Our team is lacking confidence - get off their backs

Anyone watching Saturday, must have seen the lack of confidence in the team at the moment.

This can only be improved by support from us in the stands.

The team are quite capable of improving on our current position, but need a lift.

Any chants of dissatisfaction, will make the situation worse.

PC is not a fool, he is a successful businessman, with this in mind, he will make astute decisions when he see's fit.

Let him run the club and make these decisions.

Let SD pick and manage the team.

If results do not pick up, then I am sure things will change.

But for now, lets get behind the 11 players that take to the field. Please!!!!!!

 

This can only be improved by support from us in the stands!

What a pile on nonsense. </p>

If the players lack confidence then it's up tp the manager to rectify that. The manager. That's what he is there for, to manage people. Hence the name manager.</p>

 

finally a common sense post

yes the manager has a role to play in confidence but for sure we can only harm the situation with some sort of protest

PC is no fool he know's what he is doing and he is in regular contact with SD, he knows more about what is going on than the 90 mins we see, although that is the most important PC has the bigger picture and is capable of making any decision when required. Middlesbrough just got relegated but everyone praised Gibson (I think the chairman is called) for sticking with Southgate and being patient, why should we encourage less patience?

 

even if we get off their backs

they'll still be ****.

 

The Fans Are The Ones Lacking Confidence

A reletively short distance to Leicester and we can't take 1,000. It doesn't surprise me that people would rather stay away.

 

For the ***** they have served up so far I think the fans have been very lenient - towards both the players and the manager

 

RE: finally a common sense post

Less patience? We have been patient for the past three seasons with Davey hoping he can turn things around. We are flogging a dead horse thinking Davey will ever get it right with us. The difference with Southgate is they have only just come down so he should be given a chance of getting them straight back up.

 

Some of these posts are bordering on insane.

 

RE: Ahh bless the poor players

Only taking home thousands per week for producing that crap.
And then naughty people shout at them when thet play badly
They want to try earning what your average working man does, or be out of work like many are at present, then pay a decent percentage of their income to go to Oakwell and watch those tossers perform like that.
Then they'd know what having no confidence was all about.

 

I'm with you. Those poor players working a few hours a day on the training pitch and getting (see I didn't put "earning") thousands of pounds a week for underperforming. Pigs will wonder how they managed to let in two against us in one half.

 

You could sing until you were blue in the face

but it will never make players better

 

Under recent successful managers

e.g. Bassett, Ritchie, then if we received a tonking then the next game we quite often came out firing on all cylinders and came up with a good result. Under Davey we tend to come out half-heartedly and get another bad result. It's the managers job to take the flakand build the players up when they lose. Davey seems to do the opposite, it's never his fault, always someone else's. Players don't seem to rspond to a defeat by, in his words, re-doubling their efforts. The crowd aren't there between games and I'venever heard our fans boo us onto the field yet. Confidence comes primarily from what is done between games Whena games nearly over and we're losing is when the crowd gets onthe players back, it's usually too late by then to affect the game, the damage has already been done.</p>

 

RE: correct

It works both ways though - they have to give us something to sing about

After witnessing our captain's performance against Coventry he came out with a load of cliched B*ll*cks about how they were going to put things right and were determined to do this, that and the other against Preston. Which was even worse. Talk is cheap. It's the same as when they say fans can be the "12th man". Most words of encouragement fall on deaf ears.

 

He said 'This (i.e. confidence) can only be improved by support from us in the stands'

I said that was nonsenseto say it can only be improved by the fans. Which is true isn't it, be honest of course it is? So it was nonsense.

 

We can All help, The Manager, the chairman and the fans!

If we try, we can do no more.

 

That's better. You're right, we can try and do no more. Others can do far more

and have far more effect. That's those who deal with the players on a daily basis. That starts and ends with the manager.
