[Albion] Do we now have a fecking Entitled fanbase?

[The Fits]

We had two seasons with Chris Hughton in the Prem. Each season we won 9 games.
We won 9 games under Potter last season & managed to turn a couple of losses to draws. We are almost halfway through this season & have just two wins.
I cannot see where the next win is coming from.

Fulham at home, we're bound to beat the teams below us....

Find a post where I said that, I challenge you.

[MENTION=2719]Mouldy Boots[/MENTION] will back me up, that I’ve never been onboard with Potter.

Yes it is true.

I knew you would come calling one day.

 

[redoubtable seagull]

You’ve kind of answered your own question. People are frustrated because we should be doing better. One win at home in a calendar year is an appalling record irrespective of how nice we play in areas of the pitch that have no impact on a game. Most fans are realistic about expectations but I really thought this year would be one of some progression. But it’s another relegation battle but one where we seem to have little fight in us.

Last month I believed that!

 

[clapham_gull]

Don't be silly, I've just watched a home game against a very underperforming Arsenal with all the strikers on the bench.

If I'm entitled then I'm entitled to see at least one striker start the game.

He's lost the plot.

Likewise, just cannot see us winning a home game this season though we might snatch another away one

 

[Mike Small]

The question should be.
Do we have an overly loyal or stubborn or arrogant belief in our management team?

 

[neilbard]

How have we become like this? We were such a united fan base. It felt like under Hughton if we went down we’d go down together. Not so now.

I wanted Hughton out (as many of us did), but I don’t recall anything close to the vitriol that Potter, or his supporters are getting now. It’s another level. There’s a horrible entitled section to our fanbase that’s been cultivated somehow. I’m starting to think it’s just another psychological knock on effect of 2020.

Simple, no win at home all season and one win at home in 2020, Potter is an arrogant prick with a bullet proof contract from Bloom.

Hughton managed 6 home wins in the first half of the 2018/19 season we were virtually safe by Feb. Hughton's sacking was knee jerk

and will come back to haunt Bloom.

Interesting post given the measured history of your contributions.

 

[wellquickwoody]

Yup.

Watch people ask for Diego Costa. Reality and fans are living on two different planets.

Will you promise to leave at the same time as GPott, please?

I might stay just for you.

There’s a first time for everything I suppose.

You just asked and answered your own question. Like the team, the ‘togetherness’ has gone due to the current manager. The players have lost it and so has a lot of the support. You running around to every thread defending Potter and thinking we should all be thankful to him is just delusional. You need to grow up a little and stop telling genuine supporters that have been around a lot longer than you how they should react to the current manager, almost certainly taking us down. To tell fellow supporters that they were happy that Arsenal scored displayed your immaturity.
Accept that, what is becoming the vast majority are not happy with the current situation and don’t think the manager is up to the job!
You obviously have a different opinion and are happy to be relegated!

I do respect your opinion in that you’ve been very consistently Potter out for a while.

But how is GP being “an arrogant prick”? Explain that. Whatever you think of him as a coach, he seems a gent, much as Hughton was.

 

[JC Footy Genius]

No, we have a fecking 'normal' fan base ... normal as in a wide range of views and different camps all mainly spouting nonsense

 

[wellquickwoody]

Bloom rushed into a six year deal for this clown, not his finest moment which now makes it financially difficult to sack him.

For a very, very switched on businessman, it is looking like a very silly mistake right now.

Watch his interviews back..

 

[Icy Gull]

The irony is that, having been beaten by Arsenal, NSC is just like Arsenal TV (after a defeat) tonight. I wish I could see you all on screen being interviewed. It would be just as funny....if we weren’t the Albion

 

[trueblue]

In answer to the original question, No. But a small very vocal minority that is.

Agree with this the second season is notoriously hard going for promoted sides, Chris Wilder for example isn’t a bad manager it’s the nature of the beast which is the PL. Hughton had earned a chance at a third season IMO.
