Maybe bully is the wrong word. I can't think of a better way of describing Grecian jay mind you. I do think that this forum will be a much better place without him. He was very abusive towards posters who backed the manager. Much of the abuse went unpunished for years. Anyway, that's my last comment off topic.
I actually think Jay was quite hard done by. I rarely agreed with him but he was at least able to back up his opinions with supporting rationale which is more than can be said for some on both sides of the debate. I also think it's unfair to imply that anyone who criticises ECFC isn't a genuine fan - if it wasn't for incredibly critical genuine fans a little over 10 years ago, ECFC wouldn't even exist.
I can assure you that I learned following my initiative last season, that there are those in the pro camp that can be every bit as forceful and blinkered as some of those in the the anti camp. Negative criticism can and often does have a positive intent, the problem is that people expect you to fit neatly into one camp or the other, whereas probably most people view things on a case by case basis and are neither negative or positive all the time.
Amen to that. You are coming across as a ****
Maybe some did go overboard. Back to winning ways last night Gas. The stupid thing is, some of our so called supporters will have been gutted that we bounced back last night. Simply because they have an agenda. By that I mean they are anti Tisdale and they want to be proven right regarding their deluded views. They will also dig at me, because I have clearly nailed my colours to the mast. These people are more transparent than the open door that I am looking through right now. Exeweb is over run with the anti Tisdale mob, who are and always have been the vocal minority. Putting up slogans on an Internet forum, like Tisdale Out, when the man is clearly working miracles, looks silly at best. Great win for your boys at Luton last night. Maybe Rovers are the dark horses? Tough game against Barnet on Saturday I see. That should sort the men from the boys.
The parts in bold are ridiculous. Everyone has a different opinion on what should be done to help the team win - that doesn't mean that anyone wants to see the team lose.
I like you Gas. You sound like a genuine, passionate supporter of your club. I like you even more for stirring up the anti Tisdale mob. The fact that a supporter of another club, who clearly knows his football onions, has entered their pessimistic world and praised the man they love to hate, has really got their goat. Funny.
I like Gas too. What has got my goat is your posts that seem to be aimed at silencing any dissenting opinion. The irony being that when it comes to opinions, I probably share your views on Tisdale and the club, just I'm not arrogant enough to presume that makes everyone else wrong.
