Forest lower in the league than us... 18:09 - Jan 7 with 6473 viewshenryblue

...but just scored 4 goals in a win over Arsenal. Their fans have just witnessed a game they’ll never forget and is one they’ll tell their families about for years to come. This could never ever be achieved by a side managed by Mick McCarthy, FACT. That’s what’s wrong with our club whilst it’s managed by him, the negativity and playing not to lose and his love for players that can’t play football but are proper blokes and hardworking will never leave you with any real memories. It might land you an undeserved result here and there which you’ll celebrate and quickly forget. Yesterday was an utter embarrassment and the whole club should be ashamed. When it counts in the big games under Mick, in derbies and live games, cup games and big crowds with the chance to draw in a new audience we have failed on pretty much every occasion to win. He absolutely has to leave our club at the end of the season at the latest or we will witness no surprises or excitement for as long as he’s our manager. And that’s what footballs about isn’t it?

A crowd of 27,000 is more likely to engender passion than one of 12,000, especially when you're playing one of the supposed "big boys", albeit a near reserve version.


I would hope that players and a manager being paid good money would have a passion and a will to win , regardless of whether it's a12,000 or 27,000 crowd .

If you think we need a crowd of 20,000 + to inspire the players we're doomed .

Did the manager even try to save the game - he brought on one forward and played him in midfield .

So the manager was happy with the performance .............not sure the fans would feel the same .

I agree with the sentiment but you along with some other critics lose all credibility with lines like "it might land you an undeserved result here and there..."

Why is every victory undeserved but every loss written in the stars ffs?

And again, for the sake of clarity I AM NOT A HAPPY FOOKING CLAPPER.


In your desire to find the OP just one more example of gloating at defeat you miss his point.
There is a reason why something, even if it seems like one more moan, gets 19 uppies.
It was the lively comparison with the Notts Forest experience that struck home.

Yes, using the word "undeserved" for a cautious victory, as opposed, for instance, to "unexpected" was hyperbole. But in majoring on a stylistic point you miss the picture he painted that captured the weekend heartache.
