River End Canary 18 Posted August 18, 2018 2nd away game of the season only 1100 bothered to turn upThose that did were largely mute (me included) The final indignity was after yet another humbling away defeat there were clapping the defeat like demented sea lions Nobody is holding the under performing board to account, we all seem happy with the steady decline I think a relegation again this year would be the best outcome that will be the catalyst for a resurgence under new And more competent ownership Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derby Canary 3 Posted August 18, 2018 They''ll get the message eventually Jim. Sadly it is likely to be when it''s too late! Farke still claims to be winning these games "on points" trailing out his ridiculous statistics as some kind of defence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lincoln canary (& Golden Coppel) 0 Posted August 18, 2018 It was awful. But the terrible inevitability of it all prevents the enjoyment. I was so close to not going today, due to the predictability of it all. I talked myself around, I wish I hadn’t.Yes it was a last minute defeat, but the reality is we were fortunate not to be dead and buried by 60 minutes.

GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 2,035 Posted August 18, 2018 I''ve spent many an hour stood outside outside the city stand calling for manager and chairman heads because I believed it was for the good of the club.....but that was 20-25 years ago and don''t have the energy for it anymore.....this board is rotten , with its ''self funded '' model....it''s worse than mike ashley at Newcastle, the fact that it won''t entertain outside investment is deplorable and will hold us back and eventually make us completely uncompetitive when it comes to talking promotion...if indeed we aren''t already. We won''t always have a james maddison to bail us out financially every summer. Delia and Co have got off lightly ....we were in the premier league for 4 out of 6 season and they f $$cked it up......don''t understand why there are no protests Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Highland Canary 78 Posted August 18, 2018 Surprised it was as few as 1100 seemed like more. LDC, Utd could well have been out of sight after 20 mins. But yes felt all too predictable in the end. Tbf Farke hasn’t lost the away fans who still travel. But many have obviously simply given up. Things may well look different if we don’t win any of the next three I suspect.

Branston Pickle 4,145 Posted August 18, 2018 Yes, and we created absolutely nothing in return? We didn''t hit the post, or force several decent saves? The defeat was harsh on us, as it was last week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aggy 944 Posted August 18, 2018 The small margins change games and seasons. If you’re striker is slightly better, it goes in and doesn’t hit the post, or one of those efforts flicks the keeper’s finer tips instead of his palm and carries on into the net.In a one off game, those small things going against you is one of those things. When it happens more regularly, it suggests the players aren’t good enough to make those small moments count.If the individuals aren’t good enough, the only way you’ll have success is investing in better individuals or setting the team up in a way where you make the percentages work in your favour (keep it tight at the back, play to your best players’ strengths - hit the wings early or get it over the top for your pacey striker early etc, utilise set plays and so on). Even if you suggest Farke isn’t to blame for the quality of the individuals (which will depend on how much say he has in the transfer dealings and how much money he is backed with), a good manager makes the most out of his squad, he doesn’t try and make the squad do things it can’t do.

Derby Canary 3 Posted August 19, 2018 I actually believe that the tremendous loyalty that supporters devote to this Club is unique and deserves much more than this rubbish that is dished up week in,week outUnfortunately that same loyalty is taken advantage of and abused with an assumption that it will always be there come what may. Sadly that attitude is encouraged by some of the ''individuals'' on here! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,607 Posted August 19, 2018 Our fan base is too nice and too brainwashed by the cult of Delia and her cronies. As long as they turn up to the off quiz night or show their faces in the pub before an away game they can do no wrong in the eyes of many of our fans. Many of the slightly older more militant fans have faded away having becomes disillusioned leaving this nice, happy clappy brigade more holding sway. Because of this it takes forever for the fans to turn when doing badly and even when they are unhappy many favs won’t ever say anything to the boards face and just shake their hands or swoon at their feet so they think they have a mandate to continue (although the times interview showed they don’t really care if they do anyway).
