Cracks papered over. Still think he's shite How do you think it’s appropriate to be an admin on here and at the same time be so negatively outspoken towards the team you are supposed to ‘support’? If you check my many years of posting history, on balance you'll find my posts about Town to be overwhelmingly positive. However you'll also find them to be an honest account of what I think. I genuinely think we're watching the worst football by a Town team in over a decade. My role as an admin has no bearing on my opinions of what happens on the pitch, or on my ability to honestly express them.

Well done mate. I ain't a clue what language that post was. Really? You've never heard the expression "Peak X"? Imagine, if you will: Bacuna, outrageous bit of skill, beats six defenders. Gets distracted by something in the crowd, gets dispossessed, shrugs his shoulders and goes back to a walking pace. You might have said that was "Peak Bacuna". Clear enough for you?

Maybe because he is a supporter like the rest of us. Your constant sniping at fans when they have had to put up with absolute shit over the last three years makes me think you aren't a supporter at all. If you were, you wouldn't be happy. We obviously have pretty different ideas about what being a ‘supporter’ involves.

Benefit of the doubt is given for a one off occasion. When it's consistently crap after 3 seasons it no longer becomes benefit of the doubt and is instead neglect. Why should any supporter accept the reality? It's not our fault the previous chairman decided to spend all of the clubs finances on dross like Diakhaby and Mbenza...we are paying for it though while he creams his money back. It stinks

Love how some on here think they have a clue. I'm not convinced Carlis knows what he's doing but I am convinved the average person on DATM hasn't the foggiest. We've had a hard time, so I get the cynicism, but fuck me, the largest whingers tend to be the the biggest idiots. I think he knows what needs doing but he doesn’t have the players for it and I don’t think he’s a good enough leader or communicator to pull off exactly what he wants. I'm far from convinced, but know he doesn't have a striker that can hold the ball up and link play nor a midfielder that can control a game. Whilst he doesn't have these, I find it hard to be too damning, because there isn't an obvious formation and approach for this collective of players. This needs to be considered just like some of the posts saying if Sheff U or Preston had x, y or z they'd have punished us, which are used as a stick.

It stinks Yep it’s been shit the last few years but I don’t understand how people feel that constantly moaning and bitching about it will help change things for the better. It makes the turn around job harder in my opinion, surely what we all want is to get some togetherness back? It’s a pretty sad situation when people can’t try and enjoy back to back wins in the championship without having a dig at the club.

It’s a pretty sad situation when people can’t try and enjoy back to back wins in the championship without having a dig at the club continually. I agree entirely, we do need to get that togetherness back. I think the club have to meet the fans in the middle though. I am ecstatic at the two wins, we all want to se the club succeed. The issue is the manner of the performances. I'm hoping that Toffs being back will be like a new signing because I felt when he and Campbell came on we matched them.

If you think yesterday was one of the worst teams in a decade you clearly didn't watch any games last season on ifollow! 1. I watched them all. 2. I was referring to football under Carlos, including last season, especially from about February.

I must apologise for being the first "supporter" to ever express a negative opinion about their team. Don't worry, this won't catch on...

Great to have six points from the last two games, but the football has been awful and has got to improve. Carlos has got a little more breathing space, Everton in the cup is a distraction for a few days then on to Reading. This could be a big week as far as the club putting a few more building blocks into the squad. We desperately need a ball player in midfield, and with Rhodes two month absence with injury, the need for a striker preferably a big unit is now surly a priority. Add to that the return of Toffolo and hopefully Pipa, and maybe just maybe Carlos might get a little bit less stick.

If a opinion has nothing positive in it, there are worst things to do than just think it and keep it to yourself.

You are perpetuating negative opinions and giving them credibility because of your position. They’re your opinions, not facts, not all of us agree with them and they don’t help the club. I’m amazed you can’t understand that in your position you should try and be balanced with your opinions. Otherwise let someone else who can be do it.

Cracks papered over. Still think he's shite Exactly what I was going to post when I saw this thread. Much welcomed three points, but please don't think we are going to get away with another game like this. Changes need to be made, and some half decent players brought in. Not many chances created, but we did take advantage of two. UTT.

With your post, you're guilty of doing exactly what you are accusing me of. We need leaders on the pitch, in the backroom staff, in the stands and on social media. If you don't want to be one (not even try), that's up to you. Leadership makes diffeerent forms and often involves the courage to swim against the tide. Advising someone to consider the impact of their comments on others, is not the same as voicing an entirely negative view.

It stinks So what is the answer? Just be constantly negative? Does that right any wrongs or make us a better team to watch? Yesterday was a good day and the defence were really strong and one poster still complained that Pearson got ‘bullied’ by Sharp for their goal. Even though Pearson had dug in for an hour and half and Sharp was fresh on. That is nothing to do with any of our old poor signings or DH taking his money back it is just being consistently negative.
