Interview with Bart on 11:32 - Feb 6 by LankHenners | That 16th place was pretty clearly a blip against the other top half finishes. Besides, whether finishing 16th is a good job or not isn’t even the point you made in the first place. |
I was just responding to your "good job" point. The worst position in 60 years can't in any way be described as a "good job." I would also dispute that the 16th place "was clearly a blip". If you look at what's come since it's actually more of an indication of where we were heading. If anything the 12th place finish was a blip. Apart from that year, every year we finished lower than the previous one. | ![](/images/avatars/20632.gif) |

Interview with Bart on 11:36 - Feb 6 by BrixtonBlue | Answer the question: Where have I said anywhere that it was ONLY down to our mentality? Where have I said anywhere that it ISN'T a little more complex? |
So if it is a little more complex, why did you seek to belittle someone and say they were "wrong"? Opinions can't be wrong as you have told us. | ![](/images/avatars/455.gif) |

Interview with Bart on 11:34 - Feb 6 by BrixtonBlue | Nope. I'm sticking by it. We've had a losing mentality for years and I've given strong evidence of why I believe this. Without Mick we'd have been down sooner. His pragmatic football was a stay of execution but the downward trend has existed for a long time. |

I said he was wrong for saying we didn't have a losing mentality. I didn't say anything about any other factors that have contributed to our demise, which is why I guess you won't answer the question. You've ascribed something to me I didn't say. | ![](/images/avatars/20632.gif) |

Where have I moved goalposts? My position has remained the same all along. You have disagreed with everything I've posted on here for years. If I said there's a Y in the day you'd argue the toss with me about it. Think it's time you went on ignore. | ![](/images/avatars/20632.gif) |

When Mick came in we were bottom and had previously finished 15th We then went Higher Higher Higher Lower Lower Higher So every year we finished lower was 2 years out of 6, one of which we finished one place lower in the table | ![](/images/avatars/9014.gif) |

You didn’t though, as you were making the point that we had a losing mentality in Mick’s last season. Whereas in Mick’s last season we finished in the top half and climbed 4 places in the table, which by your own metrics must have meant we had a winning mentality | ![](/images/avatars/7468.gif) |

You’ve been talking about ‘years and years’, so was just trying to think of a time to start this? Or did you just literally mean 2 years, one of which we finished higher? Or 3 years where we dropped one place and finished higher? | ![](/images/avatars/9014.gif) |

I've said (several times) in the thread. Since being in the playoffs it's been a downhill trend. That's 5 years. | ![](/images/avatars/20632.gif) |

I've shown my evidence of my belief that we've had a losing mentality for years. The trend has been downwards for years. Bart has said we had a losing mentality. I rest my case. | ![](/images/avatars/20632.gif) |

Interview with Bart on 09:56 - Feb 6 by C_HealyIsAPleasure | Your argument doesn’t make sense, you don’t automatically have a losing mentality just because you finished lower in the league. In fact by your logic we rediscovered a winning mentality in 2017/18 as we finished higher in the league than the season before Teams with losing mentalities lose nearly every week, not finish in the top half |
i dont think we had a losing mentality or do i think we had a winning mentality otherwise we would have reached the promised land. we were one of the longest standing teams in the championship, so i think we had a comfortable mentality | ![](/images/avatars/13724.gif) |

As someone who rarely posts, so has no personal issue with yourself. You are talking utter nonsense. We did not have 'years and years' of a losing mentality. We had a season where we made the play-offs (scraped the play-offs, just to keep you happy), followed by a few seasons of mostly top half finishes. Still better than anything we had experienced under the previous 2 managers. Bart clearly says in the article that moods dropped after Mick left, then dropped further shortly after Hurst arrived at which point a losing mentality started to set in. Which, regrettably, Lambert wasn't able to fix. You have since changed your stance to 'downward trajectory' which is a slightly better way of describing our form after the play-off season. But you seem to be trying to pin more blame on Mick for our current position than Lambert. And whilst we were relegated by Hurst long before PL took over, he is to blame for our questionable performances this season, for which people are right to question if he is the right man for the job. | ![](/images/avatars/10340.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
