Wanting us to win a few games at home and be exciting to watch isnt unsustainable at all. No ones saying we need to win every game 6-0. I agree its been bad for years, but now we've got an owner who doesn't want to see that and is trying to do something about it, good on him i'm all for it.
Exactly why i said in the last part he's trying to do something about it, but as usual you just see what you want to see.
For starters I'd just be happy if we played the majority of our games not 5 yards away from our own box and end up back with our keepers from throw-ins and freekicks near there corner flags.
It's not about seeing what I want to see it's not using a stick to beat Rosenior with that is broadly unrelated to him.
He wouldn’t have spoke to him before coming then surely? Anyway it made perfect sense why he didn’t drop Allsop anyway really so that point is ridiculous and stupid for acun to use as justification really
So the way we played under and home form under him is not related to him?

Not when we had so much success away under him, no.
I think the proof is in the pudding regarding how you get into the playoffs without parachute payments in terms of style.
Luton - direct, Cov - adaptive style to opponents, Boro - fast paced attacking football, Sunderland - counter attacking. Just last season, the teams that come down can afford to play the style of football we deployed this season but we simply don’t have the resources to build a side capable of producing Southampton away type performances over the course of 46 games. We’ll make a lot of money though as it develops players but don’t see progress to the next level

Within reason, the style really doesn't bother me. I never though Bruce's style was particularly great, especially away, but he ground out results and got us promoted twice.
I think back to when we played Huddersfield on Sky and Boyd got the smash-and-grab winner. It wasn't a pretty performance but by god was it effective. Then again, that's why he's got more promotions to the PL than anyone else, or he might be tied for that record.
there's definitely a balance needed, i think players at this level lack some of the ability to play it to a high level
Whilst your commitment to supporting the club is commendable. It doesn’t weigh your opinion higher than others. Bloke sat next to me drives down from Whitby every game and I’m coming in from East Hull. We both have a good talk about each game. Let’s not get petty
Not being petty, saying I want to be entertained at home games is all I’m asking for.
