    I was reading some comments from Exeter fans one who said both teams played some great stuff with both sides going all out to win.He finished by saying Barnsley are the best team he had seen this season.

    Yeah but it always happens Frog.
    The over reactions on here last season as well were at times, ridiculous. And that was while we were still thinking about the top two, not just the Play offs.
    I dread to think at times, what the criticisms would be like, if we were in a relegation scrap in this League.

    I'll never forget the fact that some on here/Twitter wanted Duff gone after 3(THREE!) games...

    I urge you to watch the Brian Clough, Don Revie interview.

    Nothing wrong with wanting to be better than the previous season and having high standards.

    I'm all for that, having hopes of improvement rather than just settling with what we've got etc.
    But we need to be realistic and saying he should be sacked before its too late, and that he was a bad appointment, after each home defeat, just isn't normal.
    Especially as we're still doing well and are currently 3rd.

    Mebbi that's more an indictment on the overall quality in League 1, rather than a glowing compliment on us. IMO there were periods of play against Exeter where we looked like we'd never played together. On and off the ball.
