O/T - Is it Possible to Refrain from Answering any Posts from IBJ?

Is that 6 full "pages" about ignoring me...lol

Bernard Manning once said that if you don't like his jokes - there's a button on the TV called the OFF button.

And for why...?

.....I quoted this phrase before - but it has merit:

"Methinks the lady doth protest too much"

I have a theory....

Many screamed for Alan Stubbs head after 13 games - and that includes many of the more astute posters.

The knob heads are just that - they struggle to express themselves within the written world so they simply strike out with insults. They are what they are and are ignored.

I have gone into great detail to explain my reason why AS shouldn't be sacked and how that was our best chance this season.

I only did this out of respect for the serious posters - expecting some understanding of my theories ( to be fair there has been a lot of support ).

I know that what I've written is reasonable and hangs together as an argument - particularly the early tactical examples of AS asking the players to "park the bus".....but the players didn't buy into it ( or not good enough ) like the QPR players have when they beat Reading. Reading having had 72% Possession.

That's just a fact. Not my opinion - just a well known football fact.

My point is I offer another view of the way those 13 games were - and pointed out that social media had a part to play in this sacking. How large a part we'll never know....but that means if I'm right and you were wrong - some on here are culpable and .....

"Do you NOT like that"!

Now that turns all this into a I'm right you're wrong topic - which are never black and white.

Bur all this bull about my opinion....makes you think !

I do apologise about repeating but that is because I offered an alternative version of reality when I read the much repeated rubbish - and there was a lot of that.

I still believe that AS would have turned it round as ( I don't care what anybody say )
Progress was being made.

TS was placed under great pressure and he panicked.....and some on here created that pressure.

Always in life "be careful of what you wish for"....and all this is better....you'll quote Warney has won matches but the team know each other now - they are match fit....and we have beaten clubs on off days.....Wigan - QPR....who played the park the bus tactics at Reading because he had to - they were woeful against us so Ollie parked the bus and to good affect.

And for those who quote ALL the dross AS brought in - they were match winners v Norwich..and Izzy was our best player by a country mile - ticker Taylor has been effective....Ball - one for the future...

Not all bad....but as some drove the guy out and are culpable....it's easier to rubbish him and me.....isn't it...!

Can anyone hear a buzzing???

[lbj]

No - 'Classic Rock' is on and it's awesome....

7 pages of dross about an opinion.....to be honest it's very old history now - it's the psychological aspects of all this that's interesting me most - however I'm old enough to know what people are.

The levels of education - and the related rhetoric on here are so typical of the population as a whole.

"Ignorance is bliss" - and there are some very happy people on here...

Typically I would never take the P155 out of the club using a cart horse - poking fun at our club.....I'll never understand that side of so called "support"....

I take that cart horse is aimed at me.
Poking fun at our club? It's aimed at Barnsley.
Get a life

7 pages of dross about an opinion.....to be honest it's very old history now - it's the psychological aspects of all this that's interesting me most - however I'm old enough to know what people are. Set your preferences to allow 30 posts per page and its only 3 pages of dross

The levels of education - and the related rhetoric on here are so typical of the population as a whole. So you are the only one on here with any degree of intelligence? If you had any level of intelligence you wouldn't carry on as though your opinion is the only one that matters

"Ignorance is bliss" - and there are some very happy people on here... I can assure you .... your ignorance is not bliss for most of the other members here

Typically I would never take the P155 out of the club using a cart horse - poking fun at our club.....I'll never understand that side of so called "support".... So people aren't allowed to have a sense of humour? Grow up Princess

I'll try to put this in a non-abusive and rational way.... yes,it is possible that the the team with the majority of possession can lose a game, BUT usually the team with the majority of possession wins, or at least draws, so it is not a good strategy to deliberately have less possession than the opposition (have a look at the match stats from our division next weekend).... and if you saying that the "minority of possession" tactic was not a deliberate strategy by Stubbs, but just a side effect of the players being so useless - who signed most of those players?
Also I don't believe that they were just about to ""click" when Stubbs was sacked - if anything they were getting worse.... plus it was awful to watch. It has improved a bit under Warney, although I admit not much, but at least we now look like we can score a few goals

[kentmillerman]

Seriously. What is the point. We have suffered drivel for many a year, (and yes I am guilty), just move on. Please.
