As crowds are higher than they were under the previous management, and in fact currently higher than last season, where are we getting an extra 2000/3000 fans from?
You clearly have too high expectations.
Too expensive to sack JC just now IMHO and I don't know who we would replace him with at the moment who would be willing to come, or we could afford.
The last 4.5 years have been far better than what's gone before for a long time. That said, it may still be time for a change of manager but not quite yet for me anyway.
