Why would people stop slating players? Whilst we’re all aware some get a little bit carried away, just because Holloway is in charge doesn’t mean it stops.

We all remember the time when our last successful manager was guiding us to the football league and people still weren’t happy with a win. It won’t stop. No point thinking it will or hoping it will.


I guess you sit in the Main Stand then!!

Quite simply because Holloway wants to develop a team that is brave on the ball. To try and be creative and entertain. If the crowd then get on the players back for trying things- cos it won't always come off- then the players will go into their shells and play safe rather than expansive football.

He reiterated this point time and time again when he was at Blackpool and the fans eventually brought into it and the football he got them playing was awesome to watch. I expect him to keep hammering home the same message throughout his time here.

There will still be those one or two foghorn bellends in the Main Stand who think their sole purpose in life is to berate our own bench and player's making us all look like a bunch of miserable negative halfwits.

He's already been on the offensive on that in his latest interview saying about telling Tilley to have a go and take people on, but he's young and it won't always come off but the crowd should encourage him not bemoan when it fails.

But we all know theres certain idiots who constantly chomping at the bit for the first chance to knock our player's down a peg or two.

People moan about glory fan's.... I'd take them and their positivity over those one or two perenial negative gobshites any day of the week.

I would rather see  4-3, 3-3 or 3-4

Than  1-0 0-0 or 0-1

And it looks like thats how IH likes to see it.


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

The one guaranteed way to shut them up is to start consistently winning matches

I'm as impressed as anyone so far and providing no one gets carried away I can see this potentially being a Great thing. But just remember that there was an identical thread title about our last manager...

True, true, what sways it for me to jump in with both feet thought is his proven pedigree, 950 games and two promotions to the Prem. Just listening to him you can tell he a cut above what we used to. I was unsure on Jolley just kept my gob shut.
