Jays interview spot on. Still think he is the man total honesty following supporting his players at other times as good managers should, his frustration and disappoinment is fully evident and I'm sure he feels it every bit as much as we as fans/supporters do. He has finally run out of patience it seems having previously showed great faith. I think the team lacks the grit and determination when up against it. Cant dispute some individual talent but too many go missing in games Whilst I have sympathy with Jay regarding players that don't perform, he did sign the players, pick the team and decided the tactics! If he didn't tell them to hoof the ball to Atwood at Harris in a gale force wind at head height then why didn't he do something about it? This young manager still learning, is all very well, as long as he does learn! I cant see where we are any further forward from 2 years ago when we blew the south division after being in a similar position before the wheels came off! Having said that I'd thought we were a tad unlucky with the run of the ball last night

I think that plans are being made now for next season. This was our 1st season back in the Ryman Prem, and at the start we would have ben happy just to survive. But having said that we must learn from the errors made, the main one being who we sign!!, making sure that we sign players with a track record off not missing 2/3rds of a season.. Yes I know that you cannot account for the odd serious injury. But our injury problems started almost from the start of the season. If supposedly as we are told that players are wanting to join our club, then we need to be more selective in who we sign.. The main problem this season has been our central defence, who are too slow,and get turned too easily.. Now that Rooney has gone, we need someone to play that role, a playmaker who wants the ball and can distribute it and scare the shit out of defenders when he runs at them. Phillips although popular is not in the same class..

Roy Keane is not a nice guy and I dont remember him.having much success as a manager! Too many on here think change the manager and we will win the league well frankly your deluded. A manager has to know who responds to a kick up the arse and who responds to encouragement when things go wrong. Jay deserves another crack at it and Im sure is keenly aware of the ambition of the club and that he will be expected to deliver next season. Id suggest you ask Ipswich fans if changing a manager who just misses out on a playoff spot has worked for them. Its no guaranteed instant fix

Isn't Jay doing exactly what has been asked of him? ie pushing for a play off place

Having been there again last night and at the three L's away + Harrow to name just a few I ask do the players in each of theses teams get paid as much as our players I wouldn't of thought so ! yet they played like they wanted to win more than our team.

So passion and desire is linked directly to wages??
The two do not go hand in hand and the fact is a Manager who is constantly publicly knocking his team will lose the dressing room
Jay has done what he should and has now correctly in my opinion said enough us enough. I'm glad he took a little time to come to this descision as it is not Knee jerk and is a solid sensible wise and mature approach. Far more in fact than some of many more years on here.
Some would go through 4 managers a season thank christ you dont run the club.
Have you managerial experience?

Jay is not a bad manager but he certainly is not a good one .Anyone there last night can see that the second half was just as bad as the first like so many games recently it's obvious he can't get the right reaction
A little too close to the players for my liking and now can't take control of situation.
We are a team that can't battle when needed.

I think if we finish in the top 5 its been a bloody good season, I would have been happy with top 10 at the start of the season, it took afc wimbledon 3 attempts to get out of ryman premier division, its a hard league. If its not success this year its not a failure, im sure we will be in the mix next season if it doesnt happen this season, COYS

Currently top 5 the season after promotion, likely to finish in the top 6 or 7 at worst and you're constantly demanding a change of manager. I might well turn the question round and ask what you're on. Get real. All managers at this level have limitations, that"s why they're at this level. Given time and experience he will learn his trade, but only if the club doesn't give in to idiotic demands to sack him.
