Quoted from GrimPol

Getting easy ticks by dissing the last regime is great as far as it goes, but actually solves nothing. Your view is that you are doing us all a favour and reminding us "Lest we forget" how bad things were.
And yet here we are struggling, with a Manager employed by the last regime, who took us down (he had his work cut out tbf) an insipid L2 finishlast season (again tbf a short time to get his team together) and when all the pieces are in place, we have a bad start. We have DaleH coming in moaning that his mate has beastly things said on this site, but doesn't even mention our problem, but "he is sure" that PH will sort it, without actually saying how. Others of course think the 21st Group has the answers on their spreadsheets, and people believe them. Yes they may extract the last 5% but now we need 50% uplift to save this season. The best input is from someone that PH should recruit to play his system or play the system for players he's recruited. It's probably correct.
So keep wallawing in the past, getting oodles of upticks whilst adding nothing of value to the discussion in hand. What are we going to do?


Might I suggest clapping along in a rather happy manner it seems the go to for many.

What worries me is that PH is reverting to type in his pre match interviews. Today he alluded to the players lack of confidence being due to the pressure from the fans. Alienating the fan base isn’t the wisest way forward.

My post was not driven by the desire to get ticks nor was it my view that I was doing everyone a favour. I was merely expressing a personal and superficial viewpoint and not a particularly outlandish one at that.
You don’t agree with it and that’s fine by me!

He said that he understood that the fans want the team to be winning games and that it affects confidence if they don’t. I wouldn’t have said it if I hadn’t heard it.

So he didnt say anything about pressure from the fans like you first stated?

He’s actually just said it how it is, that when you dont win, of course it isnt going to help confidence. Bloke cant flipping win
