A tackle from Hourihane.

Surely a sign that's it's nearly the end of days!

I think I saw a frog land on my lawn from a cloud

2 corners from our free kick specialist both don’t beat the first man and how many useless free kicks today?

if it really is true that certain players were told they were going to be surplus to requirements in January then it was the most staggeringly inept piece of man management ever.

A CEO stating on national radio that promotion this season wasn't a necessity doesn't set the aspirational bar very high.  I wonder if that has been a factor in altering the winning mindset inside the club.

From the day MON left I can't actually recall a 'winning mindset' at the club. I also think the often trotted out quote regarding promotion not being a necessity has been mistaken for a lack of ambition whereas I think the comment was made to calm any fears of financial problems if we don't go up this year. So far the powers that be have stopped us from going bust, given the manager they inherited a reasonable shot, appointed the guy so many fans wanted and are now giving him a reasonable shot. Cherry picking certain quotes to back up our current frustration regarding results is unfair in my opinion.

Point accepted.  I just don't think it was a particularly helpful comment because if fans can interpret it in one of two ways, you can bet those on the playing side have done as well.
