following on Mr Gages point, Sonlyme, you attempt to hold your self up as the voice of reason, trying to put those that are critical of the manager as rebels without a clue. Your Victor Meldrew post was the worst attempt at humour I have seen on here, you got kicked off the other site because they didnt get it. hmmm

It's been a really fractious season, pretty much from the get go.

I can see the merit in those suggesting we keep it all together and try to remain positive, I genuinely can. I don't think it's an unreasonable suggestion at all. That doesn't mean that supporters are in any way to blame for results, or some of GH's more curious antics since he took the job though. To even hint at that seems odd to me, like blaming punters for a horse being slow (or having a shite jocky).

I don't think the powers that be will move GH on until at least the summer (and maybe not even then). My hope is that in the home games that count, we see enough positives so as not to see a repeat of the pre and post match Wolves entertainment. If we do  bomb though and paying spectators offer criticism, they're perfectly entitled to do so. Something would be seriously remiss if they just lapped it up and accepted it.
