Yeah , we’ve had potential for 130 years near enough . Means nothing

Not really . They’ve won the prem & FA cup in the last ten years , it’s all relative . They should never of got relegated with the squad they had. They were pissing the league a few weeks ago & now could be heading for the play offs & the knock on from that if they don’t go up

To be fair. The vast majority would have been happy for nige to get another three years to keep building , so I don’t think fans in general want to chop & change . It’s good to have stability. Unfortunately for manning , he’s come to a club with a largely pissed off fanbase & he’s hardly hit the ground running. Plus the ridiculous statements from the club did nothing but heap undue pressure on him.

It was nice to see us be more direct & purposeful with our passing . We passed through them a lot more than recently . Ok sides will be more compact in midfield as we’ve seen with the recent defeats . The intent was there though , which has been missing .

Fanbase has little to do with it . Would you class Newcastle as big a club as Liverpool because they get similar sized crowds ?

It’s not living in the past though is it. Liverpool , Man Utd, Arsenal are massive because they’ve won dozens of trophy’s over decades . Therefore history defines them as huge clubs . If you lived in the past & took their trophy’s away they wouldn’t be as big as they are would they.

Ok that’s one club . At least they have a history of achievement

Yes. History defines a club . How can it not

They’ve won the title twice , runners up three times . European cup semi finalists & won the FA cup. Apart from that , yeah we’re a bigger club

Bubble , what bubble

Leicester yes. Soton were unbeaten in about 25 games. No doubt Leicester have been on a dodgy run. This is why I enjoy the wins obviously but would rather look at a run of games . Would anyone be surprised if we got done at Plymouth ?

At this point that worries me. Ok, he can set up against better sides all be it a small sample size so far . But have proved today and a sided from Hampshire who we beat that he can block off but also get after & show some attacking intent . The major worry is he hasn’t shown that against bottom half clubs. This win probably means he’s cemented his job for the summer. Again a big worry is the rumours that James & williams are going plus I really don’t trust tinnion to convince players good enough to come to us . Also ,what type of players are we after ? Are we going to set up negatively next season ? If it goes tits up by November then we got a reshaped squad & another new man coming in.

I agree but if they think one hammering might change things for the better long term then I can understand it

Nobody really wants us to lose do they . They & it was only one or two thought that a hiding might get him the sack. It’s not what I’d want to see but I can understand the logic, they want what’s best long term . I , like all of us want to be proved wrong on manning & tinnion & the lansdowns because it would mean a successful club. There’s no chance of that with the lansdowns imo . It could be said that if we return to type for the rest of the season then today papered the cracks & he’s had a stay of execution. Why not contribute with a proper post of your own on manning , tinnion etc instead of childish point scoring .

Young ref that was star struck . We should have had two pens . One on dickie & wells . Not sure about Tommy’s

Another one trying to provoke people . Pathetic.

I’m far from sensitive . Of course I enjoyed it. So if you’re the opposite of blindly following then you might have similar views to me . Why have a pop at people boycotting games. Instead of trying to bait people , just enjoy the win .

I did . Your’e a ******* idiot . Where has anyone said they despised (your words) manning & Mehmeti ?

I watched the game. If you’re happy to blindly follow the owners without question that’s fine . That’s your decision. I have my own mind & make my own decisions . We played well & I enjoyed the win . Play like that consistently & I might change my mind.

Congratulations on being smug From my point of view it’s against the owners & there poor decision making . Id never want the team to lose , ever. were you posting like this after the Cardiff, QPR, Sheffield Wednesday shit shows ?

Yet again you outdo yourself posting complete bollocks . Nobody despises anyone you clown. Many of us have quite rightly questioned mannings set up , tactics & tactical decisions or lack of during games. Mehmeti has been poor generally since he signed . I’ve accused him of not being intelligent enough . Where please tell is there any evidence of them being despised.

It wasn’t a shoulder barge (which is legal) it was clearly into his back 100% penalty

Init bruv

Hang on . I’m not sticking up for anyone here and yes vardy had some great chances . We had some very good ones first half & could easily of had a couple of pens .

Credit where it’s due . Well played lads & well set up today. As others have said , it needs to be backed up now
