    what's so precious about our other formation? We're getting beat and going behind whatever we play especially the one you want, whining on about a change of formation is preposterous given we've taking most defeats on the one you're proposing.

    Clearly you're a man of 'If it doesn't work, keep ****ing doing it regardless' kind of person. That's not for everyone fella.

    That team is an insult.

    Where was this "Competitive budget" Short's hatchet man promised?

    I know it's an impossible situation but I can't just accept the way the club is being ruined and the fact we're being told there's no other way. Don't piss on my shoes and tell me it's raining springs to mind

    Yep, the real problem, not the bloody formation. People think it will actually make a difference sticking to the same one we get hammered with every week. Grayson is just trying juggling trying to get teams our while trying tactics and systems. We're very low on numbers and what we've been doing clearly isn't working. Credit to grayson searching for an answer, he doesn't have our eyes which have seen us for years, folk quick forget that when he instantly doesn't realise what systems we struggle with or who the bad eggs are, takes time for him to learn this **** through his own eyes. Still can't believe people thought this squad was big enough though. Holy crap.

    I would have stuck with the formation from Hull and made it work with the players available because we were a damn sight better with it than when we've gone 3 at the back. Especially at home.

    If we go a full calendar year without a home win the club should make a gesture of good faith and offer £1 tickets for our first home game in January. I know as fans the club don't owe us anything but as I said it would be a gesture of good faith which fans deserve
