Poyets first game

[Brian Storm]

Hi Cest,

Its been a while - because if, you are not it the 'I agreee the the local suspects' on here you get hammered for having a different opinion.

But with it being the dawn of a new era I thought I would have my say and it's nothing to do with 'following my team through thick an thin' it's an opinion regardless of what others think.

I think we will go down. I have seen enough of this side over the last 4 years to notice something that is blinking obvious. We have rubbish players. I use the word 'rubbish' because that is the level of quality I see. Heart and passion have nothing to do with this. It's about winning and quality.

I think out of our back 5, that have been playing or 7 if you count Diakité and Roberge that they have been shocking. I have seen sunday league teams with better defences.

Midfield, Ki is the only footballer for me. Until Catts came in the others have been total rubbish. These are not throw away comments. I have seen every game, either live or on sky/internet.

Up front - No goals. Running in the right areas and holding up the ball is not what forwards are for. They are for scoring goals and ours can not do that.


I love your optimism Cest but you are like me. Totally want believe that Gus is the man but he's not. You have done this with Bruce, O'neil, Di Canio and now Gus. I will always support them regardless of the crap they serve up but the nuts and bolts of it is, we are going down.

Before all of you get you knifes out let me finish.

We have no winners in our team. Sorry one, Emanuele Giaccherini who won a title with Juve.

All the others couldn't get into their sides prior to joining us or have been relagated and we've picked from that. Everyone can nit pick and throw stats at me but the sooner everyone realises we will be in the championship next year the easier it'll be.

These are my opnions and you can call me what you want. it's been on the cards for some time now and I have finally realised that we will be going down this season and that's because of the rubbish players we have at the club.

It's as black and white as that.

Did you not see the Fulham game?

I'm not under any elusions mate, it's a tough ask, I just don't get the mentality that we are already doomed. So why bother even turning up? if we haven't got hope then what have we got? may as well chuck the towel in and get a refund on my season card.

True mate. Its going to be eventful. (I am whistling the great escape tune as I type!!)

It cant be black and white if its an opinion.

Why do people on here write "in my opinion" then come up with absolute statements as though their opinion is fact?

You think we will go down

You think all the players are rubbish (even fletcher? and inlcuding the new players who havent had more that 7 games under 1 manager? - you cant judge players that quickly, including Ki)

You think all is lost

I think you are wrong, so it cannot be black and white, cos opinions include, not only shades of grey but all the colours that exist.

IMHO we have overall an average team which is underperforming, we should be mid-table. We sold a better than average goalkeeper Mig and a better than average midfielder Sess. Looking at the half a dozen first teamers brought in atm only Giac looks class. A big problem that has not been solved is if Fletcher is missing we do not have a replacement. Graham and Altiadore have been bought on the cheap and are frankly not good enough.

If Poyet can tighten up the defence and get Fletcher gets match fit we should start to get a few points. Having an average team still means we are better than many others...but we have to get the results to prove it.

Don't worry, we can do it mate, you just keep whistling

Hope I'm proved wrong but I fear we are mortally wounded.

Tis but a scratch.

I feel your pain kidda and yes I want to believe but this is no blind faith.

I see Fletcher, Altidore, Giacherinni, Johnson, Ki, Cattermole and I see good players to firm a spine of a team. I see Gardner, Celustka, JOS, Roberge, Diakite, Larsson, Cabral, Westwood and I see players well able to support that spine.

If I thought they were ****e is be the first to say it how it us mate. I don't do pussy footing when it comes to opinion but I genuinely do think with Poyets footballing background and beliefs he can fashion a silk purse out of the pigs ear we have to work with here.

Give him the next 10 games and I think you will see a turnaround of results. If by January we are still bottom and 6+ points adrift then maybe I will concede but not with 93 points to play for I won't. Neither will Poyet either thankfully.

FTM kidda.
