during last nights "football" it was clear that we are in for a hard season. we lacked creativity and balance, all the new signings that played were seriously off the pace of the game and the only player that showed and class at all was gardner.

It sun that Sammy has put in a bid of £20,000 000 to buy the Wednesday, so who knows maybe we will see some money spent on a few good players, we can only hope. UTO eric the owl

when will we realise that the powers that be at s6 are not investing in the team at all. its garbage to keep banging on about we are aiming to get to the premier league and then follow it up by signing free transfer players. rotherham were excellent last night whereas wednesday were woefull. Its no coincidence that we always miss out on so called name players. roll on a takeover, a takeover that would want to have a go! As opposed to the aim of making a personal profit.

Bloody hell all the negsperts have come out of the woodwork again incredibly quickly. We are two games into the season for f**ks sake, that's 2 not 42, the season is less than a week old. We played well on saturday against arguably the favourites for the title, most pundits believed we should have got something from that game too, yes we didn't play well last night but I don't care about having a cup run. I would rather have a good run in the league and not have the extra games in the cup where players get tired or injured. Get off the players and managers backs, all this negativity does filter to them and let's be honest would you give 100% if you knew you were going to get slated regardless of how you perform. Some of you on here I bet can't play football for toffee. let's see you get on the pitch with loads of negative people shouting at you and see how you perform. Yes we need some players as the squad is a little small but who do you propose we sign. The best players are out of our reach at the moment, we could get them and go back into debt, is that what you want? Other players are being wanted by so many clubs that talks are taking time. There are 26 days of the window left and I am sure in that time we will see more players come in. If there haven't been any new players with 2 hours left in the window then you can complain, and if we are in the relegation trouble with over half the season gone then you can also complain but till then please for f**ks sake take your negativity elsewhere or get behind the lads 100% and cheer them on to perform for us.

Did you pay to go watch the game last nite? Pay for travel? A hotel? All in all about 100pound +? Prob not,, that's why people complain, that's half a weeks wage for sum ppl, just saying,,,

Most of the posts above have said it for me so nothing really to add except what I said before the start of the season:

NO DECENT SIGNINGS THIS SEASON

You can disagree as much as you want by keeping your head buried in the sand (as one of the above posts said) rather than facing the truth. But this time as the season has already started I am going to add this:

YOU ONLY GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR

If you don't invest you don't succeed, business like!

Original poster here, I did go to the game and drove there and back from my home in North Leeds. I didn't get to the game at QPR due to a family emergency but had already bought train tickets and obviously my seat for the game so yes I have spent a fair amount of money, as a family we don't have much disposeable income so I don't get to many games but I got a decent bonus so could splash out a bit this month, I might not get to another game for a couple of months but that makes me no less of a supporter than anyone else on this board. Again there is talk of getting rid of DJ (a different post before there is any confusion). This has so obviously worked for us before changing the manager every couple of seasons to get better performance. Name any club where a team has done massively better after changing a manager and consistantly performed at that high level, it gets you temporary results but after a few dodgy results that manager is looking over his shoulder thinking he might be sacked next so results don't improve. All the doom and gloom merchants do is harp on about how we haven't spent any money. As I mentioned in my last post would you like to go back into debt again, or possibly see a new investor come in who doesn't give a damn about the club and its supporters. MM has spent lots of money getting the back room staff sorted and getting that better after years of neglect, the new signings so far this season look a lot better than last year but give them time to gel as a team. Some of them only joined last week so they still need to get used to each other. (Note to the editor, I am the original poster just on a different IP address as I am at work now just in case there is any confusion) {Ed001's Note - no worries mate.}

Well don't spend the money and then stop winging.

Listend to game and it just seems we cart pass a ball,, the simle things, I just don't understand wot the problem is, with something so simple, and we need a big boss player in centre mid who can dictate the game, I wouldn't even no who is available but we need to get looking fast,

Olafinjana?

We miss him so badly
