But no, all the fans f*king loved Farke at the time he was sacked; it was all Webber. Absolute f*king horsesh1t. Whats this? Whats this? My name being dragged through the mud? Again? I've hardly been saying anything recently. Let's get this straight. 1. We were all saying to you move on from Smith because he was rubbish, had built up no credit like Farke had, was reducing training, showed precious little leadership and frankly looked a complete damp squib - and the football was getting worse, not better. It was nothing to do with a sulky attitude on my part or anyone else's. He was a bad fit, should never have been offered the job and that was down to Webber, not the fans. 2. Me not saying that Farke should be kept? Of course I did, multiple times - it was never an issue for me - the best chance we had was to let Farke stay on, kick Todd and any other ego who thought they were bigger than the club into the U21's and get behind him. Once Farke was gone - kicked out despite his record at the club - there was no-one there to take his place and make a good go of it. Smith was an underwhelming choice and despite a few results initially, it just got worse as time went on. So yes, I complained and wanted someone else in - Webber messed up big time - and he admitted it when he said he didn't realise the kind of manager the fans wanted, or words to that effect. I don't know who pulled your chain on this thread, but if you come out firing, be prepared to be fired back at. You went on and on about Smith......that was your choice, as it is mine to go on about Farke. At least my going on about Farke has some credence, given his record of building a team from nothing, a championship title, a rebuilding of mindset and confidence after a difficult PL season to get us a record breaking Championship title. What did Smith do for us? Edited March 18 by lake district canary 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So you can live with me continuing to tell you to move on you utter ****. Calm down dear, you'll give yourself a hernia. I said "we were all saying" because that was pretty much what it was - people telling you to let it go (about Smith) and I don't recall any support for you view. And I repeat, I was very vocal about Farke staying. I'm not going to trawl through the forum to find anything, like you've done, I've better things to do, but you directed your ire at me in this thread, so I am bound to defend it - and without the abuse you have resorted to. I've been there myself of course, being a lone voice when the majority disagree - it can be tough having certain views when most people are telling you different. But I learned to stick it out and not let it get to me - unless there was abuse involved. I've let the Farke thing go, he's at Leeds now and good luck to him - it's all water under the bridge and best not to think about it too much imo....but it still has the power to annoy if I let it - and the key is not to let it. You seem to have got yourself worked up - believe me, I've been there - it's not worth it. I say learn from it and move on - you can still have your views, even if it is just you thinking them. You don't need to have anything validated by anyone else - just have your views and don't worry what anyone else says. We're all different - nand that is a good thing.

And if they don't want to move on it's also fine. If you don't like an opinion just let it pass and dissolve. I don't think it is helpful to have a pop at others. Just my view so please don't shoot the messenger. So much for my efforts to smooth potential conflict when I first had the intimation of it coming along! I have failed miserably haven't I? I have a long record of trying to find common ground between people and I don't think I have managed it yet.🙃😉 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
