Being supportive means supporting the club as a whole, not the individuals in the club. Sometimes that means to be supportive of the club, you have to criticise individuals at the club for not doing a very good job, so that the club can prosper. E.g. criticising the manager instead of defending him.Eric Pollard wrote:I just try and support my team. Through thick and mostly thin. Born in Oxford, support Oxford.
We can't all have a cluster of favourite teams like you Snaky .
'This year I will be mainly supporting Swansea etc.
Ooh nice, Wrexham are at Wembley , let's get the red and white scarf out.'
Etc. etc.

Re: Resilient
I see that Darrell Eales has targeted 'five or six' more wins before the end of the season, saying that getting momentum on the run-in is 'absolutely critical'.
An indication that even he has concerns over Appleton's performance, and that simply avoiding relegation now will not be deemed acceptable?

Gosh Terry, thanks for that searing insight
Good for Eales, put the pressure on. The team as currently constituted should be able to get 5-6 wins.

Re: Resilient
momentum for a really solid mid-table finish?
Presumably so that all the loan players can go back to their clubs full of confidence?

Re: Resilient
Well four of our remaining six home games are against Cambridge (17th but level on points with us in 18th),York (20th), Carlisle (21st) and Hartlepool (24th), plus Tranmere (23rd) away so we certainly should be expecting to win those! If only we were in the play-off mix ...
