Should I have said "why do some fans..."?

Briers and Lineham have both hinted at problems at the club that stem off the pitch.
I miss Andy Gatcliffe.

Personally I would have liked us to take a full on drubbing today, which may have led to us bottoming out and started the climb back up.

It was a bad defeat and poor performance, but not quite landmark defeat

OK I didnt WANT us to get a drubbing, obviously I wanted us to win.

But when the game started slipping away from us, I did think it would become a drubbing, much like the oft remembered defeat at quins in smiths early days.

I'd much rather have a big bang of a result to get coach/management's attention that this isn't working, than continuing with 'death by a thousand sabrecuts'

Therein lies the problem. Regardless of the result and scoreline yesterday, next week or at anytime in the season, the management won't do a thing because they are as weak and insipid as the players.

Re: Daryl Powell : Sun Mar 20, 2022 9:33 am  

Powell is obviously a very competitive man and he was clearly gutted by that performance.

Middleton and Moran are very succesful businessmen who wouldn't be as rich as they are without being ruthless.

I don't know why we can't translate that into success on the pitch. Well, not the success we all crave.

Fair point.was tongue in cheek my comment..next week's game will be more of the same I'm afraid but in front of a much smaller audience then the penny may just start to drop with the management

This will be Fitzpatrick’s true test, how does he pick the club up from this, and gets money from our pockets to watch the same show, on the same stage again on Saturday?

I get what FMC is saying regarding the drubbing, as a protest.
In similar terms, I feel not a single fan should bother to watch vs Wakey as a protest.
Will they get us then?
