Has anyone noticed that it is the same problems each and every game. Ok so there are few players who are doing exceptionally right now but the same culprits are to blame week in week out

ALB - no saves yet again and determined not to collect crosses and loves booting the ball out of play. Its like having Rob Moverly back.

Ritchie - at fault for one if not both goals, too slow, and after every goal conceded moans to the other defenders as if it was their fault. His distribution is chronic and positioning even worse. Ritchie please, just go to darlo and burden them instead.

Robson - after that little purple patch earlier in the season he has reverted back to his old self. He looks completely lost and seems clueless when he has the ball. that time where he got between the two defenders and then ballooned the ball over the stand was laughable. If an opposition player did that we would be all on here taking the pee

Mackay - He cant do ANYTHING right!!! no brain, clueless, cant control a ball, runs away from the ball, cant head the ball - If CT cant see this then he is not fit to manage a fart.

We are not going to turn the corner when we are carrying 4 players every game. A side can cope with 1 or 2 poor performances each game but not 4.

the most obvious same problem that i can see is your overwhelming desire to post the same old shite after every fookin game.

do you honestly think that you're the only one insightful enough to see all this ? probably any fooker on this board who's ever kicked a ball before can see it all, but we choose not to obsess over it.

i actually quite like looking at the positives from a game and would prefer to focus on that. if you want flawless robot-football, you're watching (i can't bring myself to use the word "supporting") the wrong club.

you really don't get the theory behind watching your home town, lower league club, do you ?

has someone nicked my avatar?

Take it as a compliment.

Will have to find a new one

thats better

Nah, I'm a simple man, I prefer the bouncy t*ts.

ive got a very rude one but it may upset the mods

wheres the new sexy avatar?

do you think id be in the badbooks if i were to display the lady and the ball avatar on that site?

Post it after midnight, for the adults.

Then change it back, and people will be wondering all day tomorrow what it was!

fun while it lasted

Did I miss it?

Apologies tigro, I thought I had seen the image before but did not realise it was your avatar.

and what positives were there from yesterdays game apart from Rune Lange???

I do get the theory behind watching your home town team, the theory being that I want to see them do well. This will never happen when you are carrying 4 shite players which was the point I was making. If you think the whole theory behind watching your home town team is to just accept poor performances and not to question why then Im glad I dont have such poor expectations.

I dont expect flawless football but I do expect the club to have enough about it to replace underperforming players which 90% of the supporters can see. If Pools are a 'business' then seperating the wheat from the chaff should be second nature.

Well said grave - wished Id seen this earlier - a perfect example of Scotty Syndrome as I'll ever see

Its strange that the rose tinted spec brigade have not produced a list of all the positives from yesterday's game?? Hmmm

Don't you fooking start!!

Positives from yesterday;

The beer was nice in the Mill House
I had a steak pie in the ground
The beer was nice after the game
I had a Thai Pan and that was also nice
We didn't lose
Rune looked useful and has nice boots
The own goal was piss funny as was Clayton Ince's through ball
It didn't snow much
I had a nice warm scarf on

I can think of more if you want.

show me where i said that i'd taken positives from yesterday ? i'll save you the bother, because i didn't. my reply to your comrade grave has been taken completely out of context. but don't worry because the "shit-smeared" glasses brigade will always do that to back up their skewed view of things.

"wished i'd seen this earlier" makes you sound like a cold war soviet censor, pouncing on any sign of insurrection. do you steam open my mail as well ?

lazy, lazy, lazy generalisations. "Scotty syndrome" "rose-tinted glasses"

never let the truth get in the way of a good soundbite. arse.

'Rose tinted' appears to be a popular term of acceptable abuse, to be used against reactionary optimists and anyone who does not agree with the thoughts of Chairman Moan and his militant Scowlistas.
