Poor spirit - I blame the spoof posters

Poor spirit - I blame the wind-up merchants

Now there are a few amongst us that think its a great wheeze to wind up the rest of the forum by continually slagging off McGhee and the team.

Well its a joke that has has turned sour.

Unfortunately there are plenty of people on here who cannot see its a joke and are easily led into equally vitreolic postings. I cant begin to analyse why this is. Perhaps they are children or perhaps they are just the sort of people that need to be loved.

What do we have then? - a downhill spiral that is accelerating till most fans get pissed off. Eventually, as in all crowd behaviour this transfers itself to the team.

Why dont you give it a rest.

Well said sir.

It pisses me off that there are so many on here that have made a stand that Mark Mcgee is the perfect manager and even if he Didn't win another game to the end of the season you would stand by him - so how long will you actually give a failing manager.

Agreed. A jokes a joke but its getting out of hand, all the bandwagon jumpers need to shut the f*** up now.

He took us up, he kept us up, we are still in the fight this season. What more do you expect on 7,000 gates?

Don't get me wrong i was never thinking of play offs etc but i cannot remember so many strange tactical decisions and team selections by a manager - and then being proven right by the scoreline.



Do you not feel he is mixing things around far to often?

 

[blockhseagull]

I still have faith in McGhee, however i feel our goalscroring problem is because of him in some ways.

Has to give a partnership a chance.... they don't even get 90mins together let alone a run of games

Believe his constant switching has caused major confidence problems for CKR and especially Jakey who looks well short of confidence.

I think both of the above can cut it in this league...just need a run of games and backing from the manager

Utter bollox... there was no lack of team spirit, just a total inability to put chances away...

I didn't mention team spirit - you did.

What I am saying is that many of the team, and that includes McGhee, now seem pretty pissed off at the continual sniping by so called fans.

I have lost count of those that have mentioned it in interviews, in phone-ins, or even on NSC. It started to surface with Guys outburst on here.

 

[Ernest]

Good post, I wish all the plastic stay at home whingers would f*** off and leave us loyal season ticket holders to SUPPORT the team

I can see that but first of all people are perfectly entitled to express their opinions and I would say they're better here than at Withdean. The other point is that, as has been said over and over if you don't like it don't read the board. I don't agree with a lot that's said here but it's up to me whether I come on here or not.

Let's face it, most posters have been subject to pointless personal abuse at one time or another as it yet we still come back.

I would agree that feelings are better vented here than directly at the team while they are playing.

My point is, that this is like a cancer. A few posters get at players and McGhee for a wind up and others who are easily led jump on the band waggon. Most dont have an original thought in their heads.

I dont think you're naive enough to think that this sniping stays locked behind the closed doors of NSC. I hear it propagated in all sorts of ways.

I don't disagree with anything you say believe me and I'm sure you're right. It's just my way of trying to balance a lot of what gets posted even though a lot of the time it's little more than abuse (as you have admittedly said).

 

[veade]

its alright saying leave him alone but all of us at sometome have quetioned his substitutions during a match,constantly changing the strikers and not letting 2 bed in together and form a partnership,buying players and then saying he's one for the future,falling out with players (how many does he have to fall out with until we say its his fault and not the players fault)are players sitting at home thinking am i going to be the next one he falls out with i'm not slagging him of but i do get very bemused with what he does but i.m a person that wanted Steve Cotterall as manager but we gor mcgee instead and my mate said we would have a lot of problems with mcgee as he was the same at millwall (and yes my mate is a millwall supporter) now thats my 2 pennies worth of my chest

When was this? I missed it, can you point me in the right direction as I'd like to read that.

As for all the sniping. I back McGhee and don't agree with it, but I do agree with freedom of speech, isn't that the point of a message board? The fact is there are lots of dis-illusioned fans right now and I'd rather they vent it on here then at the match.

 

[Man of Harveys]

The fact is there are lots of dis-illusioned fans right now and I'd rather they vent it on here then at the match.

But, from what I saw at Bramall Lane, a small but vocal minority of particularly stupid individuals do it at matches as well. How this is supposed to help is quite beyond me.

OK heres 2 examples of moaning:

1. "I question his substitutions during a match"

2. "f*** off McGhee"

The first is acceptable the second is not
