There is nothing wrong with that. In fact it's a good thing to hear a variety of contrasting opinions.

But please, for the good of the board, let's keep to the time-honoured tradition of making a point and backing it up with the evidence as you see it, and arguing your point, rather than making it personal and creating two opposing factions.

Now it's left to our own to be the canaries in the coal mine with the inevitable accusations of not being "a real fan" for failing to join in with the happy clapping and unquestioning adoration for the people who "saved our club" purely out of love for us very special fans that other clubs apparently don't have.
I wouldn’t accuse anybody of not being a real fan. Although, my opinion, there are some who appear to want to negatively pick away at anything the club do. I used the Nemane example in my post above. How can anyone suggest he was a waste of shirt after less than 70 minutes of football is beyond me.

Durham comes across as one of the most negative posters. However, he posted yesterday evening that he follows Notts home & away, but only supports the players when at a CD match. Not that he’s asked for it or needs it, but he has my respect for that.

I don’t think I’m a happy clapper or nodding dog. But I do believe I’m realistic in my expectations. Some may say I’m easily pleased.
