Blaming the fans again after we’ve just sold out Luton away Unbelievable He has not blamed the fans at all he is asking for us to unite and get behind them, remember the 12 man against Man City, getting behind them will get the adrenaline flowing ( I know we have been shit but worth a try),

If we come out all guns blazing tomorrow the fans will respond. If we come out like a limping, wet lettuce the fans will respond.
Give us something to get behind.

What does that mean…..FFS is he blaming others! Probably means if a big enough offer comes in he won't get a say.

Give us something to get behind. last week first half was error strewn & lame fans were increasingly restless with half arsed 'your not fit wear the shirt' chant second half Stoke were miles better, more aggressive, attacking, fans could see this & got behind them, imho the team could sense the crowds support & could also sense they actually had the measure of the home side (had we played first half the same we would have won) applauded off at the end not expecting champagne football are we but faster aggressive attacking intent & the crowd will back that

Well maybe if they didn't miss sitters and concede every time the opposition has a shot on target, we may have something to cheer about.

Welcome to all members of the media for todays pre match press conference First question of the day and its over to Angela Smith "Thank you, Alex, we've seen a number of loan players depart this week, coupled with the permanent departure of Joe Bursik last week and the rumoured signing of Aiden Flint by Derby, on top of rife media speculation that Harry Souttar is wanted by Leicester. Given the apparent lack of incoming signings or replacements, FFP challenges and a precarious financial position, and the club in a horrific run of form and just 2 points off the relegation zone, many of the fans have just one question WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS GOING ON....." 4 points isn’t it?

I see no issue with what he says about fans booing, he's dead right, yes at the end of the game after a poor performance, no problems, but during a game when we are in the position we are in, I take his point. What was he meant to say, yes by all means, go ahead.

What was he meant to say, yes by all means, go ahead. When there’s only Wigan with less home points than us this season, won 8 from 28 at home, fans paying hard earned money in hard times, there’s going to be unrest and they have every right to boo if they’re being served up constant shite.

Superb. I actually read all that with Ange’s voice and then with a look of shock upon Neil’s face at the end.

I think that is the best he has spoken to be fair, at least on the face of it he is trying to make changes

Like an old married couple.
Sorry Ange. 😂

This bloke gets more unlikeable with every minute that passes Anyone in the right mind cannot possibly take an issue with anything he said in that press conference wether you like him or not. If anyone has they have there own agenda He spoke about why he’s trying to do and didn’t lay the blame at anyone’s door

To be honest I think he spoke pretty well. Anyone who took exception to what he said about the atmosphere in the ground is just looking for something to poke at. He definitely didn't say that the fans don't have a right to object, he was just saying that regardless of whether that is right or wrong that a negative atmosphere in the ground will ultimately lead to nervousness within the team. Basically what we are already seeing, players trying to limit the mistakes they make by taking the easy pass rather than feeling confident and playing unconsciously. Vicious cycle as in trying to consciously not make mistakes you are more likely to make them, as we have seen over and over and over.
