Or the theatre. Or poetry reading. It's the working man's game, and the working man does not pussy foot around. It's a "passionate" game. And an "escape." And a chance to "let off steam." Would you mind holding onto your strong feelings until the performers and my little friend are out of earshot? Thank you kindly. This is not the game you and me grew up with, Cynic. SL has got a bloody cheek because I don't recall him taking the time to thank or praise the record season ticket sales (after a sh1te season last year), the biggest crowds for 37 years, and the remarkable restraint and tolerance of a crowd that has kept attending through a club record breaking run of consecutive defeats, and 13 defeats in 17 games. Not a ****ing word! (Not that I recall. I apologise if he has). He should be apologising for an abysmal season, not handing out a ticking off. How does he explain those 8 consecutive defeats weeks ago - was that the crowd too? Utter sh1te, mate. In my humble opinion. You should see the reaction at La Scala when the audience think they've seen a sub-standard performance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesBCFC Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 1 hour ago, Jack Dawe said: Do you think the "negativity" of the fans last Wednesday evening is the primary reason for our fall from 5th to 21st? No, neither do I. So wtf was SL referring to something that only emerged way after a club record run of consecutive league defeats, weeks later when we had managed two league wins in four months? Not a word from SL about the start and middle of that run - when there was very little or no "negativity," and remarkable tolerance, frankly - only the, frankly, understandable release of frustration after such a poor run of results. Why so? Do you think he was addressing the heart of the matter? No, me neither. Do you think he was deflecting attention from his favoured but failing-to-deliver paid employee on to his poorly rewarded paying "customers"? Fair play to SL for the kind words back in September, though (when things were ticking over nicely), I apologise for over-looking that. It would be much better in future if he maintains something like a 5:1 ratio of positive words/critical words about his paying customers, and maybe keep any "negativity" he has about them for a time when his team and paid employees are not failing miserably to deliver. He hasn't blamed the fans for the downturn though, so stop twisting what has been said. Once you stop twisting what has been said in order to come up with some BS, I'll address the other points you might makes, but anything based on those twisted words just isn't worth the time to respond to. Oh and his "kind words" were when he came out amongst the backlash after the Kodjia sale, so not simply "when things were ticking over nicely".

Isn't it just a tiny bit odd though I would never dream of siging up to their forum for any reason You couldn`t even if you wanted to - they don`t allow gurt shitty teds on there and you`re banned inside a minute of them finding out you`re not `loyal and true`.

Newcastle were running away with the title, and Rovers were rock bottom. We drew 0-0 and Newcastle were booed off. The whole 'Geordie Nation' shit makes me cringe, they aren't any better (or worse) than the rest of us. BTW, after that game I ended up on the piss with an old manager of yours- but that's another story! Oh do tell. We've nowt better to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, before yesterday we hadn't scored a league goal away at the Geordies since 1977 but we lost 3-1 in the league cup up there in '95 - after losing the home leg 0-5 we only took the lead in the 2nd leg before bowing out 8-1 on aggregate!
