We had a far worse season last year. We know what it'd be like on here.

Yes, and most of it was unbearable, disproportionate nonsense, fired up by entitled knee-jerkers...

Let's not pretend our fans are better or worse than others. It is just what a lot of "fans" do.
It's a bit of a disease really as if you are helping the club by pointing out obvious weaknesses & criticising individuals. Saints "fans" Wigan "fans" react in a similar way.
The forum has been so quiet this weekend we won by 4 points but if we lost by 2 (which could easily have happened) ... wow we'd have had some wonderful advice.

Internet generation probably. Same in most sports to be fair.

Fans with the attention span of about half an hour, where any sort of negative, automatically as fans demanding someone be fired.

And it's pretty much the same in other walks of life - 5 Prime Ministers in 8 years, compared to 5 in the previous 35 pretty much shows what sort of society we now live in.

You are right Dita. Just watch the fall out at Leeds now.

Leeds are a funny one. Such a big club, yet they seem almost content recently with mediocrity. Their recruitment has been uninspiring at best and their GF appearance last season seems almost to be the worst thing that could have happened, because it papered over some very obvious cracks.

They will do well now to make the play offs and will be interesting to see if they maintain the faith in Rohan Smith.
