I actually admire their honesty, don’t think anyone who posts on here isn’t a genuine fan, if cc and the board take offence then do something about it.

Sadly for some reason they seem to be tinkering around the edges , personally if I was Chris Chester and had an ounce of pride I would have resigned 2-3 months ago.

So when players improve its their own work but when players don't improve its Chester's fault?
TJ has said in interviews that he's improved under both Smith and Chester.

He had some real flaws in his game when he started in taking high balls and defense.
He's plugged a lot of those gaps.

Returning the ball is a standard part of a wingers job now. Show me another team who doesn't do it.

I don't think it's fair to expect him to walk away from however many thousands a year. I wouldn't unless my health was suffering and I suggest most people wouldn't in the same position.

Selective points there PT. If you feel that Chester is in anyway getting the best out of Johnstone that's your opinion. I just don't share it

All we seem to read on here is Chester this and Chester that or Carter this and Carter that. The point is 18 points up in first quarter and then to lose the only guys that lost that game were the ones on the park. The second half was abysmal and that was down to the players like it or not.

The way I’m feeling about trinity,Chester and mc they might as well dig bv up and put spuds in it . Absolute rubbish

Well, for all the money spent and team on a winning run, Huddersfield fans are hardly turning up in droves to watch them 3,760, I think was the announcement, and 500 of those were from Trinity. . Yes, at every club the crowds are down, people have now got out of the habit of match day. Our crowds will be well down on average this year, it’s alright people on here complaining about lack of quality players, when those very people are withdrawing their support and ticket funding. Get behind the club, Remember, Use it or Lose it.

So you're saying then that all these defeats and poor performances are solely down to the players? The coach doesn't take any blame over the last 50 odd games?! Obviously he doesn't tell them to knock-on in the 18th minute, give a penalty away for high shot in the 24th, etc, etc, we all know that, and yes the players do have to perform better, and act as things unfold before them, but by your reckoning, the role of a coach is redundant then?! What does he actually say to them at half-time, because it clearly doesn't work does it given how many times we lose games that we are well in at between 40 and 60 minutes? If he takes no responsibility at all, then have no coach! Get rid, use the money to buy 2 or 3 players in key positions, let the senior players take over training drills, come up with a game plan by watching the opposition, like they do anyway with the coach present I presume? Then if they still perform poorly, lose most weeks, then we'll know it wasn't the coach to blame won't we?? I may have to edit the bit about the coach coming up with a game plan actually.......

Well I gave up two fairly big jobs over a matter of principle and resigned despite wife mortgage kids etc

Think if you have integrity and principles they are more important than the next pay check . I know it’s unfashionable but once upon a time integrity was something that was important.

-----That bit is uneccessary edited PT.

But you can understand why he wouldn't necessarily see it like that? He's not doing anything wrong or malicious is he he's just doing something to a poor standard, in our opinion.

Yes I do understand that his priority is his livelihood . But the criticism he’s receiving must be having a negative impact on both him and his family.

Ultimately the team manager has to take responsibility for the teams performances - on Sunday we pretty much had the team he selected / wanted on the field made of players he’s either signed or re signed during his tenure.

Whilst it’s possible to criticise individual players ultimately the coach recruits trains selects and devises the game plan.

So ultimately it’s the coach who’s responsible and don’t see how anyone could blame anyone other than Chris . Unless you want to criticise the board for not biting the bullet.

Any way he’s resigned

I agree with all that.

Sacked rather than resigned but the end outcome is the same.
