bottom of Div Two, with just 21 points, have taken the decision to switch comments off the club\u2019s social media accounts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">In a statement, coach Adam Hollioake said: \u201cThis has not been a decision that we\u2019ve taken lightly and we are in no means stopping people voicing their opinions, but to align with our short-term strategy to allow players and staff to think and play with freedom and clarity, we feel it is a necessary one\u2026<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cThere are several ways for supporters to get their views across. There is a member\u2019s forum \u2026on day one of this match and anyone can also contact the club with their feedback at any time\u2026.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cYou are measured as a person by how you act and apply yourself when times are hard and I\u2019d like to think that our members and supporters will be willing us to do well more than ever.
