So people are up in arms about him not applauding the fans today. I know he's shit but is that a reason to want him out? Or is this a new thing?
Can’t really blame him thenThe same fans ( or a section of ) that were chanting ‘Sacked in the morning’ ?
Well said MichelleA lot of fans on here need to grow up if they’re really that bothered about a manager not clapping away fans who were chanting for him to be sacked. Pretty pathetic really
Comes down to leadership for me.A lot of fans on here need to grow up if they’re really that bothered about a manager not clapping away fans who were chanting for him to be sacked. Pretty pathetic really
He should never been appointed worst decision saddler as made,Blackpool fan ? I beg to differStill want the ** out of my club
I’ll add that the shit show at Peterborough last game of the season was a disgrace and the team selection that day was unbelievable, but even though we got tubbed 5 nil that could easily have been 9 nil we still chanted and applauded Critch and the team at the end! How things have changedComes down to leadership for me.
He’s shown us sod all really up to this point, and whilst he’s been served a bad hand the results have been terrible so in a position of leadership he has to take that on his back, front it out and bring us all along with him. He’s in a top job in the footballing world and is remunerated for it for times like this. Again, he’s shown zero characteristics in this area. A major gap when you consider there are only 92 of these jobs in the country probably about 50 really top ones.
Those fans travelled an 8 hour round trip, to watch a game they knew would be low on action or quality spent hundreds of pounds when the cost of living is crippling many. All because they love the club.
Fans will always be irrational in some of their outburst but people such as chairmen, captains, veteran players and most importantly the manager need to lead the club, the team and the fans.
He’s shown scant care for the fans.
Quitch gets derided for a lot of things most deserved for the way he left. But why were we all so hurt by that because we all generally loved him and appreciated greatly what he’d done for us.
I remember WBA away last year, heart breaking last minute loss. The 800 or so travelling fans stood and sang the team and Critchey ( by name ) off the pitch for 10/15 minutes. The bond was incredible tbh.
This is shite.
But he should be .... end ofThe same fans ( or a section of ) that were chanting ‘Sacked in the morning’ ?
Billy Ayre man!!Can’t remember managers clapping fans in the past.
Spot on MBH,A lot of fans on here need to grow up if they’re really that bothered about a manager not clapping away fans who were chanting for him to be sacked. Pretty pathetic really
They gave for the last 30 years or so.Can’t remember managers clapping fans in the past.
Well why is he still here?He is dead man walking... he knows it.. we know it. But then again he is that up his own arse he probably doesn't care
That's not exactly brilliant man management though, making them go over achieves nothing, you'd quietly take note of who didn't go over, seems a bit of a performance for the camera.This is what I would like to see as a supporter of a club class from this guy.

We'll see ehLets be honest. He's not got a chance of lasting till the end of the season.
That’s a long read. However, I agree with it all. There’s so much truth in it that the MA out numpties could never understandSpot on MBH,
I might stop at a Blackpool hotel and drive all the way back to Cardiff. If it takes 4 hours - Blackpool was great. If I left my phone charger and the M6 was snarled and it took me 7 hours then Blackpool would be shite.
The club is going through incremental change and a rebuild. As the Italian fans at the World Cup would have mentioned, Rome wasn't built in a day (but a similar number of Jewish slaves died in the building as have in Qatar).
Appleton is, and ever was his own person, I suspect Paul Scholes loved Appleton being around to make him look a great social creature.
This season is bonkers because of the WC and the longer outwash of financials for the hospitality industry (as football at Championship level is). Look at 'Udders plight and the number of 'choice spend' businesses that are clinging on. There are 'other things going on in the world too.' Players were/ are knackered because of the compression of the season. Fans are having to choose between basic choices. Cardiff away before Christmas would have been an 'in the diary' match last August for me but the financial fuck-up that the world is impacts on everyone so I didn't go. The Championship is a thrash and work league this year. We deserved to beat Scumley and T'Blades, yet they top the league.
I'm not defending Appleton, nor am I saying he should go. However, those shaking a verbal rant at Sadler/Appleton; 'Sacked in the morning' - go give your head a wobble as you look in the mirror to congratulate yourself on a perfect life.

BollocksHe is dead man walking... he knows it.. we know it. But then again he is that up his own arse he probably doesn't care
I wish more people on here could understand the reality of the situation and stop these vendettas from so called supporters, excellent post.That’s a long read. However, I agree with it all. There’s so much truth in it that the MA out numpties could never understand
Please let us know how you you can make this statement or is do you know the tea lady at the club.He’s standoffish with the players and disconnected from the fans. Not a great platform for success really.
Respect is a 2 way street! Would you go over and clap someone when they are calling for you to lose your job? All this negativity is just damaging.Basically shows a complete lack of respect for people who have dug deep, paid good money and taken the time to watch his team.
To not even acknowledge that is woeful and I’d hope that Mansford or someone at the club reminds him of this.
Disagree about pricks, our fans have been brilliant in the past, especially when they’ve felt a connection with the manager etc, but are also human like any other set or fans when things are going badly. Some clubs are far worse and on managers backs after 1 defeat.I wouldn't clap our lot either bunch of self entitled pricks
You do realise we can’t buy a win? I’ll have £100 with anyone that with Appleton incharge we will not win 3 games on the bounce this season. He can bring in who ever he likes, we will not win 3 on the bounceI until he gets his own players in yes.
We’ve been competitive with the shite players we have so add some quality and the narrow defeats will turn to draws, draws will turn to wins.
The way this league is this year if we get three wins on the bounce and we’ll be back in the hunt for the playoffs.
