it amazes me does this site. hardly been on since saturday becuase of it. The 1st loss in five 2nd loss in seven.
Here we go, three of the boards main anti critics protesters. Protesting that other individuals on the board are wrongly up in arms about the teams/individuals/managers performance and they should be supporting not criticising. Trouble is fellas you are seeing ghosts, cos despite there being plenty of talk about it, there's hardly any hard evidence of it actually happening. Challenge for you, name me 10 names who have been overly critical since Saturday's game
It's all gone quiet Cos they are frantically searching saturdays threads for evidence. You are right, 10 might have been a bit steep
I've hardly read a single post that has been overly critical As a team we were well off the pace in the second half and plenty of people have said as much, but that's hardly being over critical. We were ****, it's a fact, we move on and hope for better in the next game.
Re: I've hardly read a single post that has been overly critical You'll always get the "try hards" who are deliberately over the top negative to draw a reaction, we all know who they are and most folks don't rise to them. Apart from that I just don't see what the likes of hemsworth, steveos, dyson and whitey are seeing.
Re: I've hardly read a single post that has been overly critical To be fair to Whitey , he has not been bad this weekend with it, in fact he has been as vocal as anyone about the second half disaster.
Re: It's all gone quiet I don't think they'll find any. Many posters said pretty much the same as what Jay has said in this post which i don't think is criticism or negativity. Isn't this the place to debate and discuss your viewpoint of the game?
Re: I've hardly read a single post that has been overly critical Yep I apologise to whitey, he's changed his tune a bit recently, there's a bit more balance to his posts
Dear Rothred For starters, I'm guessing we all want the same thing. Problem is, and I reckon in your heart of hearts you know it, sometimes it goes over the top on here and has done for years. I can accept that certain folks just tease to get a reaction. However there are others who just cannot see any good in what we're trying to achieve. I'm over optimistic and look to find the good rather than the bad. Sometimes that can blind me ..but one thing I am is objective about what I see on the field, and this season I can see the start of a plan to build. Since I've posting more regularly on here I've been called offensive, distasteful and arrogant, neither of which are true. I'm now an anti critics protester. Well so be it.....I'm just like you - all I'm doing is trying to express my opinion and win over some of the pessimists; ie make them realise that sometimes the criticism isn't justified. Sometimes it is. I can't be arsed searching recent threads so can't give you ten names off the top of my head but they're there and have been since the start of the season. Before we'd played one soddin game. But it's a democracy - we're not Communists and even though THEIR (the ghosts that I'm allegedly seeing) opinion is offensive, distasteful and arrogant at least I'm in bad company. ;0) In Hillcroft I trust.
Re: I've hardly read a single post that has been overly critical I would be surprised if anybody, even the most blind optimist, saw anything positive in the second half.
ps We were quite poor in the second half on Saturday!! Is that good enough? or should I curse and abuse some more to show that I can be really critical?
That's fine, get ready for dyson to tell you to get real and his holiness the archbishop of west yorks & sky to excommuniate you from the parish of happy clappers
Re: It's all gone quiet Morning Roth mi owd bean. Sorry I didn't reply last night, went to bed. And I haven't searched any threads etc etc. I came on here last night for the first time since Saturday to see Butterfield's w@nk, Hassell's w@nk, second half we were w@nk etc etc. Now some of them might be true but it needs to be taken wi a pinch a salt considering what good run we've been on. Maybe most threads have been like that, I've just not religously read through every one so might have mis judged the tone. Interesting that I'm seen as Mr Positivity wi mi buddy Hemsworth though. I quite like it.
