@Super_Danny_Allsopp    @notts-joe I'm not just interested in JF and the more I know and learn about Notts , the more I see what a great club it is ...but the whole surroundings of this appointment and reactions , particularly around this issue, are quite depressing. I look forward to Saturday but feel that the manager may need a suit of armour on and that can't be good.

Its just really a huge feeling of sadness today and I genuinely feel that Aborah has let him down and now , bizarrely, is coming out smelling of roses...but thats the way things have gone for JF.

I've never defended performances and have stated he would benefit from media guidance but he's had a hell of a lot to deal with, some of which he is dong for the first time (media), in a very short space of time at Notts...much more than most managers get in much longer careers.

So to answer your question..will I still follow Notts? definitely ...but will I be gutted if this all ends without both sides progressing and getting some positivity from it?  absolutely

Notts is in your blood, not something you learn about, that's why Danny A shows passion and cares about what's going on at our great club! 

@wacky so you can learn nothing about a club and only get what's in your blood ? Yeah thanks for that .. Helpful

Where has your sudden interest in Notts come from? Forest or stags fan looking to stir things up

I agree that he walked into a complete nightmare for a first manager. That was out of his control. 

Good to see you will still follow Notts after JF. Unfortunately, the only way I can see this situation improving is by NCFC and JF parting ways. 

You're forgetting that the orchestrator in most of this GB needs to do one also

I will tell you what I find depressing. I’m depressed that this great club of ours has been torn apart in just a few weeks by fans, players, management and owners, all because of the appointment of a man that should not have been given the job in the first place. I had nothing against JF personally when he joined, but he has been given no public support by anyone at the club (until recently), has not covered himself in glory with the putrid football we are now playing and has not been able to handle the media in any way.

With Stanley  having his say, all anti JF supporters now have a heightened grievance against him and he has no way back from this, his time is effectively over. Without the fans, the club dies, it is in everyone’s interest that the club is sold as soon as possible so we can move on.

Sums it up nicely

What a sad, sad story this is.  It has more mystery than an Agatha Christie thriller and even a judge and jury would struggle to return any sort of majority verdict.  It all boils down to who said what at what specific time, and we'll never know for sure.  What we do know is that it has been badly handled by all parties.  The worst thing is that Fullarton, Aborah, the club and most importantly the fans all end up as losers.

Another day in the life of a Notts fan!

How can it ever get this bad, most fans hate the manager and the best player hasn't played, the owners are selling up and guy branston could be influencing JF in my opinion, what we do know is that the club is in a right state

Wonder what the spirits like on the training field? Must be a fun place to be at the moment. 

There is no way back for JF, whether you support him or don't, I can't see a scenario that he would win the fans onside. Even a run on 5 wins in a row would be a staller, as soon as the form dipped fans would voice their displeasure. 

I think pretty much everyone can see this, apart from the arrogant people at the top who refuse to accept any kind of responsibility what-so-ever and will deflect blame to anyone but themselves. We will continue down this path until the people at the top finally bend, or get out of the club. 

Fullarton is in the wrong place at the wrong time.  Even a combination of Sirrel, Warnock, and Allardyce at their best would struggle to get out of this hole, so with respect Jamie you don't have a cat in hells chance.  It's not a pleasant sight seeing someone ridiculed in front of thousands of people, but the 3 home games have been so dire it's both understandable and inevitable.  This can only get worse, so for his own sake Fullarton should resign.  His life can't be very pleasant at the moment, so he should put this fiasco down to experience and move on to his next challenge.  He's made a decent career in the game since injury ended his playing days, so he must have some qualities.  Unfortunately for us, being a manager isn't one of them.

I fear that we are going to get a pasting from Bristol Rovers and its just going to boil over. It needs the egos at the top to step back, realise that in league two the primary income is the fans and to realise we are leaving in droves. This is no longer a Stanley v Fullarton battle, its fans v board battle with these two being the pawns

I think that Sirrel, Warnock and Allardyce wouldn't have got into this mess in the first place, but if they had, they would have told us how it is a damn site quicker.
