    I don't care any more about how bad Poya feels, how much "effort" our CEO (whose name I forget because he is so anonymous) is putting in. It's pathetic. From top to bottom, pathetic. Week in, week out.
    The owners, all of them have let this happen. The coaching staff are also guilty, because if I can see it, and all the fans can see it, why are they allowing our club to just die like this.

    I feel totally cheated that I ever let my kids get interested in this football club.

    The coaches can only coach the players they are given. It's the owners who are allowing it to die.

    That'd work as an argument, if we didn't know for damn certain that most of the players are good enough, based on last years performance.

    The coaching has been inept. They are allowing crap systems, crap tactics. Someone has to stand up and be counted.

    The players are good enough it’s the Fukin managers they keep appointing.
    Thing is if the owners plan on staying here it ain’t going to change.

    No, we had a good system, that suited our players, and we had a disciplined manager. We did have our share of luck, but to turn to the exact opposite is negligent.

    Imho...they look like what they have been all season an unorganized rabble of kids, who look like they are chasing an empty crisp packet around a playground on a windy day.
    Teams do not have to be any good at all to beat us.

    That'd work as an argument if we still had Mowatt, Dike, and the owners hadn't dictated an end to vertical football. What we do know is that the limitations of our players were exposed less by Ishmael's tactics, the use of five substitutes, and a battering ram of a centre forward.

    So did the coaches do that? I heard a rumour that it was the owners.

    So in that scenario anybody could do what we did last season ??
    The players were good enough last season and are good enough this season to be further up the table with more points than we have .
    Poor tactics are a feature for definite but poor attitudes are a look so a big factor .

    We definitely over performed last year, but who would argue against the fact we've massively under performed this year, with the players we have?

    We are crap and I will be glad when the season is over. We are a joke at the moment.
