The season stopping did save Rowe from his job as it meant he couldn't lose anymore games.
But you were the one calling yourself an expert and tv producer etc..South Shield only asked you to check your facts

And no it didn’t as we were finally hitting form and the pieces were finally falling into the jigsaw..if you attended you may have seen..

I asked them if what Alex said was true and they said it wasn't. Funny though that Dave Tweeted them asking how many seats they have and they didn't respond. Wiki says they only have 250 although I guess that's out of date.

Beating Bradford and Farsley is hardly coming into form they were games we should have won. Indeed I said to people that I thought we should be picking up 6 points from those games.

I've just watched the play-off final on DVD just remind me were you there or were you still banned at that point? You say I don't support the team yet you have been banned from going to games twice because of your actions? What sort of fan does that make you that you bring the clubs name into disrepute?
Oh I wondered how long it was gonna be before you brought the past up..No I wasn’t there and Yes you’re right for a change,I was banned but still went to most away games and caused no hassle as the ban was only for “home” games. I could’ve gone but was told not to as it. could jeopardise me getting back and harm the club so I stayed in Gloucester.

We’ve all got a past and mines in the past...quite frankly I couldn’t give a toss what you think and I’m not in the minority...remind me of what you done last week when I was running my garden for 6 hours raising money for the club?

Whitehawk wasn't that long ago though was it? You were banned from going to games last season weren't you? 

I couldn't care less what The Votte said for the time they were slagging the club off all the time, but they thought they spoke on everyone's behalf. People will disagree with me and that's fine doesn't make me any less of a fan. I am allowed to be a critic about things if I want to be just as others were in previous years. I don't think Rowe is up to the job and Alex made a big error making him manger. That's my view and I stand by it until I see otherwise. It is the only thing I am critical about at the moment regarding the club. Yes I would rather have a grass pitch, but there we go. The ground is being built and whenever the next season starts I am sure we will be playing at Meadow Park.

So you expected to get the 6 points after the form we were in before Darran?I think you said it as you didn’t believe we would get them and it would give you another reason to yo hammer JR,backfired...
When things start going well you don’t post and when they don’t you can’t stop.
Try and look at the positives.

We should have beaten Bradford given how bad they were and we nearly blew that. Farsely's away form is garbage and again we nearly didn't win that. Kettering point wasn't too bad although it was a poor game on a bad pitch. I post at all times so not sure why you think I don't.
So when a team wins by 1 goal,you say they nearly didn’t win?thats being negative or maybe 
im wrong.
I actually think that the BA win helped JR understand what the club is about(judging by his celebrations with the away support)
Then after a month off( pre season during the season) we took another 4 points from 2 games.
Theres not been much to have cheered about in the last 20 years but the club is in a fantastic place at the moment with everyone on board, just sit back and enjoy it!

I have to say a few words about James Rowe, I was worried for quite some time that he was turning into Todd Story 2, even after the monkey off the back first victory we continued to struggle.

However, the last few games before lockdown convinced me that this was a good appointment. It wasn't so much that we had won, just the feeling that a very patient turn around in the club was now bearing fruit. Key players being brought into key positions, with a clear strategy rather than panic.

With on the pitch sorted for this season, the icing on the cake is what I am hearing about off the field. As a full time manager he is setting up projects left right and centre that will help re-establish City in the minds of local people, especially the yewt. All this is timed to coincide with us coming back to MP, but also to keeping building the profile when we are back. We have to rebuild the club roots if we want to kick on in the future and thrive, rather than simply just exist.

While we are in exile I am just happy for us to exist at our current playing level, but when we come back we have to kick on and give something for the fans to hope for, and attract the newbies. I feel we are lucky that in James Rowe we have a manager blessed with both footballing and business acumen, whatever acumen is

Agree Shandy - nice entry from him on social media to us all as well.
