Wishful thinking there, but I doubt it will be forgotten, merely put to one side until the next time we draw with lower opposition.

It is the same handful of posters repeating the same thing ad nauseum on different threads. I have no problem with people expressing their views-just as long as my view that the criticisms since Sunday have been completely disproportionate to the events which took place is given the same respect. With a few notable exceptions all I've read is rehashed criticism about defensive play (none of which is backed up by the facts regarding team selection and the way we approached the game including corners in double figures and I think I read 18 attempts on target) and Paul Hurst's man-management skills (like anyone on here-including me- has a clue what goes on in the dressing room/on the training pitch),often from people who clearly were nowhere near B.P. on Sunday afternoon. No-one has seen fit to answer my criticism that there has been so much fuss because we were beaten by Lincoln-a defeat that some appear to believe is unthinkable. I can assure you it isn't just the Hurst critics who get frustrated.
So you have a moan at the moaners but then expect your views to be given some respect. As regards rehashed criticism there is plenty of rehashed support of Paul Hurst and the way the team is performing.

No. If I'm doing shite at my job, it's my responsibility, not that of my manager (if I had one! ) As for the selections, I'd imagine you're talking about Brown and to some degree Neilson not being picked. Well, I didn't go to Macclesfield, but I do know that I've not seen Brown put in anything like a good performance for months. He is also pretty useless aerially so I can see why Clay was selected instead against a big and physical team. The simple fact is that on Saturday, the players were the ones who fluffed their lines. Hurst not entirely blameless as I'd have thrown caution to the wind and brought on another attacker for the last 15 minutes or so, but then we might just as easily have conceded another one or two. The injuries meant that we didn't really have too many options for other changes.
While everyone should take responsibility for the job they do, if they have a shite manager Like I recently had that really made you feel like telling him to shove the job then that can also have an effect on your performance.

Doubtful that any player is not trying to do the best they can and as you say, a manager does have an effect on performance. The manager picks the team, sets out the basic pattern of play and motivates the players. If he is not on top of his own game it affects the performance of the whole team. Very rare that a side is successful in spite of the manager.

...and yet, when asked, apparently several players cite the "support" they receive at BP as a key factor in sub-par performances (compared to fantastic upbeat away support). #rehash tag: UTM

Gutted Harry! I started to read hoping that you might try to answer some of the points I made...Oh well there's always next year.. Incidentally the words "I have no problem with" give you a bit of a clue to what I actually said...
