Don't take offence from this but I have to ask. Quite a few times in the past when someone posts for the first time and are doing so in defence of the players, they have been a relation or friend. As I say, if not please don't take offence. By your own admission there was a lot of discontent amongst the fans last night so it doesn't seem to be only the 'small percentage of fans who post on social media'. Don't get me wrong, I hope your optimism proves to be right, but at this moment in time I don't feel we are good enough. By quite a way.
Hi Andy,
Not sure how to reply and copy your quotes (above anyway hope this worked)
No offence taken, and no I am not a relative or friend of any players, I dont know any of them personally, only when I see them play. Although if I was not sure of the relevance in making my personal opinion any less valid - I am a fan as stated.
I guess I am just a bit tired of what i class as this modern-day attitude - which seems to be if your team isnt battering everyone in sight week in week out, then it aint good enough - I have to say I am absolutely flabbergasted by what do seem very negative posts towards the side when they are top of the league. Fans mention yer but we have lost 4 and we haven't beaten a top side yet and this and that, honestly, I find it a bit cringe. As I said if i was a player and read all that, then honestly I wouldn't know what to think. We will NOT win every week, we will NOT play well every week, thats a fact. No side in the history of football has ever done that.
Yes, improvements can always be made but honestly some of the sh!t I have heard and read about our current side is utter madness. I honestly don't know what fans want? Memories in football seem so short nowadays, not so long ago all Halesowen fans would have given their right arms to be where we are now and what we have, but oh it just doesn't seem good enough. Not so long ago you could go to the Gove and be chuffed to see 200 there, the football was bang average, with no atmosphere and people would be chuffed to finish mid table or avoided relegation.
Corby at home Saturday - if we smash them - well we are once again the best team that ever played, the squad will have the perfect balance, we will have strength in depth, we dominate teams. If we lose - then lets rip it all up, the whole things falling apart and loads of things are wrong. Step back and most of the time neither are true and the truth lies somewhere in between, and in our current case, being top of the league, leans towards the former.
Anyway our top manager has now gone (we all see the reasons and wish him all the very best in his personal life) - how will be progress from here? I am sure we all agree and hope we carry on and build on what has been started and achieved as far
