It's a bit more like people say the most negative thing they can but if it's a good result and performance they don't say much at all.

They have, to be be fair, and I guess when we win and play well there isn't that much to say about it all.Quote:

I don't watch much these days - I only saw the Spurs game because I was away with the in-laws and they wanted to watch it, kinda glad I saw it though given the result. I'm much less interested in football in general these days, it's not the sport I grew up with, but yeah I can't completely disentangle myself from it and still kept an eye on the score today.Quote:

Nope. The reason people get naffed off, isn't because we lose to West Ham in a one off match; It's because we lost to West Ham, in the same way we lost to Aston Villa two seasons before.Quote:

The reason you don't get the frustration, is because you think it's more comfortable to stay still.
Spurs beat City 4-1 today.
Billions of pounds has nothing to do with it.
Drilling a team of players is the way to go, and until our numpty of a manager respects the game instead if living in his own dream world, we will forever be left behind.
Everyone was quite rightly utterly disgusted with the West Ham result.
Letters off on his fucking high horse again. No idea how he got up there though. If only he was actually better than everyone else. Might be worth listening to then.
I do 'get' the frustration, I don't get the ridiculous over-reaction and pant wetting.Quote:

You can always point to individual results and that is not an argument. Over a season the money has an effect. It's had an effect for us too now we've got the money to sign players like Ozil and Sanchez.Quote:

Rightly so, but all the hyperbole writing off our season after that one game was and remains nonsense. We've stuttered a bit so far but they're just starting to look like a pretty decent team again, we're in touch with the top of the table and for now that's all we need to be.Quote:

Letters has developed into a deadly WUM.
Yeah, but it's always positive. Why would being positive about the club we all support wind anyone up?
