Hearing that he supporters Club have not enough takers to make running a coach to Morecambe viable next week.

That being the case how many do you think we will muster bearing in mind the same night England play France.

Tonights embarassment made up my boys mind not to go.I think you'd have to be slightly mad to make that trip on a worknight given the likely outcome.I reckon maybe only 25 are mad enough to do it.

I think that's probably going to be around the mark, not sure what the limit is to run the coach but wouldn't surprise if this could be the lowest turn out for a long time, I usually 'pull out the stops' to venture but I just cant be 'arsed', think as much as I hate the way the F.A Cup has been destroyed since things like Champions League etc has been formatted that and the other two minnow cup competitions is the last thing D and R need this season, Emphasis IS and should be 100% on getting out of the worst situation I've ever known this club in, just can't believe for some reason why the players especially on paper for this level which don't look a bad set-up are not giving it all and I know it's awfully hard but we all somehow must stick together on this. Just before Rhys and Zav got injured mid season last term I had really had hopes for the future of this club, looking so promising from what I was seeing a team even when conceding had bottle for a fight and nearly everyone was pulling too. Remember Scunny!

That reason is that the manager cannot motivate league two footballers.

Motivating what you have got is part of a manager's role.

There is no way Wayne Burnett can honestly say he is currently getting the best out of the squad that he has assembled.

How many will go on 1st Dec if nothing has changed by then???

Doubt you will get more than 20 for both.
