Unfortunately I can see us starting the season worse (result wise) than last season. What will the excuse be:

The team need time to gel and get used to managers system
The team is young and lacking experience
We did play well but we were unlucky
Must lift our heads, dust ourselves down and get ready for our next game
For some reason we play better away than at home
GK made some ecellent saves but we failed to capitalise at the other end
The pitch was too slippy
The fans were wrong to blame the team for the poor display
We need a LB and GK but our priority is a 25 a season goal man
The wind was too blustery

I hope I'm wrong and we have a decent run playing decent football and getting decent results
 
AN: I’m gutted that we only put 3 past them, we could’ve played better. 3-0 didn’t flatter us I know, but it’s early days! ?
 
Being serious, so much negativity after only one competitive game, how about we get behind the lads. Most fans never get it, negativity doesn’t help the players one bit. A great and positive atmosphere makes the players feel good, and when they feel good they play better. Us fans are very much part of the team.
 
AN: "Rudd had a magnificent game, kept us in it first half. Maguire ran his socks off as lone striker and on another day could have had a brace. 0-0 was a fair score in the end"
 
People expected too much looking for promotion, nothing to indicate that we'd get it other than our owner saying we'd aim for it which every owner in the league does (never trust a businessman), a few poor results is generally normal for a lower midtable side

Exactly. We put an incentive scheme in place a few years back and some people think this was a guarantee we’d make the prem
 
Well it wont be. We had too many new players who need to get to know each other,
Seriously though nowt we can do about that now so we just have to get behind manager and the lads who wear the shirt.
 
I thought we played well we had more of the ball , the final ball was lacking we almost had a shot on target and with a bit of luck we could have scored. We just needed a bit more quality. Play this on a loop after every home match .
 
Last season AN seemed to have a monk on because of a poor window and that seemed to transmit to the players. It's not going to help if he does the same again. More importantly P9 W1 D1 L7 is a Claxton for things to change in terms of formation and tactics. No better time to do this than first home game of the season. Today is a big indication of how good a manager we have. Players out of position and Maguire up top on his own, or a more aggressive, assertive approach?? Coming Neil man, let's get an underdog, bollocks to the big spenders, release the dogs of war attitude and have a right bloody go at it!!
