There's a difference.

For example, at the time I posted that we looked in trouble, and didn't look like we could achieve promotion, which we didn't. I also gave a constructive assessment as to why I felt we needed change.

But this season, we are unbeaten and we have supporters still complaining, it's unjustified. IMO it has to be constructive to be fair.

But whatever my opinion. Would I turn up at the ground to boo PP of the players? No.

"But this season, we are unbeaten and we have supporters still complaining, it's unjustified."

Yeah it's terrible how people can be so quick to complain <doh>

Dancingstripes:

"Both observations haunt us in the very first game.

Terrible keeping for the penalty. And we don't have a striker suited to Parkinson's style of football (if you can call it a style)

Why play grigg if you've got absolutely zero creativity in midfield to supply him? He didn't have a single through pass to him yesterday, not even an attempted one.

We were the better side there's no doubt. But if our weaknesses can haunt us against them, we've got no chance of putting together any kind of real consistency to mount a serious challenge.

Either Parkinson will have to be replaced or backed. I know which one I'd choose."

Another total contradiction, calling for the manager to be sacked after one game ...

...not very good at this forum malarkey are you.

have to say that after many years of 'false dawns' added to the past half dozen or so when we did not deserve to be in the premier but somehow managed to cling onto that status, watching people throwing cash into the club or trying to cut costs to the bone yet not seeing a single improvement of any note should explain the current feelings amongst fans.

there is also the worry now that the current owners have hit a point where their boasts have come back to bite them squarely on the arse yet the greed in them appears to be causing potential owners to walk away...with the wage cap in place (legal or not) more purse strings to be tightened, then if/when we actually get promoted it looks very much like the club will be unable/unwilling to fund the players it will need to at least stay in the championship and not drop straight back down.

i don't like to see fans moaning and arguing all the time, negativity breeds negativity...but i can at least understand WHY so many are so pissed off atm.

Again, constructive criticism.

Since then we've won back to back games, and I'm happy to give constructive praise.

It works both ways, but it has to have reason behind it.

You're criticising Sunderland supporters for their lack of patience ...

... and wanting the manager sacked after the first game <doh>

So, your criticism is constructive but other people's is STUPIDITY, rightio.

These cows are small ...

I didn't say I wanted the manager sacked after the first game.

You did.
