Most of us go along to enjoy a day/night out, support the team and be entertained. Loads of you hated the entertainment last season.

How is this season shaping up, if you put aside the performance on Saturday. Most had been raving about the entertainment pre last weekend. Massive swing against Hyypia after Saturday. Now the dust has settled, can you say you are enjoying this season so far? relegation battles can be as good as playoff challenging..allegedly

Saturday was a real downer. Before then have to say yes but don't think I would enjoy a relegation battle. Prefer mid table mediocrity with entertainment!! Too much to wish for?

I enjoyed Oscar grinding out results with barely anyone fit to choose from last year. This season we've been awful - I don't find it exciting see my team charging around the pitch with no sensible purpose

Exactly this.

Didn't enjoy Saturday at all. Enjoyed Cardiff very much.

It's been a fantastic season. The sea is still warm enough (16C) to go in everyday and the air temperature warm enough for next spring's cauliflowers to be ready to pick next week. Looking forward to winter as well. Four weeks trekking up to Everest Base Camp followed by 4 weeks in Kerala.

Makes me think back to how gutted I was when he left and how I would have loved him to put his own squad together this season. I guess it would have all gone pear shaped anyway when he had his heart scare, but it WOULD have been interesting to see who we would have signed under Oscar.

Severely cramped set of voting options. Enjoying this eason marginally more than last seasonr's timid shit, so was sort of forced to vote yes. Not convincingly tho.

Not really no.

The style of football is boring. Too many long balls, too many wasted punts at goal from thirty yards out, too much "to me, to you" between our centre backs. To top off the boring football we're not even grinding out results like we did last season.

Still, its a day out on the beer with my dad so there's that to enjoy.

I'm going yes. For now. We've largely played quite well and I do genuinely believe we've been unlucky to not win more. Some bad luck is undoubtedly our own doing however, but i would settle for a "you score three and we'll score four" gameplan.

Saturday was very poor though and I don't want to see too much more of that.

This. Three more goals and five more points and I'd be very happy with this season.

I was up until last Saturday and fully expected us to be able to turn it round and shoot up the table but now I'm not so sure anymore :down:

Not really no. Last year was rubbish but at least we tended to win. Now its just depressing.

I have seen worse (more boring) at the Amex. Just a bit frustrated though. If it goes on like this, I would get downhearted. The lack of enthusiasm is a bit catching.

The team seems to have ideas, but just not the technique to execute them properly, like shooting.

My reckoning is any change of style will see us relegated. A few tweaks will help. This is second tier football though. The players from both sides usually miss their chances. Just not skillful enough. In the third tier there are more goals cause the defenders make more boobs.

I thought we played badly against Bolton, at least as badly as the other games. Just got the rub of the green. I wasn't too hopeful after that match.

ask the same question after a couple of wins and note the difference in the poll.
