Everybody so far is slating the loan deal if steve Howard. He was brought in to help the development of madine, robbie fowler ga been working on the finishing and positioning with the aeriel and holding skills to be worked on. Dj commented that he wasn't strong enough and with another Geordie who has been around a while to put his arm around him and help gain some confidence and give him a push. kevin Nolan did it with andy Carroll, we will be ok next season we will do better, another three points on Monday come on

Top comment. A breath if fresh air

Most of the expert negatives have no ability or foresight and make wild inaccurate statements and have been made to look plonkers. They got a bit of confidence back because we lost 3 out of 4 (against just about best sides in division) so bull started again. most of comments by same couple of people. You can tell by use of vocalbury.

Only two supporters fail to recognise Jones strengths?

I also spotted the neg expert writing style a while ago. I think it's so they can work each others posts.

Grow up lads, when you get older you’ll realise that you’re not always right, and even when you are other people will still have the right to express a different opinion to yours.
The man thing to do is to accept it, or debate it sensibly with facts, and not resort to insults.
I’ve just spent the best part of two hours reading all the posts on both sites, I suggest your “gang” do the same.
You will see, because its obvious to anybody whatever your views, that the critical posters are the only ones who are actually presenting any facts to support their views.
The people who talk about “negs and experts” put up nothing by way of a constructive argument, just insults and blind faith statements of support for the manager - which I have to tell you is not the same as supporting the team and the club.
I’d like to bet there's a good number of the team would like to see the back of the manager too because the players all want to succeed and progress too.

The attempt to justify negative comments is unbelievable. Perhaps he would like to point out what these facts are they have put forward.
The facts are DJ has limited funds and had to make do with mainly free signings and loan acquisitions. The step up between league 1 and Championship is significant and we achieved promotion last year with a squad who would be taxed at this level.
His signings Kirkland, Gardner, Halen, Lita, Pugh, Antonio and Lee have all done well. In addition we have acquired several promising players for the future. We have made several signings who have not woked out but this is normal for all managers. especially when you are opeating at bargain basement level.
DJ is not a miracle worker he is a sensible manager who has done well with limited resources and is well respected throughout the game who has been able to bring in players we did not previously get access too.

Its not an attempt to justify negativity its defending the criticisms and the right to make them!
You make no mention of his in/out loan deals, his other close season acquisitions, choice of Captain, tactics and results between Burton & Gray?
The point is made, there are two viewpoints here, and criticising the manager for his mistakes is as, or more acceptable than saying a player who we have hardly seen is not good enough, or slating a player for missing a penalty!
In any walk of life the one in charge ultimately takes the blame for failure don't they, and in this case that's DJ and many fans think so, and many fans think the same as you?
Room for all opinions without insults being traded?
Agree13

"Grow up lads" and " your gangs" in the same sentence?
I don't see any sensible posts you make. It's just bitter brainwashed anti MM and DJ tripe.
If we win tomorrow you will be crawling back u dear your stone.

I think some people on this board would moan if we we had just won the Premiership, FA cup and Champions League etc etc. There is far too much negativity about who we have signed recently, I think that they are pretty good signings for the situation were in and I don't think we could have got much better. In fact I bet that these players wouldn't have gone to any other club this low down so it shows they think we have a good chance of staying up.
I used to like these pages and they were a good source of info/ funny banter but now I think I won't be coming back as there is less about signings and too much about how rubbish DJ, MM and the club in general have been. If your going to be negative just for the hell of it then go find another club to support. Manchester United seem to win all the time so go support them there can't be too much to be negative about there. I'd rather have a club with 10000 supporters completely behind the team than 30000 where half of them just want to pick holes regardless of what we are doing.
Thanks for the good times when this was a good webpage.

Well said, well said, can't agree with you more pal, so we have steve howard so what, if he was to score a header for us to make it 1-0 to us would people still moan.
Agree2

Steve howard a big powerfull forward, he could be a big help to madine, only here short term so give the lad a break. Its no good mouthing off till we see what he can do (may even get the negs behind him if he scores a goal or 2) great result agin the dingles well done all at S6 UTO eric the owl

Incredible rubbish about those being critical giving facts. They make highly questionable statements and use selective comments. I have neve seen anything more unbalanced than the comments relating to DJ with regards Wednesday in 35 yeas.

One loan player won't be in the squad today. Who you reckon it'll be? Helan, Pugh, Howard, Holden, olofinjana or lita? For me it's got to be Harlan as he's not been doing as good a job as he can do recently

Howard.

Really hope that maguire starts today, he has looked really good in the bits we've seen of him. This is the perfect chance for him to start.
I don't expect him to start though as Holden will be playing off lita with olifinjana (wrong spelling) in midfield with prutton helan & lee maybe pugh

Totally agree, I stiil think both him and Madine (M&M) can stake a claim and help get us out of this mess.
Neither of them have been given even a short run of games to show what they can do.
Agree2
Disagree1
Neither are good enough.
Agree2
Disagree3
LMN?- because DJ says so I suppose?
Madine is good enough for Champs and he’ll prove it in his career. he's got 3goals this season without being given a run in team.
None of us have seen enough of Maguire to know one way or the other, but what I will say is Maguire has contributed more this season than JB did and JB got a lot more opportunities to show it!
Agree4

The fact that you are still on about JB is ridiculous.

4 for Madine! - and would have been a lot more if DJ had picked him instead of all the half-fit OAPs that he's brought in!

The fact that DJ picked him was more ridiculous.

Did he not miss a penalty?

Oops, negative experts made fools of themselves again.
Great result lads, few more wins and we will stay up.
UTO FTNE.

Did he not score a goal?
Surely that's the more important thing to mention, and did you fail to notice that none of the other players had the b**** to step up and take it!

You keep winging about DJ, I'll go and celebrate a win.
Enjoy.

LMN? - Great results lads?
It was but you’ve just had a go at Madine the first goalscorer for missing a pen? - and you’re calling other fans negative!
Agree4
Disagree0
No matter wot madine does someone will av a go at him. Our best player today by a mile. Crap pen but first he's missed for us. looked gud when he came on against Cardiff. ffs he hasn, t bin given a chance this season. Neither has Maguire an jones signed him. always bin a jones fan throughout his career but not bin a impressed wiv him this season. Had a great run lately but still only 1 pt above relegation. wiv better tactics an style of play would av bin much higher. mik

Just noticed that you only get called a neg/neg expert? (Stupid & childish!) if you criticise Dave Jones?
The same people calling fans negs think its OK to slag off the players, the ones who are working every day of the week, but if you dare to say anything about DJ you’re somehow NOT a proper fan? Explain please.
Agree9
Disagree0
Yes.
I don't think Madine is good enough and you was blaming DJ for not picking him.
He did score but also missed a penalty.
I hope that is simple enough for you.
Now go back into your corner and do some complaining.
UTO.

Nope, that isn't true, it's the complete negative package that the true fans despise.
Go dry your eyes because we won.
