Classic internet response - mocking a point I didn't make. I’ve said the club’s a shambles, and most of the blame sits with the board and players. But relentless fan negativity plays a part too - and elements of this thread proves it 

 

I'm not sure fans hate posting in a Jordan Ayew thread all summer will avoid any icebergs.

There's a difference between holding the club to account and having an addiction to moaning. Our 'fans' are spending a summer adding to a 100+ page hate thread for an ex-player and a 300+ page 'King Power Out' thread that won't generate a new billionaire owner. Same mentality as booing a player coming on as a sub, chanting about murdering Rudkin and going on GB News saying you want us to get relegated because you hate the board.

 

My point remains: the board have overseen failure after failure. The players have performed below their pay grade. As a result, the fan atmosphere is toxic.

 

Yet it feels to me like:

• the board think it's the players and fans' fault - so don't change
• the players think it's the board and fans' fault - so don't change
• the fans think it's he board and players' fault - so don't change

Rinse and repeat. A culture where nobody recognises fault brings no change, and the downward spiral continues.

What a load of empty waffle. Fans don’t think it’s the board or players fault, that’s an undeniable fact, what are you actually on about.

The song at Norwich included the lines ‘How we kill him, I don’t know. Chop him up from head to toe’ 

 

Are you both advocating that? 

Yeah, it leaves no grey area.

Think you need to calm down a bit if you're actually taking it as a serious threat, our fanbase hasn't waited outside the ground for him needing evacuation to keep him safe akin to Martin at Rangers. I think you'll be waiting a long time til the fans singing that at Norwich are forcing him into a bacon slicer.

Spare us the faux outrage, its distasteful, at worst chavvy but the bottom line is if he was doing a decent job and not running the club into the ground he wouldn't be getting chants like this

Tbf the Norwich fame the chant about Rudkin went way over a line 

But it was accurate

He’s here

Just goes to show how much the club values the views of the supporters.

In fairness I don't think a club should consider fans view for managers or players

What facts are being ignored?

 

In an ideal world we all want Top to sell or atleast have Rudkin permanently removed. It ain’t happening any time soon.

 

Refusing to completely write off a managerial appointment before the blokes even started is hardly ignorant to any facts.

It’s almost like we have access to his managerial record. Also, it’s a fact that this board won’t give him any players to do anything with. Refusing to write him off is blind optimism, he’s shite and we’re shite, we all know how this is going to go

That’s the spirit.

If nothing else works, a total pig headed unwillingness to look facts in the face will see us through

We have to give him a chance - he has a clear identity and we have to recruit/build a squad to complement it.

 

Can’t be asked with continuous screaming of bloody murder after every decision the club make.

It’s clear Top isn’t selling and Rudkin won’t be going anywhere no matter how much belly-aching the fanbase does.

 

Clubs of our stature live and die by our recruitment so hopefully we get that bang on ( We Have To)

 

The idea of seeing Luke Thomas & Hamza Choudhury being the backbone of our team next season genuinely keeps me up at night.

We don't have to at all. Clubs of our stature live and die by our recruitment, agreed, hence why were dying with appointments like this

My tune has probably changed but I’d rather sell Nelson than souttar now.  Obviously we may lose both but if it was one or the other … I think we’re at a place where we need definite quality, not potential. A team with souttar gets promoted a team with Nelson 

Agreed, I was massive on giving Nelson a chance early on in the season, and probably is harsh given the lack of coaching but I've seen nothing in him that makes me fearful of losing him. Had a couple of good games, but far more bad, if wed had Souttar available all season theres no chance we'd have gone down

I hate to think what they'll be paying this ****

I think it will come to a head next season. Mid/lower half getting beat by Bromley at home around xmas will be the tipping point. Think things could turn nasty then. I dont know what other fans are seeing that im not as i saw someone ask on facebook if we will smash the 100 point barrier next season and he was being deadly serious. Come on WTF!!!

People have been saying this for the last how many years, nothing will come to a head whilst we have the kpfc loyalist fans ever still attedning, it will just create more blue on blue action in the stands where the club will take the side of the kpfc lot obviously. Just like the club, nothing will change til Aiyawatt sells up, unfortunately for us I think it's going to be very soon as admin will force his hand

Do you know him personally? 

Don't need to know him personally to know he's an absolute ****

The only positive I can think of with Martin is that it will be over quickly. Was always going to happen and it won't happen again

Millwall’’s new effort for next season .

That’s absolutely lovely imo

Actually a bit depressing this, hope the players involved realise what's going on behind the scenes. What an absolute **** up

The club don't deserve a shirt like that. Each player should be smeared in diarrhoea with a number drawn with a finger on their back until they get out of League One.

What if they get out of league one but it’s to league 2

If it’s the running badge, then that’s one step closer to my proposal. How this isn’t censored as adult material, I’ll never know Phil.

I would full kit willy puller the **** out of this, superb viewing

It wouldn't. People just want a quick appointment because we all want to move on from last season. That's understandable, but if the club prioritizes getting it done quickly over getting the best candidate we'll just end up sacking again by October.

Or because appointing quickly might show we actually have a plan rather than just winging it and still end up appointing someone ****ing useless but don't end up sacking until its too late.

I enjoyed watching us for the most part when Enzo was here, it wasnt always box office football but I'm not sure many clubs of our stature will play attractive football all the time anyway

I think we were very decent to watch when teams actually tried to match up against us and didn't just turn up to park the bus. There was nothing more infuriating than the gimps frothing at the mouth for us to just lump aimless long balls for strikers to chase when sides turned up with 2 fortified banks to break through. I'm not a massive fan of possession football but at least with Maresca there were clear patterns of play and a structure, we weren't anywhere near as bad to watch as people make out

I dont think were in a place where we can get what we want, only whats on offer, in league one he may still do a job 

No I don’t either but hes absolutely shite, there’s got to be about 100 better options for what he’d cost in wages alone, surely

Jay Rodriguez released from Wrexham. Never been prolific I know, but surely could do a job in league one, if only as an experienced squad player coming off the bench, with another new forward starting and a youngster alongside Rodriguez on the bench.

Jesus wept

That absolutely stinks

I am just hoping McCarron will bring fresh ideas and energy and one of his initial thoughts is we need to appoint early to ensure we are well prepared ahead of pre season

Makes absolutely no difference whatsoever what McCarron brings whilst he's still reporting to Rudkin
