect that you've been a supporter of BUFC through thick and thin, good times and bad, but  your accusations of subtefuge are well wide of the mark!

BUFC may not be the highest payers in the BSN but what they have got, and which money cannot buy, is a crowd. If that crowd really does get passionately behind the team, makes some noise similar to the Corby away game, then I'm sure the players would respond with a rip-roaring display...and also three important points! 

Well you would know!  8) Unbelievable   8)

Incredible generosity from the Chairman of GT, especially as his health has been an issue
