    What has happened to this place, and no I don't mean the new layout. (Which is brilliant by the way. Cheers Gally) It's now seemingly the home to just a handful of people who are all jumping on the club with every post. If any other poster tries to put over the opposing view, they are jumped on by these handful who practically live on here it seems. I'm not a regular anymore, some other great contributors look to have left too, Jay for example, Ponty, Hemsworth and even Whitey has called it a day to name but a few. This forum used to be a brilliant place with piss funny posters. We had a laugh. We even talked about football. All I see now is bickering, and constant digs at anyone who feels positive. I understand it slightly, because of the handful doing it, some are well known moaners. They're conspicuous by their absence when things are good on the pitch. Soon as results aren't great, they're back and hammering the club for anything and everything. By all means, debate things. But have a look at yourselves. Check your last 100 posts out. It's just sheer negativity.
    The club did an offer for the Hudds game. But most reaction to that was moaning about the empty bit of the west stand. And yesterday the club announced another offer for the Brentford game. Why aren't we seeing positive posts? There's a thread about it, but it's negativity in there as well.
    I could and should just stay away and the biggest shame of all that there isn't even any squirrel porn discussions anymore.

    Couldn't agree more, I'm also weary of being informed that my euphoria with the club's current position should be curtailed and instead I should desperately try to find things that are wrong. Of course there are things wrong, that's true in life, love, and in football clubs. But there's loads of things right too, more than at any time in the past 16 years or so.

    Of course the people finding fault are entitled to do so, but, and it's a big but, I don't understand why there's no balance between fault-finding and praise with some posters. It's a free forum for people to express their views, but f*** me it's tiresome beyond belief.

    You need to choose your positive words carefully folks, or you'll be labelled 'happy clappers'. But, seriously, I fully agree, it does seem to have turned into a forum of negativity and petty squabbles this last couple of weeks.
    I rarely post because I know the snipers are waiting to attack anyone who isn't downbeat about us being the 31st ranked team in English football.

    Great post mate, but I've just been accused of being negative for being positive, so beware

    It's since the January window mate. It's just gone mad. Wasn't much moaning after we beat Rotherham and villa, but as those wins dried up, it's become a free for all for questioning the running of the club.

    We're not allowed to be positive.

    We all need to moan about how the club are losing money, dont know what they are doing, wont tell us information that we dont need to know, only publish the financial information that they have to publish and dont tell us exactly how much they spend on grass seeds a year.

    Keep up.
