The problems at our club, (yes we might never agree but we do support the same club) are not the fans, you must see there are some real problems and all we get from Evans is "jam tomorrow" promises, but as each game goes by there is very little evidence of improvement in performances or results. I hope we are in the top 10 and only a few points off a top six by Christmas, but I am not seeing anything to suggest that will be achieved. You clearly see it differently, we all see things in different ways.
    I can read perfectly well. I haven't blamed the fans for anything , I said the way they carried off at the end was disgraceful. It was dogs abuse., and must be making them nervous to get on the ball and make a mistake,, get someone to read for you

    I suspect that the abuse SE gives to certain players is much worse than any the fans give to them. Open your eyes Don the players are not playing for him. He needs to take responsibility for the poor shows. They are his players, they are playing to his tactics of the big boot. It is piss poor and the worst football I have seen from rufc for many a year on par with the bergara and George kerr years which incidentally dragged us down to league 2.

    We cannot keep humping up the ball to forwards who aren't capable of winning the ball in the air or holding the ball up front to bring other players into play. Hugill spends most of his time on his arse not in the air and jch is not fit enough or good enough to do it either. Our midfield is poor. Odoffin is a big lad but you wouldn't know it because ge disappears from the game. Powell tries at least but not skilful enough and his dead ball kicks are poor. SE said he had a wand of a left foot like cringle. If only. Tiehi decent on ball but offers nowt going forward. Kelly? Been a good player but not going to do it consistently now. Defence very weak in the air otherwise not bad.

    Who cares alot of managers are the same .. its passion, look at the Huddersfield manger at Rotherham he got sent off ... the list is endless of mangers who get booked / sent off , Steve is a winner .. as proven . if you don't want to see some heart and passion . Go and watch the bowls.This is what you said about Evans ban for constant foul & abusive language towards Officials. Does this not apply to the fans heart & passion then.

    You can't say basically the players are crĂ*p and they are not playing for Evans. That implies even if Evans is sacked the players are still crĂ*p so what's the point in sacking Evans now?.

    Never said the players were crap rather playing to crap hoof ball tactics. Another manager would get far more out of this bunch of players I would suspect. They are just being told what to do and sticking with it. How many times do managers tell you to do summat in stupid ways and you know it doesn't work but you do it because you are doing as you are told. I have had plenty of ****e off management in my working life but have just got on with it plus it has not stopped me thinking the management are clue less and a bunches of tosspots.maybe the players think the same. Hardly a tool of motivation methinks.

    I do actually think we as fans are a bit of the problem. Our home support is always quiet. Every time I visit away grounds or even hear them on tv they always sing more than us.

    I would say Barnsley sang more than us on Friday (I was sat on the halfway line) and we were the away team.

    It always looks like a large proportion of our supporters are part of the older generation which doesn’t help with the noise when they are sat at the top of the north stand.

    It is slightly worrying when thinking about our fan base in 15 years.

    Rightly or wrongly these issues could have an impact on the performances of our players and the way they view our club.

    It is also not helpful when the first noise someone makes is slagging off a player.

    Any good manager will not be prepared to work under our perpetual tight budget that shows no ambition.That's why we finished up with SE.

    You said in he post above players are not good enough.
    Forwards are not good in the air and cannot hold the ball up. Jch is not good enough.
    You said our midfield is poor, oddofin disappeared from games and Powell is not skillful enough. Tithe offers nothing going forward. Our defence is weak in the air which is a league one defenders job 90% of the time.
    You said the players are crĂ*p, you just used more words than was needed 😉
