Yeah I hate when match going fans try to make others feel like they’re less of a fan if they don’t regularly go to games

I’m a wheelchair user so I can’t fly over on my own have to convince someone to go with me so in the 8 years we’ve been away I’ve gotten to like three games but that doesn’t mean I also didn’t sit through the **** of Parkinson etc I just watched at home when everyone around me was saying why are you bothering just check the results

Am I going to more games this year? Yes because everyone wants to go to premier games so I don’t have to rely on one person going I have multiple people wanting to go to games, which I knew would happen so I bought a season ticket for the first time since i turned 16 and my parents told me the price was too high for the amount we went, so I wouldn’t have to worry about getting tickets to games(took 3 days to get through to the ticket offices and it wasn’t even me that got through) I’m going to the same number of games in the first 3 as I did in 8 years I’m sure some would call me a fair weather supporter but it’s not always possible for people to get to games

Rant over<laugh>
No one has to justify themselves imo. I work weekends so have to put half days in to go and there’s times I can’t get away from work. I have still had a ST every season since the SOL opened (and before)to support the club through times when literally a lot of our support frankly gave up.
 
I respect the fans who have always championed Dan Neil, he is one of our own, so I get it. My opinion is, his ability and influence has always been overblown. I’ve never seen what other fans have seen with him.

On this forum alone, I’ve read folk compare him with Rodri and talk about him playing for Liverpool and England. I don’t think he’ll ever be anything more than a decent championship player. He’s too slow, he’s erratic anywhere in the final third (I know that’s not his game as a DM but some of our fans have said he’s the complete player) he’s not mobile enough, strong enough and is dispossessed far too easily in dangerous positions. He got away with it a lot in the Championship but in the premier league he’d cost us goals.

He has too many weaknesses to ever go ‘right to the top’ and nearly always goes missing in the big games. I think he’ll drop down to the Championship again but I’d like to see him move abroad where a slower pace to the game would suit his style more.

He turns 24 in a few months so he’s not a kid anymore and he’s at an age where he should really be looking to be playing first team football and it looks likely that isn’t going to happen here apart from maybe the odd cup game.

We don’t know what’s happening with his contract but he should either sign a new one pronto, if the club are trying to keep him here or we should sell him and get a decent fee while we still can, rather than let him walk away for nothing. If he leaves, it will be with everyone’s best wishes and we’ll always remember him playing his part in returning us to the top tier.

How’s it harsh?

We’ve currently got Ballard and Seelt at CB. Harrison Jones has been playing at LB!

Line up like that in the PL and we’ll be lucky to get 20 points, man.
Because we are not in the last 3 hours of the transfer window! There is still time left to do something therefore we are not desperate IMO.
