    i think its more frustration that anything else, frustration from playing his favorites i.e. connolly and pawlett. Strange formations and negative play.

    Does anyone want rid of him, i dont think. Pissed off, aye, totally...

    IMO, absolutely happy to get behind Robbie. I agree that he is prone to tinkering with the side on occasion and it sometimes seem to hamper us.

    Overall though, he has done the business this season, and by some margin, as it stands.

    The injury to Nicky Clarke is a big blow to the side. And we obviously have a few niggles elsewhere that need to be got over.

    But we should get the likes of Appere and McMullan back soon.

    Certainly in my case the posts aren't anti Neilson. Care to clarify where there are anti Neilson? You seem to want everyone to say everything is fandabbydozy and stfup!

    Its not our fn job to identify transfer targets mate. Plus, no one is calling for Robbie to go, we're discussing why he doesn't learn.

    I never said you were calling for a change in manager but you surely cant deny there is a definate anti neilson vibe developing. I dont understand when anyone says they think things are going ok that it automatically means they think everything is perfect or fandabbydozyOf course there have been poor games & we have scraped through some but we are currently in the first division with players that are here because they probably lack the consistency to perform at a top level week in week out. Some of them will probably improve with a move up the leagues & others wont make the grade. I just feel that some of the criticism is over the top. Lets get out of this league (hopefully) then we should see an upgrade in player with hopefully an improvement in quality & consistency of performance.

    Don't want rid of him, just want him to stop ****ing about with personnel & tactics. Five different formations in almost as many weeks. Ditching players who are in-form to bring in his favourites, who have proven over an entire season that they are ****e. Moving in-form players out of position to accommodate others. I've said before, round pegs, round holes. It's not rocket science.

    What you're forgetting is that United fans aren't mugs. They know good football when they see it. And the niggle is that that despite the league position they're not seeing it consistently.

    Not been on since yesterday... Lol 11 pages after the first league defeat since October and first at home of the season .. A bad one as it's Arbroath of course but still, I'm over it

    We have two weeks now to address things which is a positive allows some injuries to clear and start another run to the finish line, i have every faith we will bounce back just as we did after our defeats in October.. we are going for a 7th consecutive away win in the league when we go to Alloa,we are 17 pts clear, life is good..

    Strengthening for next season we can look at in May (although I'm sure that we'll be getting looked at RN and Asghar already)

    You are over it because you were not there!

    Yeas we are 17 points clear, but like ive already said, ICT will have 2 games in hand with 2 games against us to go. That there is 12 points, and i for one aint accepting this league is won until the maths add up!
