KM has won 6 out of 8 games which includes 5 away games and we are keeping clean sheets.
People are moaning about the rotation of the forward players, I think the reason being is KM has been given a free ride to the end of the season and if we make the play offs then it is a massive bonus. The defence hasn’t changed because all the players will be there next season (hopefully) however regarding our attacking players - Bonne, jackson, norwood, aluko, celina are either out of contract or the loan has finished - so KM is rotating to see what he has next season. It’s amazing that we have been winning.
Now we are within touching distance, i think he will now start playing the strongest team nearly every game.
Does anyone else agree |  | | |  |

Who's moaning? KM clearly knows what he's doing, people can still have opinions on who should play, where and how often out of the remains of the legions of forward players accumulated last summer by Cook and Ashton.
FWIW I think he's rotated too much and has probably got a bit lucky, didn't really see the point in throwing a start to Jackson, and my view is that we really need either Bonne, Pigott or Norwood to start more or less every game as a solo striker with two of the good creative players in behind - Celina, Chaplin and Aluko - these could be rotated a bit but my preference is for Chaplin and Aluko because of workrate and tracking back - to build up some continuity and confidence.
Generally part of the problem now and for Cook has just not that much to choose between lots of those options. [Post edited 9 Feb 2022 14:10]

He's just riding on Cookie's coat tails. The team has gelled and KM is taking the credit for it. |  |

I've come up with a theory. It's yet to be peer reviewed but I really feel i'm on to something.
The internet attracts a lot of cocks.
I know, it's revolutionary but I think it's worth investigating. |  |

18 pts out of 24 pts equated to a whole season is 103.5 pts!!
More than happy with McKenna seeing as this is not his group of players. |  |

90% of the message board at Half Time yesterday was moaning.
For example. |  | | |

Agreed.
A lot of people who were very vocal and negative during the game yesterday haven't been around today - wonder why? Losers. |  |

While I agree, we're very nearly at the point where there's more people moaning about people moaning than actually moaning TBF. |  |

Because of the imbalance between home and away games in the last 8 played, I make it over 110 points if we extrapolate this McKenna-form over an entire season...
| P | W | D | L | F | A | GD | Pts |
Since Kieran McKenna took charge:
Home: | 3 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 4 | 1 | 3 | 9 |
Away: | 5 | 3 | 0 | 2 | 7 | 3 | 4 | 9 |
Total: | 8 | 6 | 0 | 2 | 11 | 4 | 7 | 18 |
Extrapolation to 46 games (23H, 23A):
Home: | 23 | 23 | 0 | 0 | 30.7 | 7.7 | 23.0 | 69.0 |
Away: | 23 | 13.8 | 0 | 9.2 | 32.2 | 13.8 | 18.4 | 41.4 |
Total: | 46 | 36.8 | 0 | 9.2 | 62.9 | 21.5 | 41.4 | 110.4 |
(Yes, I know - I'm bored/boring) |  |

For example. |
For the 1375th time, people reacting in real time to what’s going on in a game doesn’t necessarily equal negativity. | |

I`m not saying they can or can`t, but if people are moaning pre, post, or during a game, then they are moaning, if people are praising, then that is what they are doing. to say they aren`t is wrong | | | |

To say someone has kicked the ball out several times isn't a moan it's an observation. To say someone is having a bad half I'd also an observation not a moan.
There has been alot of discussion, minimal moans. There's more threads and posts about moans than there were Actual moans. | |

Feel free to look at it in that way, I will look at it as moaning, sorry, we will agree to disagree | | | |

There’s been a bit of negativity on here because we’ve ‘laboured’ through games (my interpretation of what I think the main grumble has been).
Whilst strictly true at times, I think that does is a disservice to us. Even when we’re no threat we often control the game and don’t look likely to concede. There was no way we were losing the last two matches for example, even if we didn’t run up a cricket score. People seem to think we’re going to roll teams over if they’re lower in the table. So a little bit of unrealistic expectations I think.
We’re playing well in the main. If we win all our remaining games 1-0 with 70% possession and not too many scares at the back that will certainly do me. |  |
