Again... I wasn't putting any words in your mouth it was just the inference from your the words in your posts and I wasn't the only one who inferred such meaning given rancido's post. But I don't want to get in a t1t-4-tat exchange on who said what. If I misrepresenting what you were trying to say, I apologise.

We all know the root cause of the issue with this club, I think we are in agreement there and we can agree that results certainly haven't been acceptable as they haven't for the past 12 months. However, the club made a decision to appoint a young, hungry, possibly up and coming manager to help build a side. However much we may want to change our status now, the truth is it is going to take a while to do that. Hence, IMO, we need more patience and a little less gnashing of teeth after each defeat.

I've also posted in agreement with you that we have to give MJ more patience (as thin as it's wearing when looking at the team sheet at 2-15 on a Saturday) and i don't actually think (as I've posted before) we'll be in a relegation battle, but if we project forward a season and say we finish lower mid-table as probably both you and I suspect due to the bad start, it hardly helps attracting players in 2019/20 and so the vicious circle continues and the bit I really bother about is the disappearance of the floating fans earlier and earlier every season as that affects budget too going forward. I'm not sure what works better.. downright outrage at our plight or solemn acceptance. Fenty never listens to one because he's got skin as thick as a rhino and the other he takes as non-criticism or support. Either way he's staying put even though he's stated he wants to leave, and those loans remain on the books even though he's written them off in his head. It's a crying shame what's happened to the club and I'm more worried about the thousands that used to go because they don't care anymore rather than the ones who post on here because they've got a lot more patience and loyalty. If we are to take a step forward, every fan counts not just the diehards. Anyway, we all want the same thing. I apologise too for being a bit shirty with you, here's to a good weekend Mal and I hope it brings you the three points we all want and need..

It clearly isn't down to the current manager - but it's OK, I'm expecting Championship football in 5 years - because a director said so!

It's not politics. It's the truth. Honest. I read it on a bus.

I once read in a paper that there was a London bus on the Moon and that Elvis was working in a burger bar after he had died, I wasn't as gullible as to believe those  either. To be fair the bus slogan said " Could be" spent on the NHS and not " Would be " but some people can't interpret the difference.

Duped into voting for £350m for the NHS that doesn’t exist but at least we’ll get the blue passports back.

So it was some sort of homage to the Daily Sport?

George Best was once asked why he quit the UK and went to play in the States?

His reply.......,

“I saw something on the side of a bus that said Drink Canada Dry so I thought America was close enough”. 🙂

So as a Mod who can’t keep politics off  a footy thread. Would you care to remove it to non footy.
