Not really, its his site, he can ask what he likes. And i like using the forum, so if i go over the line he can tell me so, rather than a group of posters who dont like negative thoughts in their life. |
It beggars belief that you still think the problem is everyone else not you. |  | | |

No, not everyone, just the usual posters like yourself.
You'll see a different in the way people respond, j2 for example, Pointofblue etc didn't agree with my thoughts, but the way they replied was brilliant, didn't agree, didn't need to be offensive to show they disagreed either. [Post edited 9 Dec 2024 13:38]

I think the issue is some of us, and I will admit it myself, are perhaps seeing it from a Football Manager game point of view. Let's just change the style of play from Positive to Balanced. Let's just add another midfielder. Let's just play through the middle rather than using the wings. That will help.
Just because we cannot see a visible change, a switch formation or certain substitutions, doesn't mean McKenna is not trying everything not to win games. But he is trying with the limitations of what he has available in terms of talent and fitness. For all we know he tried three at the back and/or three in central midfield in training and we struggled badly, so he doesn't want to use it in a match scenario, particularly when we're winning.
As others have said about yesterday, other than Delap being absolutely shattered, from the 70th minute mark, it looked like Bournemouth had shot their bolt. We weren't on top but had enough control to limit their chances to almost nothing. The first two changes came six minutes before the equaliser. He's been criticised before for being too attacking in certain scenarios, but he has also been criticised for being too defensive.
I personally would like to see changes to the way we set up. I think our current system has been found out. But just because McKenna disagrees doesn't mean he's not trying to get everything out of this squad to achieve a win. And that allegation is what is annoying people now, more than the OP. |
I do see where you're coming from, and indeed that could lead to thoughts like i've had on the subject.
I just want to see something a bit out of the usual from KM, we know he tweaks positions etc, and he's very good at it, I just want to see something that makes me think ok he realises the normal can't work with this squad this specific season, what else can be done to help us win more games. | |

I'll tell you what lying is. McKenna "signed a new deal for compensation for town and he's off in the summer regardless."
No. Not true. All in your head, but you say it as if it's fact. |
Agree, but it’s pointless arguing with him - might as well try and nail a jelly to the wall.
Only got to read his ‘explanation’ of “I wasn't being rude about KM despite what people are thinking”
re his comment “ He certainly isn't managing like he wants to make sure we are winning games. It's like development comes before winning and he's back to being a youth coach.”
to see his shape-shifting eel-wriggling to try and get himself off the hook. [Post edited 9 Dec 2024 15:30]

Have this argument all the time with you flash. I didn't write it as factual I wrote as how I feel about it. Covered by the fact I wrote "I think that"
You know that. Well you should because as I say we've discussed this before. Funnily enough you said the same thing about the car accident post when all I said was what I'd read online not what I was saying it was. [Post edited 9 Dec 2024 13:12]

I like you Frimmers, despite what it might seem. And I'll always defend your right to say what you want to say. I certainly wouldn't call for you to be banned. But the way you 'feel' about stuff, particularly on football matters, is almost always wrong. I kind of admire your ability to shrug it off and then post again (and again, and again) on football matters when you've got them wrong so many times.
Do you never pause and think maybe football commentary is not for me? I tend to think, if I'm getting downarrows constantly on a thing, that maybe I'm out of step. Or perhaps you're really arrogant and think you can see stuff that the rest of us (and McKenna) don't see?
Thing is, you've been proven wrong on sooooo many occasions.
Yeah, McKenna's not perfect, but I tend to think he's doing close to the best he could do with the hand he's been dealt. If you don't understand a certain thing he's doing, I tend to think that's on you rather than him being wrong. And the fact that McKenna's only got 1 win doesn't make anything you say right. |  |

My OP and the replies since by myself wasn't about being right or wrong flash its about how I feel about it.
That's my right as is yours to call me out on it that's fine, I shrug it off because I'm comfortable with how I see things in my way. As we've discussed before how I see things isn't the same as others. Never has been never will be. I'm cool with that. I don't really get the desire from some to get offensive and personal on a forum tho. It's a bit odd when you can just ignore what someone has written. | |

As frustrating as the season has been there's nobody I would rather have in charge at Town right now than KM, I honestly don't think anyone else would have done any better in the circumstances. It's fine to question the odd decision he makes, but I don't think it's fair or accurate at all to claim he's "massively fked" anything at all in his time here. |  |

As a relatively new poster I think the reaction to this has been a bit silly. This is a football forum, no?
People are going to have different opinions on things and if others can't handle that, then maybe being on a football forum isn't in their best interests. [Post edited 9 Dec 2024 17:24]

I suppose, well for my part at least, I feel like any kind of negativity is detrimental to the club and what they're trying to do. Obviously people can have a moan, but I generally think positivity is a good thing. And if the negativity got back to the club, that wouldn't help either, as you saw with the Burns stuff and his family.
I just think it needs to be tempered a bit and people need to be realistic. Maybe it's an age thing. I don't know how old you are but you spit stuff out like and angry young man, which I would certainly have been like back in the day (although there wasn't the internet to share it on, thank god.) These days (despite what it might seem on here at times) I'm more relaxed and groovy.
What I'm saying is you can rant at a game, or at the TV, but you don't have to jot down every mad thought on here and hit send. Well you can, it's a free world, but that doesn't mean you always should. And you do seem to have more mad thoughts than most! | |

I appreciate that flash. But that's why I've asked for examples as I've felt this season my posts have been quite balanced tbh. I've not even had any issues this season. Our discussions are light hearted but they weren't around negative thoughts. I've In a whole enjoyed the season as frustrating as it's been too.
I've not had any post game moans at my in game posts. And my ft thoughts have always been balanced this season. So honestly apart from this one thread. I don't see what the issues been.
Is it a bad thread. Yes. It's gone on and on for no reason other than me having to defend myself again which no other poster has to do. No ones even discussed the post they didn't agree with for 5 pages. It's just relentless pot shots to follow the others.
So again. I genuinely believe I've been alot better this season. So I'm asking everyone again who have enjoyed the pile on. Show me where I've been relentlessly negative and i can hold my hand up and apologise for it. Because I don't think I have been. | |

I've not been on much this season or last compared to the last 20+ years, but if you think a few months of NOT finger farting relentlessly without really giving a hoot means other regular posters will simply forget what you're like on here, then sorry, it doesn't work like that. |  |

Not on me to tell people what to forget. But that's a rather sad way to see life imo when you're holding grudges from a year ago about what someone wrote about a football team. | |

No, as I literally just wrote, it's nothing to do with grudges. Not for me and plenty of others, demonstrably. If there were some kind of grudge I'd attack everything you wrote, which I never have. Weird choice of words. | |

It would certainly be nice if everyone could take a breath and stop having a go at each other, even if Frimmers’ fingers work quicker than his brain  . Nothing wrong with that either - most of us have posted nonsense or been a bit over-zealous at one time or another. |  |

It's not a grudge you silly sausage. You've instigated the pile-on in this thread because you've reverted to form. Literally no other member of the community is/was waiting for you to post all this nonsense about McKenna checking out and having his compensation sorted, to have an excuse to have a go at you.
It could be classed as a grudge if you were being attacked in the period prior to this thread when in your own words you have not been negative. I have no insight into that but would love to see evidence of it, if you were bothered. | |

It’s very difficult to do with him as he’s so ubiquitous with his posts that the board becomes unreadable if you put him on ignore.
And personally, I find I can’t just ignore someone constantly criticising the club and players after the last 2 seasons - it’s in my DNA to defend it and push back against any attacks on KM’s integrity, the latter being what’s happened on this thread. [Post edited 9 Dec 2024 20:38]
