the people of accrington will not come and watch the dross that asfc are playing at the moment,perhaps it is time for EW to wield the axe,remember stan allen,he was sacked after 3 games at the start off 1 uni- bond season and he won the 1st two and drew the 3rd,the buck stops with the manager,john coleman is the football league and prem,s 3rd longest serving manager with now 8 years.perhaps this is were the problem lies,has he taken asfc as far as he can,and please dont anyone go on about he is the best manager asfc had,thats all in the past,yes he has taken asfc from non-league to the football league but lets face it we were lucky to stay up last season,and its the present that matters and the only place asfc are going is back to the conference and lets be honest,thats where most of the 1st team deserve to be,
i am not saying that a new manager can change things overnight but at the moment unless drastic steps are taken then asfc are going nowhere fast,i have admired john coleman but perhaps he is out of his depth,and his stubborness and lack of communication skills will be his downfall,asfc have sacked managers before and moved on,perhaps its time for john coleman and jimmy bell to move on.

I agree with some of your views but I don't think it is time for John or Jimmy to leave just yet. They kept us up last year and I believe that they will do the same this year. Yes we did have some luck but you make your own luck in this game and there was some great perfomances towards the end of last season.
Having said that I would like to know what exactly Coleman does with the players during the week. We make the same errors week in week out and delay making the passes which will open the opposition up. Its the same every week.
Its early days and as previously mentioned we have had some very difficult fixtures to begin the season. You can't say we are going to go back to the conference yet as we haven't played 'lesser' teams. Only then will we have an idea where we are going to finish and thats all that matters-where we finish in May as the table means nothing yet.
He hasn't lost the dressing room but the club is going through a bad patch:therefore we must get behind the management and players. We have come a long way in a short time and I think some people are
expecting too much too soon.
