    Carlos has been talking about the volume levels between home and away support. He doesn't think it's up to the players to spark the home crowd into life.

    "We get great support away and I don’t see why we can’t have great support at home"

    If that is supposed to be a rallying cry, I'm afraid if I was a season ticket holder having not seen a win at home since March I'd be insulted by this.

    Cheeky git. To be fair PR has never been the liveliest of grounds but you do need that spark on the pitch to really enagage the crowd. The north stand will often try a chant or song but its hard to get enthusiastic when the play on pitch feels so much like they are going through the motions. A winning run with help but I think even if you sensed the players were giving their all it would help to lift the mood.

    The biggest PR own goal was the U turn on recruiting more loanees and not having any credible long term plan in place. Closely followed by the backing of a useless manager who has completely lost the plot! Oh and the fact that we have 10 more players out of contract at the end of the season! Oh and brining in a loanee Goal Keeper who has a 24 hour recall clause!

    I could be wrong JWM, but I think 'keepers always come with a 24hr recall unless the parent club is happy not to put that clause in place. Clubs don't have too many 'keepers on their books and so want the chance to recall any out on loan should something happen.
    Now who's decision was it to give Reo a three month deal? Did we offer that so we could look at Reo without too much obligation or was it his call because he's using us as a shop window?
    Good results and more importantly, good performances and players showing desire will help raise volume levels inside the ground, it must be difficult being vocal towards players who are here only for a short time. There's no time for a player to even get his own chant because the personnel changes so often. It truly is a clusterfuck of PR own goals and general contempt for the fans the way things are being done at the moment.
