Lmao.

Put people on ignore. Use the foul button. Don't be a cunt. These are some top tips on how to "survive" this forum.

I'm trying to be helpful here but you aren't listening to any of it. This is why you are having so much difficulty. Take my advice, don't take my advice. The end result will still be that this forum is this forum.

Your enjoyment of it very much depends on your approach and ultimately, your personality. Since your approach seems to be narrow minded and antigonistic, and you only want to see things from your perspective, you will continue to have difficulty with the more volatile members of this board.

I'm sticking you on ignore now because you are pissing me off, quite frankly, so I'm using the forum features as intended so I don't see shit I don't want to see. I've got better things to do with my life. If you did the same, you wouldn't be so offended.

I've pissed you off because I've touched a nerve and you know you are part of the problem.

You don't think uncalled for personal insult is bullying?

How could any civilised person appreciate such an environment?
Free speech does not include vulgar and insulting language .

It's not a matter of bending to my will its behaving like civilised adults I expect.

The problem is accepting, being part of and enjoying such behaviour. Are you all proud of yourselves if you behave like that. Do you think you are a nice person?

I do appreciate knowledgeable and considered input of which there is some on here. But its tainted by the angry and aggressive content which is unacceptable.

This is a social behaviour problem. The administrators need to deal with this.

You don’t seem to understand this forum. Why are you hell bent on trying to change it? If you don’t like it (here’s a hint, the majority do) use another forum and stop cluttering threads trying police it. Your one man “anti bullying” crusade is tiresome

I’d play 3-5-2 and play deki in behind Kane and Danjuma. I’d also start Sarr for Skipp. Just a wee tweak to the formation and freshen it up will change it. Deki will be better from central playing more free rather than the wing. He’s doing too much work 60 yards from the opposition goal rather than 30 yards from their goal. By playing that formation he’d also go and play against the opposition’s deepest midfield player and then we don’t get outnumbered in there. It also gives the back 3 the option of missing our midfield 2 and going into him which then quickens up our play. Danjuma can stretch them and Kane can do what he does. I hate the 3-4-3. Too easy to play against,very one dimensional going forward and we don’t ask enough questions of opposition defenders

I haven't looked into how Bournemouth play. Are they an attacking threat? Can we play with a bit more freedom?

It wouldn’t take much to sort us out into a decent outfit. I reckon it would take two weeks to retrain this lot into a 4231. Yesterday the players looked to be playing with a bad formation, lacking confidence and motivation. If we brought any competent manager in (eg. Poch) who is good at motivating a group and breeding togetherness then we would pick up performances and style very quickly.

I thought we’d win yesterday because I knew the fans would keep the players motivated.

2 weeks to train them??? 2 sessions max. You can show them on a board for fuck sake. Every player should know how to play every formation. All formations are similar because when the ball moves the formation changes constantly.

I understand it all right. I don't run away from a fight. I keep going. Someone needs to police it, the rules are laid out.
 
Given the season we have had and the media coverage we have been on the end of, would be better it’d we didn’t break out of the slump and play great football but instead fucked over both UTDs with scrappy ugly wins then got 4th
 
Super win. Surprised me and super pleased.

We are a team who are 5th and yet we can say with certainty that if we had 4 or 5 players with better than average form this season we would be in the top 3. So frustrating.

Not predicting a damn thing against Bournemouth but you have to hope it will be what would look like a respectable 8 points from 12. Should be looking back as 12 from 12.

Get the right manager and the right players and it feels like it might be all there.

But this season is the last time we will see 3 or 4 players. No doubt at all.

My advice would be to let it go, and either enjoy the forum for what it is, or find a new one. You certainly won't change it.

How about anyone who wants to interact with me does it in a friendly and civilised way. ? A supporter to a supporter. No insults or vulgarity.
That should narrow it down to a few decent people. That's all I need.
Why are you so certain I won't change it ?

Because you won’t. You don’t have that right and it won’t happen.

This place is self moderating. Don’t like something, use the foul vote option.

But get a bloody thicker skin if you intend on continuing to sully us with your presence.
