| That was the perfect game to illustrate the need for patience on 12:48 - Nov 26 by bluesym | Really enjoyed the win,loved celebrating the goals with my son, but i think its totally fair for people to not be encouraged or worried about that first half performance. Of course some people are extreme in their negativity, but same could be said about some people in their positivity. I dont think there is anything wrong in people discussing a poor first half in a less than enthused manner. |
Once again, nothing against people not being encouraged or discussing things in a less than enthused manner. It's the extremists who need a dose of reality and patience. |  |

| That was the perfect game to illustrate the need for patience on 13:09 - Nov 26 by djgooder | I agree. Am surprised people are against a real time discussion. It’s easy to say just be patient when you have the benefit of hindsight. It is just people discussing the game. We were utterly unconvincing during the game. We are all glad we won I am sure but none should be ecstatic about our performance. |
More straw manning. No-one's against discussion. No-one's ecstatic about our performance. And none of this is with the benefit of hindsight. Some of us have been saying be patient all season (and in fact for years!) |  |

| That was the perfect game to illustrate the need for patience on 13:22 - Nov 26 by FrimleyBlue | I think the confusion is more about what the op is in reference to. I felt when it was posted it was about last nights specific game. But it appears its grown to a general thing. On the specific game as I mentioned up the thread most forum posts ignoring the chat room were about the happenings on the pitch itself more than forecasting the end result of said game so I didnt see that patience was needed. As a general op I guess like many things in life some people are patient some aren't. There are levels to posts tho. Having a tut tut at stuff fine. But some of the recent name calling of km etc is over a line. |
There's nothing confusing about the OP. "That was the perfect game (specific to the game) to illustrate the need for patience (overall, general thing)." I wouldn't have thought many were confused by it. |  |

since the blackburn game, soton, preston, leicester, charlton, blunts and pompey have failed to beat hull at their home, so it's a decent scalp |  |

I wasn’t straw manning. Just saying blokes having a discussion via the internet at a point in a game isn’t bad. It just is. I am sure the same discussion was being had amongst the fans that made it there, or amongst people watching it together on tv. Don’t mean people don’t have patience. I have been a town fan a long time, as I am sure many have. We’ve seen good and bad. I have high levels of patience and I am a big fan of McKenna and the team. If anything I am more likely to be accused of being a happy clapper when things are going bad for us, ie through the Evan’s era for example. I often give the benefit of the doubt. Doesn’t mean I don’t comment when things aren’t going well, and that I don’t celebrate when they are going well. I never Shouted abuse at our own players etc. but I might be heard saying ‘oh dear’ at a misplaced pass. |  | |  |

Yeah, but that is straw manning, because no-one's saying "blokes just having a discussion" is bad. |  |

I think it was as shown imo by a few responses to you from people about in game discussions. Patience wasn't needed imo during the game yesterday as I said most moans were about the speed and passing not the prospect of losing the game because of it just people wanting it to be better. But someone mentioned chat room so if you mean them then thats cool. As a wider point youre spot on in general. BTW. It may also be me who mis understood your op along with others. So I dont want you to feel im picking on your op. [Post edited 26 Nov 16:27]

| That was the perfect game to illustrate the need for patience on 16:26 - Nov 26 with 167 views | BiGDonnie | Agreed. People expect us to be 4-0 up in twenty minutes and start raging when we're not. Hull hadn't lost at home, were second top scorers, yet I can't remember any clear cut chances for them. First half wasn't great but we were still comfortable. |  |

What I , and some others, object to (and it's just our opinions) is some of the hysteria before the game has started or even half done. And boy, as an example, the people who accused KmK of claiming a fake injured to Cajuste to 'hide' the real reason for his substitution. Like the moon landing, I assume they also believe the medical boot he was in at the end of the game was faked? So rather than be patient to see what the real situation is, these negative numpties pile in. It's just a relentless campaign of negativity to support their narrative at the slightest opportunity. That's just one example the the often unfair hysteria we see on here. You'll see plenty of others by just scanning several posts from yesterday evening. |  | |  |

| That was the perfect game to illustrate the need for patience on 12:26 - Nov 26 by The_Flashing_Smile | It's not just being wise after the event though - some of us have had patience and remained positive all season. And even though that first half wasn't great, we understand there are two teams out there, we're away from home at a side who hadn't been beaten at home, and we're trying things that aren't always working. But rather than losing our sh!t like some on here, we tweaked things, dominated the second half and won comfortably. That's football. We see it time and again where people go too early with the vitriol. And even when we win comfortably you try to make excuses for the opposition. They didn't just collapse by themselves, we forced it. You even contradict youself by admitting we could have had another couple - so it could have been even more comfortable! If football gives people mental health issues that they might kick the cat rather than rant on here, then that's a bit of a concern TBH. I scream and shout at the TV/laptop sometimes, but I don't feel the need to kick anything or splurge those embarrassing thoughts on the internet. The ones just about the game aren't the worst - that would be the ones who extrapolate onto McKenna, the recruitment, the season as a whole. That's more than just comments/asking questions during a game. |
Clearly you are a glass half full guy and I admit mine is half empty, we just see things in different ways which is fine. I give my all at home games where it counts and not one of the boo boys. Not knocking them btw they pay their money. |  |

| That was the perfect game to illustrate the need for patience on 23:12 - Nov 25 by The_Flashing_Smile | It's not about internet points (whatever they are). It's, as the title says, having a bit of patience. Not losing you're shizzle too early. That was a very tricky away game - Hull's first defeat at their place. And we came through it very comfortably in the end. Despite all the wailing from some (and I don't just mean this game) we're 3 points off the auto spots with a game in hand. |
And your point is what? That by being patient on an internet forum means we are more likely to get a positive result!! The purpose of an internet forum / match chat room is so fellow fans can express their views. Doesn’t seem to bizarre for some to have expressed the view that we didn’t play very well in the first half. If you don’t like reading peoples opinions who are not the same as yours I would suggest you don’t go on a fans forum or find some echo chamber on another social media site. |  | |  |

No, no-one else misunderstood my OP, only you. There's nothing to misunderstand, it's reall, really clear. Patience was clearly needed, because with some of the ranting and raving on here people were suggesting McKenna doesn't know what he's doing/mocking the idea of resting players (even before kick off, actually). And yet if they'd been patient, it was proven to be correct (i.e. a fresh Philogene coming on). I suspect we'll have to agree to disgree though, as you're one of the chief 'shoot now, ask questions later' posters on here (and I love you for it!) |  |

You are right. That is all ridiculous, in my opinion. Think I understood the OP as questioning people’s patience that connected on a lacklustre first half. Problem is we all have opinions, and they all differ. |  | |  |
