It's going to be a season of tedious 'fans' 23:06 - Nov 4 with 8788 viewsjasondozzell

Moaning at every opportunity, delighting in having a pop at players and KM and then joining in the promotion celebrations at the end and saying 'never in doubt I love this team'.

And a season where it's not plausible for fans to follow a performance with some personal thoughts without threads being created to show how some are super fans.


Look we dont know how this season is gonna end.

We all hope promotion. Imo the minimum requirement

We are going through a very mixed phase of results/performances. We dont recognise the team going out on the pitch and there's not really a trust in upcoming results.

There will be joys there will be lows. But as annoying as boo posts are. The anti boo posts are similar

Here's to a typical football season. We were lucky as fans with 23/24 now we are a big fish in a small pond and that comes with massive and minimum expectations.

It’s a spectator sport with passionate fans - who would have thought fans would get upset at watching players passing back to the keeper on 96 minutes - strange hey.

We have criminally over spent on players and have now created a weight of expectation in most games because of it - every game like this just ends up boosting the confidence of the opposition and draining ours regardless of what McKenna says - some of the players attitudes are already showing and creating friction amongst team mates which will get worse before it gets better .

QFT

You should have heard the numpties surrounding me in the SAR tonight. New faces, impatient as fvck and incredibly vocal about it.

Very angry young men (relative to me and the wife) too.

It was quite tedious by the end of the evening too.

Almost as tedious as posters like you that can't stand any opinions or criticism of performances.

We drew 1-1 with Watford and we are outside the playoffs in November, with a ridiculously expensive squad. I hate to break it you but there will be some frustrations when we don't beat those kind of teams at home.

We will know a lot more in January. I heard we were better this evening and a 7 point week will be fine but we need to obviously win against these sides on our own patch. Two points from Derby, Charlton and Watford at home against similar kind of opponents won't cut it come May.

Last season
Fans can’t moan, can’t compete financially with other teams

This season
Fans can’t moan because we might get promoted even though we’ve got one of the most expensive sides in the division’s history

McKenna isn't immune from criticism, I'm not as annoyed tonight as I was witj Charlton

We showed Watford more respect because they look a more dangerous outfit in fairness

We may look back at this one as a decent point in the end. Yes we should have been winning it but it was a better performance than Charlton where we capitulated under less pressure to a less talented team frankly

At least they take the trouble to post win or lose as opposed to only appearing after a loss or failure to win by a boatload and looking at nothing but negatives.

One or two were very silent after Saturday. Perhaps they were unwell. Good to see they are better now.

I don't get why people have an issue with 'moaning' during/after the match on here. A post represents someone's thought process at that moment in time. Why would people be happy with the money spent and not even being top six?

Part of the issue is this is not a team as we saw last night. No leadership group and in fighting amongst players tells me they are not happy either.

I thought the support for the most part was great last night.

Hoping to end the season consigning that lot up the road to relegation and winning at Wembley but then the re-build starts again as we have no prem quality players currently.

In a game of opinions many of us see opinions like yours as thatt of fans being prepared to sleepwalk back into oblivion from a fantastic position of strength.

The happy medium is probably somewhere between the two attitudes, but posts like this exasperate many.

You can love ITFC, but still be frustrated with the opening of the season.

It’s far from sunshine and rainbows with performances, and dare I say you’d need to be a bit deluded to think otherwise.

The squad dismantling and management looks questionable, the rebuild looks messy and the performances are following suit.

That also doesn’t mean KMc position is in question, absolutely not, he’s a phenomenal manager we are lucky to have.

But the performance levels are frustrating, and KMc is right himself when he says we are miles away from where we would want to be, with an enormous amount of work to do.

It’s precisely because we have plenty of passive, apathetic and/or easily contented fans that are satisfied with mediocrity instead of demanding for continuous improvement and excellence that Evans got away with 14 years of failure and regression.

Of course people should be free to criticise and objective criticism is important but i find a surprising number of so called supporters to be unduly negative and to seemingly get a perverse pleasure from it. I thought that last night was our most complete performance of the season - we gave up very little and created enough chances to win the game comfortably. Obviously we need to take at least one of those opportunities but nine times out of ten we do and win the game and everyone’s perspective is different The important thing for me seeing a plan and improvement and there is no doubt in my mind we are developing well as a team and on the right track. The bumpy start was inevitable with the turnover of players we’ve had regardless of the spend, luckily we’re not the only team struggling for consistency and are still well in touch if the top two. I find so many fans to be fickle, unrealistic in their expectations and I sometimes wonder how they get through the day with their immature response to any sort of adversity. By all means criticise but always try and keep things in context. Every day we have McKenna is a good day in my opinion. Memories are short but will suddenly become vivid the day we don’t have him

It's the changing of the guard that gets me. Posters who rarely comment generally, especially after wins are suddenly providing their in depth analysis of everything wrong with us. Combined with many regulars stepping away from the moaning that comes straight after not winning well gives them a wider voice.

And as has been said before many times, a decent rant or critique of us is nearly always accepted. It's when people jump in two footed after every loss, or in this case draw, and blame everything from the boardroom to the team lady and make ridiculous claims of players and staff being Sunday league when they clearly just had a bad game, that people get really frustrated and tell them to shut up.

Feels like this season’s gonna be less about the football and more about fans moaning at other fans for not being positive enough.

FWIW, I thought we were alright last night, but it’s football, it’s all about opinions. Some people it appears just can’t handle that and seem desperate to prove they’re the 'better' supporter because they refuse to see a single flaw or negative opinion..

You rarely see someone giving a round of applause when someone drops a fart with a pleasant smell, but when someone else drops a hefty acrid guff; they're in uproar. People are very strange

Completely agree. We are one of the most tolerant fan bases, and that works against us. It has always been the case, or at least in my lifetime going back to the dismantling of Sir Bobby's squad.

Indeed, there's a whole cabal of posters that just don't post when Town are doing well and they come out en masse after a poor result. It's very tedious. Half of them aren't even Town fans.

Criminally overspent. A very dramatic statement. Nice one. Who and by how much? Please list. The term is only applicable at the point they move on in terms of what service they gave and their fee. Who would you have bought and for what?

People were beating McKenna over the head with Kone a month ago. Looked fresh from the donkey sanctuary on Saturday. Overspent on Hutchinson and Delap? I thought we did on Delap. That much money for an unproven lump of player? Mad.

Interesting looking at who was posting Sat-Tues and who is posting now. Some are consistent and win or lose offer their views. Others disappear after a win strangely.
