Boo hoo man up. Sometimes your football team is good sometimes it's completely fuching shit. Try not to get too low when they are the latter. 

 

Imagine how a Sunderland fan feels. 

I've been through loads of lows as a City fan but this seems different.

I'm 56 and been a fan since I was 5 I'm just telling you how I feel

You've been through some unbelievably tough times then. 

 

Bournemouth away only 2 seasons ago was worse than this. Losing our grip on champs league football in the past two season is worse.

 

The absolute pony we were playing towards the end of the Ranieri era was worse.

 

It's bad but come on lighten up.

Yep maybe I'm over reacting but all those other times seemed different.

Give over.

 

We've been dumped out of the FA Cup by Newport County and Milwall, the latter of which when we were defending league Champions. 

We were in a relegation battle under Ranieri and Shakespeare.

 

We're 11th in the Premier League and have been knocked out of the Europa League.

 

Hate to see your reaction when we do eventually get relegated.

 

 

I think he’s referring to the way it’s  gone to shit, 2 seasons ago pressing like mad, quick incisive passing , now we have this passive borIng football and a defence that cannot defend for toffee.

I felt pretty awful in a pub abroad somewhere watching Leicester draw to Stoke and us going down to League 1 while they went up to the premiership, or watching Knokaert miss a penalty, head in hands and not even seeing Deeneys winner, doesn't even register on a disappointment level this, we move on, not good enough so got what we deserved.

I remember being grateful for hanging on to beat Scunthorpe United 1-0 to prevent slipping into the Championship relegation zone. It doesn't get much worse than that.

I don't agree with the OP but I do kind of understand. Best squad we've ever had but repeated failings on and off the field have hampered us, and it doesn't feel like anything is due to change soon so can make you feel pretty hopeless.

I keep seeing "best squad we've ever had" and don't know where that is coming from.

 

I'd take Ranieri's 15/16 PL winning squad any day over this lot.

Agreed something is wrong. But put some perspective on it. 

 

Players looked like they didn't give a shit under Ranieri in his second season and we were actually in the relegation zone then (as defending Champions). Much worse than now.

Then you'll remember the days when we were so starved of success and a trophy that we took 10,000 to Notts County in the pissing rain in the hope of winning the mighty Zenith Data Systems Cup.

 

You can't tell me that right now feels worse than the Pleat years surely.

You usually make sense, so how long do you give it? I know you don’t think we’ll be in a relegation dogfight, but would you retain Rodgers if it comes to that?

Yeah me too mate, it was a great night.

 

Weird though how we can look back at when we were truly shit and say we enjoyed it but not enjoy being mid table in the premier league and in Europe.

 

I guess it's all relative...

I'm just not a fan of binning a manager when he's delivered so much and is going through one poor season (or currently half season). Sacking a manager after a poor run doesn't get you anywhere otherwise we will eventually be in a relegation dogfight. 

 

If we were genuinely in the relegation zone then of course I'd be supportive of sacking similar to I was with Ranieri and Shakespeare. Even though we were shit under Ranieri I supported him for a long time (it was the Millwall game in the FA Cup which changed my mind).

 

Thing is I also don't trust the board with appointments. Only Rodgers, Ranieri and Pearson have been successful (and I don't really count Pearson as he was here previously and wanted to come back).

Seems it's not just me who has no faith in us at all. Huh.

Wow you must be so proud. 

 

Don't have to relish in the clubs misery so much.
