Why does the Chairman not come out,highlight that he is listening to the valuable supporters and then propose a plan to deal with the doom and gloom hanging over Caley stadium. Tell us why the communication which he started his tenure triumphing, has dropped to next to zero. Tell us why there are not proper parking facilities around the club and why the catering is a bit of a 'hit or a miss' and then tell us why he thinks the team have imploded. Is there a reason that we, the loyal fans know nothing about. Is there a reason why some of the players don't have desire and drive to play and maybe tell us what goes on at training,because whatever they are doing makes no difference week in and week out. Finally, can he no tell us if he is concerned that as a club we are all disconnected and not looking or acting professionally and explain why we should have to put up wth much more of this.

I’d be surprised if there is a performance clause and, even if there is, it would probably only be measured at the end of the season, so could not be enforced now (and he could point to us being in a play off place anyway). Six clubs in the Championship have changed their Manager this season, and they probably had similar contractual terms, so it comes down to the appetite of the Board. I’ve felt recently that the Board is currently happy with us being a mid table Championship club and they don’t have the ambition for us to go up, possibly as we can’t afford the required investment in players to make us competitive in the top flight. I don’t see anything changing in the short term. (But then the Board would probably not bother telling us anyway!).

and take Kellacher also unless its the entire coaching staff clear out nothing will change

The reason why John Robertson is there is that the club took a compassionate attitude to his mental health issues and found him a lower profile and less stressful role within the club. Whilst I have many criticisms of the clubs actions in recent times, I personally think that was the right and proper thing to do.

Sounds like a few rockets directed up some rear ends is needed - all in all some very depressing reading and I really don't think BD has the capability to light the necessary touch paper.

The club seriously need to look at the impact that SG and JR are having. I fully believe there roles are not having a Positive impact. I see it as expenditure a Championship outfit don't require. Surely the club learned from the Foran contractual situation? I was hoping that Dodds would of walked today as the club clearly don't have the finances to sack him. Maybe the club have ambitions to go part time like Arbroath.

The stadium is barely a quarter full.Could you imagine Hearts or Aberdeen playing to 5000 home fans and the board burying their head in the sand thinking all is ok. For to long the supporters have been taken for granted, ***** catering ,flooded carparks, terrible stewarding, non existent communications, the list is endless. The place is just soul destroying at the moment. Things have to change or more fans will just drift away.

Nobody was complaining about structures and roles when we were top of the league. What’s more relevant is what’s gone so horribly wrong in the dressing room and dugout since then.

Just dire. I'd give Ross Tokely a go - can't be any worse than Dodds!

What’s this based on? I’d argue without some very key business deals Scott Gardner handled we wouldn’t have a club to support.

I still wish Neil McCann had taken the job when offered, had us playing great football but we need to do something soon, every week is getting worse.

Surely the club must be concerned with what's happening? Attendances have fallen dramatically, the football is boring to watch, and results are dire. Feels like we're in freefall! Yesterday on entering the ground I even witnessed one fan being stopped by a steward and asked to open his jacket for a security check. This wasn't a youngster but a senior fan, and in freezing cold weather! Wtf is going on at the club. They'll have no fans left at this rate!

I've been complaining about people's roles, responsibilities and communication since I contacted the club on October the 28th 2020 and still await any kind of acknowledgement or reply.

Has the chairman come out yet to say that he has full confidence in the manager? Well if not Dodds is staying. In a perfect world, we need a whole new coaching team, some new ideas, everything is so stale. It's the way we lose games that's not acceptable, if you go down fighting and giving everything, you can say we were unlucky, but it's the nature of the performance that's disturbing. And as I have said before, the disconnect between the club and supporters is widening by the week.

I wouldn't want Robertson taking over again. To be honest I've no idea why we need to have Robertson and Scott Gardiner at the club. What do they both do? If they identify signings and neither could see we were in desperate need of defenders in January then I don't have much confidence in them. We must have one of the most unbalanced squads in the league.

I’m not one for calling for Managers’ heads, but if we are looking for a new Manager at some point in the near future, Tokely supported by Tremarco is worth considering. Whether we keep any of the current back room staff should be the Manager’s decision. Tokely is already with us as a youth coach.

How about Ross Tokely ... a wee bit out of left field but ... has management/coaching experience, has the club close to his heart and always talks intelligently and passionately in commentary.

Seem to have plenty of spare capital to run a underperforming and bloated management team,while also having the luxury of a Director of Football on board ( salaried or not, I have no idea).

' perfectly Good ' That's debatable! He's in the stand for a reason. New blood needed soon.

So the funds brought in for Daniel Mackay and the sell on for Christie going to Bournemouth have been squandered then, usual story.

Weren't we nearly crippled before by paying up the contracts of Foran and Hughes, so how would that work with getting rid of Dodds? Does it still take a pay off if he resigns? What about Tremarco? I see him on the County bench during the Premier league games, he must be gaining some good experience. I don't know who we can get, but things need to change.

Time for a change of full coaching team.

I'd take a rookie looking to get into management, such as Scott Brown or Stevie Naismith (though it won't be either of these) with an experienced assistant such as Donald Park (is he still involved in the game?). Anyway, our chairman knows our feelings because I've just messaged him on messenger demanding action and answers so hopefully he acts soon.

Tokely nailed it on comms; no workrate, no heart, no desire.

It would be a mistake to say that our season is falling apart. It actually fell apart weeks ago with a few poor results by our opponents papering over the cracks which have now become crevices. Our coaching staff are clueless and have no idea how to arrest the decline. We might just pip Partick or Raith Rovers for the final play off place if we are lucky but have no prospect of progressing through the play offs on current form. Time to turn our minds to next season and, within our limited resources, have a serious think about what coaches and players we need for a proper sustained promotion push. Bitterly disappointing from where we were. Too late to save this season but it is patently obvious, even if it wasn't before, that root and branch change is required.
