Whinge whinge whinge….

I remember that but just because we were worst then doesn't mean we have to accept mediocrity now

Burnley also had to apply for re election and actually stayed in the football league on the last day of the season

You can't stand still in football and the negative attitude that you and many others show is actually part of the problem
I don't think its me what's being negative , just because I accept losses better then others and don't react over the top . That's not being negative . Its those who think their glass is half empty and kick off about a loss who are being negative.

but it's more than one loss isn't it? And it's not just about losing. I think most would accept a loss if the level of performance was decent but too many times this season our losses are because of rank bad performances. You might be happy with that but many aren't. Some people are just content with mediocrity and even worse and are content with being a very average mid table L1 team. Fans with ambitions aren't.

We're all ambitious. You're expectant.
 
As I don't go to matches anymore I have refrained from criticising the manager or players . However. I have seen enough matches on TV and read reports on here and realise something has to change. Fans paying good money to go home and away are entitled to "whinge " if that's what it is.
I notice the CEO praises David Downes and the recruitment team. Let's see what they come up with this January

I am ambitious as the next , and i have seen some great performances this season , so what we have is inconsistency nothing more . I believe that Critch is at fault for this , but the way some people have turned on players and the owner and moaned about games we lose is pointless and ridiculous.

agree with some of that in that a lot of the blame is down to Critchley. As for players and turning on them, well we all have players we rate and players we don't rate. Remember Josh Bowler? I've no problem with our owner either. And it's not just about losing games really is it? It's to do with terrible performance. It's bad perfromances that more often than not causes you to lose games. And so yep, fans have every right to moan about them.

And you are right about fans have every right to moan about players ,all I said is that it will do no good . Maybe make them play worse if they read some of these posts. I still maintain its Critch who is the problem in my eyes. What works at home games is not working away and he is the man to do something about it. We get time to knock it about at the back at home ,because teams are more defensive ,giving us more time at the back ,but away, teams are trying to win games ,so they don't give us as much time and space ,this leads to poorer passing and even losing possession on the ball.
 
Well you wouldn't know about anything else Brewster as you don't go to games
Says the man who has managed nine (or so) so far this season - I don’t think I am that far behind that (and I live in Asia) and I have watched every game apart from that.

So please stop talking drivel.

What's the thread about? Haven't a clue. Happy New year all.
 
There’s a lot of false comfort being had out of us being 8th and that our home form will continue. Bristol have two games in hand on us and only two points behind, and both Stevenage and Oxford are more than two wins ahead of us both with two games in hand. Barnsley are two points ahead of is in seventh and also have two games in hand.

So we are over performing at home and still absolutely nowhere in reality. Bottom half of the table if our home form tails off and our away form only moderately improves. Which is very poor when we were told there was only one possible selection of manager from Sadlers supercomputer.
I'm pretty sure when we beat Bristol last week plenty were saying, it's only Bristol, they're crap.

Can't work both ways.

i'm pretty sure they weren't. Bristol Rovers came to us off the back of a good win at Bolton and most on here were pretty impressed with them. So hardly crap. Lincoln come here in terrible form so lets hope we are saying they are crap at 5 pm.

Bristol looked a very good footballing side. They came to play and hence plan A worked.
