    So name them. It's quite easy to say people expected a walk over without providing evidence

    We played poor.

    we need to learn how to do that.

    simple.

    No. You said that people expected a walkover. It's quite easy to say you're right without providing any evidence to back you up

    Round and round and round we go.

    No one cares mate.

    Like a dog with a bone.

    If you care that much search the thread. I thought we'd win 2 or 3 today. I was wrong, we played **** and struggled to break them down.

    The first page of this thread. 3 people said we would win comfortably. I won't read anymore.

    Do your own research lol.

    To reply to Scout and Forpady as tags dont work.

    Again the language of posts like ****e, arse, disgrace wrong in my opinion. I am allowed that opinion and will defend the team as is my right as a fan as there is a way to discuss things and personally i find some comments harsh and agenda driven.

    As was pointed out a couple of weeks ago, us older posters might not understand modern football, we do however have the right to voice our thoughts all be them no doubt outdated.

    Personally I find the tone of posts and volume of posts when we lose strange compared to when we win.

    We lost today, I expected the usual ones to jump in and ive not been disappointed

    I have problems with thi tbh.

    I don't believe a 15 year old has the emotional ability to be able to cope with all of this.

    It's all very well when he's in a winning team and doing well, but that won't always be the case.

    If a PL title chasing club really need to play a child, of that age, they're doing something seriously wrong.

    I find it disgusting that these pundits are crowing about it tbh.

    Folk can be negative as well, that's the right as fan - noone overstepped the mark

    I have no agenda, I comment on the game i watch and what I feel

    Everyone who posted tonight, posted plenty last week as well

    Not going to say any more on it, and I'll watch my language since folk don't seem to like it - be the same when people say they are f**king buzzing we won tho

    Enjoy your weekends

    It's ok, I feel. Footballers get all the help in the world. If you can enlist in the army and fire live rounds of ammunition in training at 16. You can play ball at 15.

    I literally have after reading the first page. Do you want me to continue to page 2 and 3. I assure you your odds don't improve.

    Thought I was going insane for a second. That would be if I asked someone to be on mute in a meltdown but then didn't have them on mute and referenced their posts all Saturday night.

    Enjoy your night scount you logical bastard.

    I was ****ing buzzing when we won last week. For me we didn't do the same intensity as we did then.
