After we lost at Stevenage last season, I was upset with Jones and it felt the players weren't playing for him and he was picking the wrong side. I suggested in a post maybe he had lost the dressing room. I was out of order doing that but at least I learned my lesson. I know a little about football which is a dangerous thing, I don't get Jones but I see what he has done and I am incredibly grateful to him. I'm not going to question him again.

Nothing wrong with questioning him, it’s down to him to prove us wrong if we have doubts, for me I’ve stood firm and been 100% with him, but that’s not to say I’ve wondered what the fuck he’s doing at times, I’ve just felt we’ve had too many changes over the years and the stability is reaping rewards.

I completely agree with this. Nathan’s behaviour on the sidelines has often annoyed me, to be honest. Still, I’ve backed him because I didn’t think changing the manager again was the right move and at the time stability felt more important than pushing for promotion from League One at that point.

I never expected him to get us promoted last season after our rough patch. And keeping us up this term with at least 53 points is a really strong achievement in my view. We had some ups but also downs along the way, bumpy ride and never was going to be easy in such a strong league.

I didn’t understand his team selection last Saturday as well, but happy to be proven wrong again like a few times over the past couple of years.

I trust him to keep us up next season as well, although second season in the Champ might even tougher looking at our squad. I do really hope that we can move away a bit from the direct and defensive style we (had to) adopted over the past few months. Yes we got some results but I don't see it as sustainable.
