Snippets - amalgamated from different sources.

1) As much as they had hoped to make it to the end of the season with TF, the club do have a plan for an interim coach. It's not unreasonable to think that a loss tomorrow could trigger that plan.

2) The THFC hierarchy recognizes that barring a miraculous turnaround, we'll be appointing a new manager for next season. They have had conversations with one particular person about the role. There is strong mutual interest between us and this person. Then again, as someone (
:eusa_think:
) said, "Anything that can go wrong will go wrong".
 
To be honest who cares about blame. We shouldn’t be such babies when we get criticised as a fan base. I’ve gone off and on since the late 80s and even though we’ve had quiet periods and moaning fans at times we’ve probably had worse squads than this. This year has definitely been the worse home atmosphere I can remember. The first half against Man City last week was silent from kick off. You could hear the players shouting.

I think the second half of last season was worse around me. Apathy and anger is definitely less. But that might just be the accumulated tiredness of it all.

The blame is just deflection from Frank. The suggestion is that we are a problem, when in fact we are seemingly the only ones who want to keep standards high all while the owners, manager and players don’t want to take responsibility.
 
I can't think of another team in Premier League history. Be it a big club or a small club.. Have such a heinous record as 2 wins in 16.. whilst putting so much onus on the fans.

Now the fans are important in games like tomorrow of course.. But fingers are always being pointed in every other direction. The message rarely seems to be "We haven't been good enough. There's no excusing this form. We need to put it right".. It always seems to be"Yeah results haven't been good, but this, but injuries, but the fans, but hey didn't we play half decent for that 20 minutes?"

The amount of gaslighting is insane
 
Was it the Dr Tottenham performance against West Ham, the scraped injury time draw v Burnley or perhaps the 1 shot on target v Manure that led you to that conclusion. There is nothing at present to be positive about with this team
Before it was months of abject misery. I'm seeing at least short periods of competent play. A low bar admittedly. And it's still fucking miserable. I'm going to have to go tomorrow as no one wants my seat on the exchange
