    Conway could take a dump on your doorstep and you'd high five him for it afterwards.

    Not sure your critisism of apologists is valid.
    Don't get confused with apologists and optimists
    I've always been an optimist until it's starkly evident that we have no chance of survival

    I never agreed with Struber's appointement, I said at the time he had no experience of this pressure cooker, but I supported the team nevertheless.

    I am now at the point where I accept that we are finished for this season, we will go down, probably Rotherham will replace us.

    The problem is we have no Daniel Stendel and his infectious enthusiasm, drive and energy to get us promotion.

    I expect the club to now fade into mid table League 1 obscurity with crowds of 7,500

    They'll say the usual ******** about not wanting to bankrupt the club and how you can't make players sign to join or stay if they don't want to and ignore the obvious problem that the board simply don't have a ******* clue what they are doing or do know and this is all part of their plans

    You weren't one of the 3-4 posters I had in mind that are totally unable to give any criticism whatsoever for the predicament we are in.

    I'm not talking about optimists, i'm talking about people that I suspect are either connected to the club or are just unbelievably gullible that they are unable to see what is going on.

    Don’t know if I’m classed as one of your apologists but the best I can explain is that the Tactis from the manager first half were useless and the attitude from some of the players was shameful .
    Better second half but not good enough .

    We are a small tinpot club who can’t compete with teams like Brentford, Preston, charlton, Chelmsford, Welshpool and connahs quay. What do you want them to do? Spend spend spend!

    Deluded lol ;)

    Yep I agree. Difference is...our budget is higher than burys. They paid beyond their means. We have a very large squad of players hmmmm who are not good enough which we would rather have quality rather than quantity. Difference lol

    Red Rain is furiously doing some maths somewhere to try and prove some point or other.

    Did you watch the game?

    If you think the negativity towards the owners is only based on this game then I can't help you.

    Why go on about it now?

    If we'd won you'd have saved it for another day.

    Absolutely not. Been going on about it for months. Starting around the treatment of Stendel. Since then it has been lie after lie. In another post you've said the defence isn't good enough and I agree with that. But who has put that defence together? Your beloved owners, that's who.

    We were never going to win that, we only got into it after they'd taken their best two players off to put their feet up!
