Genuinely, if it depresses you that much, why bother us with it?

Wow so miserable, it must be hard when you are so negative to the club you “support”. Thankfully I’m a glass half full, try it sometime, you will be happier for it.

It's quite easy when you aren't employed by them.

Dont worry there will be another one just like it, starting in a few months. Full of words of hope and little else, we need the engine driver to drive us on and not be content to sit in a layby with the engine just ticking over. Others pass us by on the road some going up and yes some going down, here we sit its what The Driver wants.

Very apt username.

Major clearout required for next season else it looks bleak to me.

Yeah. 

But not the players.

What people forget when they often state that there has been an improvement recently which has seen us equal last season is that improvement has come with Twine in the team. 

We had to make a financial outlay, which wouldn't have been cheap to equal last season. Marvellous. 

It does beg the question, why wasn't this outlay possible in the summer? Why are we looking to do it this summer? Why did we sacrifice our season by refusing to spend it in the summer? 

Or are we not allowed to ask these questions cos we should be happy with how things have panned out? 

We don't need to ask those questions. 

We all know why.

I'm saying it again because there is a topic of conversation around it following Jon's interview in which he described the season as "broadly positive" 

Deluded.

These 'people' just don't live in the real world.

Wouldn't discuss Pearson "I'm not going over old ground "

I wish he would go over a ****ing cliff, quite frankly.

I found that comment strange plus mentioning when we last had a go before Covid.

Under the last 'project'. 

They never 'have a go' under someone that has 'had a go and done it".

Clowns.

I've not just chucked any criticism, I've pointed out his poor communication skills for somebody in a senior position. Those skills can be learned.

The soft skills required of the Chairman of a business are generic in the sense that you need them whatever business you are in. It seems reasonable to expect our Chairman to improve on those skills.

 

But he's a phony chairman. 

Don't need skills if Daddy owns the place.

Particularly if Daddy doesn't have them either.

Prepare to be surprised. We just need someone to leak that Rangers are preparing a £2.5M bid, that gets Celtic involved. Lower ranking EPL clubs then sh1t themselves and someone ends up bidding £5M, and get a bargain.

Conway is worth £10m all day long imo. 

Wrong set up for him at the moment. 

Nonetheless , I would rather have him for another season and him go for nothing than accept less.

After all, we have a ****ing nest egg to fall back on.

Great time to do the interview after the run of results.

Can’t be bothered to listen to it so could someone please confirm if JL put on record an apology to Pearson for the way the situation was handled and his thanks for the work he done for this club?

I haven't listened either. 

But I can still confirm that he didn't.

Just now, Kingswood Robin said:

At the very end he talks about - getting ourselves in the best position so we can push when the times right.

Does anybody know what that means?

No. I don't. 

But I do think that we WERE in the best position in the autumn.

That’s your opinion and I respect it. It’s not mine. 
 

Really looking forward to next season so not gonna get dragged into negativity.

COYRs 

Fair enough. 

I wish I had your optimism. 

For the avoidance of doubt, I really do.

Wasn’t that I was “facepalming” as that is clearly obvious. It’s this ridiculous statement > “The lies etc from the likes of JL has fractured the fanbase. It's not just me.”

I hope that’s cleared it. Up. As you were. 

But it's not ridiculous. 

And it is not just him.

FFS, just heard the snippet 

Jon - “I want them to understand what we are trying to achieve and how, so that we aren’t setting expectations too high” 

6 months ago….

“Promotion is the aim this season”

”best squad we’ve had at this level”

It’s just so hard to take it seriously when it can be pulled apart so easily

Utterly ****ing despicable.

I hope you're lobbying for getting our highlights pushed up the roster next season. We seemed to be on last again last night.

Really grates with me, that. 

Although to be fair, yesterday's fixture was probably worthy of being last.

Simply out of interest I always check the head to head record against every opposition and I swear we never win any 

Well we won at their place.

Any praise has been through gritted teeth and always with caveats, he has said he will admit he was wrong if we carry on our form, but again I feel he will be looking for the slightest dip in form or results to revert to type, he has been almost non-stop moaning since manning started, and in my eyes at least has been myopic. 

Conjecture on your part, to be fair.

He doesn't rate Manning. Nor do I. But I will be happy to be proved wrong. 

The reason that I won't give the club another penny of my money is the people that own it. 

My problem lies with three people above Manning. 

I think he is the same tbh.

Lansdown plumped for Holden. Not Ashton. 

You have more chance of sprouting a second head than Lansdown appointing anyone of that calibre.

I really am falling more out of love with football every week.
