Rogue Baboon 0 Posted January 26, 2017 What part of your reply was responding to any other part of the post?Seems like you were trying to take this thread off on its own course... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greavsy 2,398 Posted January 26, 2017 Not at all, and apologies if that''s how it looked, was just making a point, that as a public forum I am entitled to do.Would have been happy if there was no response to my post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
morty 0 Posted January 26, 2017 Anyway, getting back on track, good article.And Alex Neil is here to stay, for the forseeable, so we may as well just get on with things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greavsy 2,398 Posted January 26, 2017 Staying on topic,Which part of this is news? I thought we all knew the board had stated their intentions to stick with AN. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rogue Baboon 0 Posted January 26, 2017 Agree - especially now the home form is solid. In theory you wouldn''t bet against us going unbeaten at home for the rest of the season.However, home form will keep us where we are in the league when coupled with out appalling away form. Thats what needs to change if we want to get in the playoffs. Failure to reach the playoffs will probably see Neil leave in the summer imo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greavsy 2,398 Posted January 26, 2017 As identified above, home form is vastly different to away form, would we benefit from playing a different system away.For example, It''s not unusual for teams to play one up front away, and two at home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully the restructuring of the squad is almost a separate issue, that doesn''t neccessarily require Alex Neil in the summer.Reaching the play offs or not will be a good marker.

Guest Posted January 26, 2017 How do you do the "clicky" thing please?I''ve been working with computers since the mid 80''s and feel a complete idiot when I can''t make a link go red.A tutorial might get the thread luddites interested as well.On the AN situation. I think he would have gone by now so despite my and many others belief that he is not the right man, the board do and that is that.And it is important to note that 99% of those in the AN out camp are not against the man at all. Neither were they with Chris Hughton. They both come across as "bloody nice blokes".As the Godfather would have said, "It''s just business". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coq au vin 0 Posted January 26, 2017 Good article mate.I genuinely believe our fragility comes from one or two players uncertain about themselves which when you play footy is infectious. Couple this with how results have been for us and the teams above us and the crowd''s disappointment from last season and it''s a cauldron of miasma.I was hoping some new blood at the back would start to make a difference, new faces, new attitudes could breath fresh life into the squad. We''ve seen what Olive is capable of when on form, same with Pinto. We''ve been unlucky in losing Thompson, if rumours are to be believed, so fingers x''d we get some central midfield cover in too. Norwich luck I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seems to work ''out of the box''Option 2: Use Chrome but install the ''User Agent Switcher'' plugin (Google it) and use that to ''Emulate'' Firefox while browsing the Punk Un forums.Either of the above will reveal a ''toolbar'' while composing your text that is absent while using non-compatible browsers, which seems to be most of them; especially mobile versions. That toolbar contains an ''insert hyperlink'' button as illustrated by morty a few posts above. Click that button after highlighting a word or phrase (in the same way you would when using Word or Outlook) and you can paste the hyperlink into the box that appears.

hogesar 9,502 Posted January 26, 2017 Good article Duncan.It''s one of those where I''m 50/50 most of the time. Alex Neil hasn''t really done much to prove himself a good manager - he motivated the guys for half a season to get promoted but since then inconsistency and tactical nous alongside players losing confidence and his inability to inspire it back into them has my head telling me he should have gone a while ago.But there''s something about him I like. The problem is the yardstick is now getting to 6th place.From where we are now, that would be an achievement if a new manager came in. Would it be seen as an achievement if AN done it? After all, he''s had a squad many have associated with the top 2, 3 at worst. And managed to drag us to a position where 6th would require a very good run of form now.

Greavsy 2,398 Posted January 26, 2017 I really do given up.Thank you for the sensible and helpful replies, that is appreciated.I post a serious question, and still people reply patronising and belittling. Oh the irony.Thanks again for the sensible replies.For the record too, I have no problem with Morty being right by the law of averages with so many posts to his name it must happen once in a while.
