You are doing better than the likes of Forest, Wolves, Blackburn, Bolton and Blackpool
It's a tough league for consistency especially when your manager tries to change the ethos of your team and bring them up to date with modern possession football, right now it is messy and stop-start but...
I got to say these Brighton fans got their head in the clouds.
It is ridiculous and they need to stop making Gus in/out threads after every game, they are still a top 8 side right now and not much more or less. Dumb to think otherwise just based on crowds which would obviously come from a new...
You are 2 seasons behind us, you think we always played the way we do now? there is a learning process. Once the players are all comfortable playing that way then the passing speed and accuracy will increase.

Our fans were always 100% behind the manager, never screamed to lump the ball forward and fully embraced our style.
If you can do the same and wait another season then you'll do the same as us. It took us 3 seasons, you're in your second now. The Championship is the best place you can learnt...
