In the days before the internet, did seasonal meltdowns happen as quick on 12:42 - Sep 24 with 1845 views | Superblue95 | The internet compounds meltdowns by an astronomical level. A few weeks ago there was only about 4/5 posters worrying about us, with the rest saying we will be fine. Now 90% of the forum are panicking, our players are all league two standard, and after we get relegated (staying up is no longer a possibility, apparently) we will never make it back to this level. If the internet didn't exist people wouldn't be even remotely as hysterical as they are currently | |

But when we win three on the bounce 80% of the forum will be talking about a run at the playoffs. | |

There's some things I've heard over the last few weeks, compounded by the lack of progress - regression, even - on the pitch which have caused me to reappraise my views on Hurst and his chances of success. | |

What is it you have heard then? As long as it’s not libellous can’t you expand on your post as there are plenty of us in the dark on these apparent issues | | | |

Quite. I'm unsure if any of those preaching 'patience' or 'more time' saw just how utterly, utterly abject we were on Saturday, against a Bolton side that have just avoided admin, and will, most likely, be in the bottom 8 this season. This follows on from, by all accounts, an equally dismal performance against the utter basket case of a club in Hull; a club who, again, we can expect to be battling relegation this year. When taken against the background of the (numerous) murmurings of discontent coming out of PR right now, it is apparent that all is very far indeed from being well. If we disregard the rantings of the usual attention-seeking w@nkers, and focus upon the more rational, sensible posts made by a lot of the 'old guard' here, then it can be surmised that we are in an almighty fcking mess right now. | | | |

That's fair enough but again that's down to the internet, the vast majority of us wouldn't have known about the apparent behind the scenes issues had it not been for this site. It's then been spread around like wildfire and likely greatly exaggerated at some point along the way (not that I'm insinuating Joe or the respected posters are making things up). Being concerned is fine, any Town fan who says they aren't worried in the slightest is a liar. But the internet has undoubtedly compounded the hysteria we are seeing on here | |
