Get a grip ladies & Gents!

[wehatepalace]

It's the fact we just won a game and people are still moaning. Yes, we are not playing like we have in the past few seasons especially under Poyet, but we won. We won a game and may get a decent tie in the next round. Let's look at the positives. CMS got a goal which we can agree was needed. We kept a clean sheet. We could be Blackpool.

WOW we beat a team that finished at the arse end of the football league !

Kuszczak, upson, ward, el abd, orlandi, Spanish Dave, bridcutt, Barnes, ulloa, Hoskins, and now Buckley.........stock dale tick, Hughes tick, o'grady (who?) and we get easyjet Albion putting prices up on everything......and last two managers seem powerless to influence signings......we can all see it and it needs to change.......i feel a 5pm Friday letter to the fans from tony coming on.....

the OP is the one who needs to get a grip, we are a sinking ship and we are running out of time

 

[*Gullsworth*]

Very much this, and to the OP I say this: yes, I have very much got a grip, thank you

I agree with what a lot of posters are saying but it could change with 2-3 decent signings, a win on Saturday, a good game in the cup......who knows? It just seems to me people are losing the faith too quickly and its all doom & gloom around here. But then I suppose they want instant success and are not prepared to wait for even a couple of games.......how times have changed eh?

My feeling is there are major problems at the club ATM, just my thought and it concerns me. No moist sheets though.

A wins a win but the sale of Buckley has totally ruined it for me, that team that took teams apart with pace and verve has now gone and in place a load of plodders, entertainment is now over

 

[Seagull]

Kuszczak, upson, ward, el abd, orlandi, Spanish Dave, bridcutt, Barnes, ulloa, Hoskins, and now Buckley.

Not a bad team that. Dave would have to be right wing back with Ash sitting behind Leo & Hosk and Orlandi & Bucka out wide.

of course it could change with 2 or 3 decent signings, but as things stand we dont seem to be able to compete with clubs like Middlesbrough, that itself is a worry, as it stands weve lost Ulloa, Barnes, Bridcutt, Orlandi, Kuzsczak, Upson, Ward and likely Buckley, a year ago that could easily have been 8 of our starting XI and a great one at that. Bar Stockdale, none of the players weve brought in are as good as those that have left

But we beat them. Wolves, Ipswich and Blackpool are all out, we aren't. What do people want from tonight?

I think that I've learned to be patient and not expect instant gratification well enough since the1957/58 season! Although admittedly that season was a pretty good one for instant gratification.....still, if anyone thinks we'll pull in someone from a local park team half way through the season who will score 5 goals on the final day to secure promotion this time around they really will have to learn bit of patience!

Tonight on its own isn't the issue.

Yes we did beat them, but let's be honest, it's just papering over the cracks.
It's not even about tonight's result, it's more to the point that we are selling yet another player, with all our targets deciding to go elsewhere.
At the moment, without quite a few decent signing we will be lucky to finish mid table.

 

[Lower West Stander]

I think if any club's fans needs to be suspicious of what its board tells us its ours. Obviously the circumstances are entirely different this time but maybe we could be forgiven for being a little bit cynical?

 

[JOLovegrove]

But we won. I know it wasn't pretty but let's at least look at that as a positive. It's a start. I know we have a depleted squad that won't compete at this level but we did what we have to tonight. Remember Bloom is a fan of our team, he wants to get us up so surely he has something up his sleeve.
