Interesting to see how some posters regard realistic assessment and analysis of the teams performance as 'whining and bitching'. If in their eyes you can only be a true fan if you ignore what actually happens on the pitch and replace that assessment with worthless / blind support then there is no purpose in having the site.
I believe fans that go to games or simply watch on the tv want to talk about what they see not continually chant 'we are Leeds, we are the best, champions of Europe etc etc. ' That's fine before, during and after the game but why would you want to write in a post when talking properly and honestly about football, including the highs and lows, is what is really about. Saying the team didn't play well when they didn't isn't negative or disloyal it's simply calling it as it is.

Spot on Hess. The use of words such as whining and bitching are totally inflammatory. I would be more inclined to consider their point of view if some insight was provided.

Insight? I think it is fairly obvious what I was saying.

Insight about the team, the tactics, what you think works well or not. Instead we get vailed insults.

4 loses outta 5 is fairly obvious what we are saying also!

Insight of how the team played, what you see to suggest that we will be promoted etc.

I admit my confidence in promotion is starting to lessen especially after our worst performance of the season against Forest. However MB has us set up to win and to state the obvious we do not take enough of the many chances we create in the majority of games. The system works but players need to take more responsibility on the pitch and not be afraid to shoot.
There is one thing which does frustrate me with Bielsa is not rotating the team. I don’t mean him keeping faith with certain players but making a couple of changes to keep things and players fresh.

Notts you are obviously a very sensitive person if being called a whinger is such an insult to you. Apologies if I upset you.

Cork, your apology means very little as wrapped in sarcasm which by your own standards you dislike. Let's just leave it there.

I wasn’t being sarcastic. I’ll leave that to you. Now that’s sarcasm!
