...... that a few players have read this board over the last few days and read the vitriol towards them and thought, “ this one is for the fans “
Far fetched I know but after today’s performance something has clicked I feel......
Thoughts...?

Nope but if the board have any sense they’ve gone to players and said there’s a pot of gold as a staying up bonus to be shared amongst the squad

Shawcross... it was him coming back and I watched him closely. We suddenly seemed to be a lot more stable at the back (ignoring the set pieces) and there was an air of confidence too. He got stuck in, foot in, tackled hard, great positioning, cajoled the team, gripped players and constantly steered the players around him. It was the same when he was last in until his injury...
Such a difference... and confidence will grow with him in the side.

They are all to busy fucking about on twitter bigging themselves up, we desperately needed that win however let's see how it pans out from here.

All of them will be regulars on here.
Wouldn't be surprised if some of them regularly post on here.
Doubt this message board had much influence though.

Players coming back and performing well was a big boost, but credit ABSOLUTELY MUST go to the manager for today.

They get constant shit on twitter. I’d imagine they’re trained to completely ignore fans on social media.

Thoughts...? I wouldn't go to a website where there was a pretty good chance of me being called a lazy money grabbing wanker on a fairly regular basis 😁 Come on this is your chance to get rid of a part-time poster 😎

No - I think there's been a few serious words though about professionalism, and put aside any any mardy moments and help keep the supporters on side.

There was definitely something different at the back and not just the person.

No.
We took the lead.
Bottled it like usual.
But this time we had a player on the pitch in Shawcross who actually gives a damn and he dragged the rest of the spineless fuckers up with him.
That was the difference.

I agree but if the contract farce rumours are right then my idea would help make amends we could restore win bonus too

That was the difference. Not been, not seen a stream, listened to the radio so can not really comment on the performance, sounded as though Ryan made a difference and pray he stays fit for the rest of the season, we have lacked leadership all season ! how can it be that we have managed to sign a shed load of players none of whom have any leadership qualities, the process is shit.

They deserved sod all. And the fact that we so no nearly gave it to them says it all imo. Shawcross was brilliant. And dragged us to that win.

I doubt it, but who really knows or cares if they do have a peep, but the difference today was deffinatly Shawcross,he was colossal in defence, and just reminded me of when we bought Taggart, and he led us on a ten game unbeaten run,so lets hope the introduction of Shawcross,has the same effect.
