Not sure if anybody has already posted this thread & apologies if they have. On the Hawksby & Jacobs show which I love listening to we achieved a commendation for saturday as people reported Mark Hughes shouting 'PLAY' from the touchline .They were extremely impressed with us with LMH encouraging us to play football rather than being tempted to hoof it . Didn't we close out the game easily by keeping the ball and not allowing pressure to build by giving it away . I felt really proud and haven't been as positive about us for some time now, I really think this will be an exciting season. We will probably get thrashed occasionally but I think we will get some excellent results and even get a result against the big 4 on their ground which Tony Pulis never managed to.

SORRY but who gives a toss what they say. One bad game and they will be winding us all up as usual. Theyre paid to do that.

Yes I agree but people are starting to notice and although I don't really care what people think about us it is a change to get some praise and we will not be looked at as just a long ball team.

Yes, Hawksbee and Jacobs are about the only pair of TalkSport presenters who are not under instructions to play "good cop bad cop" on every topic that crops up.

Yes they can talk some shite - one supports Chelsea & the other Spurs not sure which way it is but they don't care less who they upset & they say it as they see it which is sometimes total bollocks!!!

I think Mark's strange Welsh-Manc hybrid accent may have confused a few people. Having watched the coverage and listened carefully I can confirm what he actually said was "GGGGGOOOOAAAARRRRNNNNN JOOOONNNNN" Easily confused for "Play" I admit but it appears that, just like Sir TP, Hughesie loves a bit of Walters.

Yes mate, I'm with you on that. We aren't really arsed what they say or think, but it's positive comments from a radio station that weren't forthcoming when TP was manager? Progress!

No assumptions that none of us care about what 'they' say about our club. I care. I've found it embarrassing on rail journeys home, on the media when I get there, in the 'papers the following day and in company thereafter. Why embarrassed? Because it has been largely justified criticism.
Loved it on the underground, last week-end, returning from the WHU match and (wearing club colours) having so many say well done, how we've changed and how their team was thoroughly outplayed.

That's brilliant you just don't expect that from other teams supporters, they just normally say they played crap & that's why we got a result. I would never have thought West Ham fans would have been like that, they are a hard bunch of bastards around that area.I could never see Man Utd , Arsenal or Chelsea fans ever giving us any credit if we got a result at their place.

People say they don't care what others think, but i think it bothers more than they let on, that is obvious because of the bad press we have had and peoples reaction to it. Someone, says a negative about us and many are up in arms, Some of it justified, some not and some of it has been slanderous. I for one have been embarrassed at what we have witnessed for the last 2 years. It is good to get some positve reaction for once regardless of where it comes from, it can only help us in the long run as a club.

I don't care what anyone says as long as we are winning. I just don't want us to be another Wigan / Tony Mowbray's West Brom where everyone loves us because we try to play 'the right way'

There was a lot more praise than criticism for Pulis from the media over the years and theres been far worse on here than from Adrian Durham, Mick Dennis or any Arsenal fans' blog.

Sorry I mean Talk Sport what a plonker!! A plonker you are indeed! The only one who praises us on 5 Live is Robbie Savage. The rest of them including that cunt Chappers just slag us off.

Yes I agree We have been slagged off on 5 live & the papers in particular Mick Dennis who has really stuck the boot in. I would just love these wankers to admit that we can actually play football . We will be losing this siege mentality that we had when we were the team everybody hated and wanted out of the prem, they were great days!!!
