Bristol City v Swansea City : Matchday Thread UPDATED ! on 16:13 - Oct 29 by guthrieintherain
Come off it he never called anyone anything picking on posters not posts unfair this site needs some moderators who are fair. Playing to the audience I would call it at least you got a couple of pats on the back off posters who have no time for him well done good to see our barrister mod is fair and impartial.

He called all who dont see things the way of the brighter football posters on here "moronic" as an ensemble. Why do you constantly stick up for the guy ? He clearly has some good knowledge but his constant arguing on points to the nth degree and his willingness to attack posters who don't agree with his points is very tiresome and detrimental to the site. Also constantly causes derailment of threads - such as this match day one ?

I read the thread through saw no mention of him calling anyone a moron and he said he didn't either. He asked where this was said I enjoy this forum but the double standards stands out like a sore thumb.
I like fairness that's why i stick up for him would do the same for anyone on here if I thought they were being singled out.

Seems like we have two teams at the moment. Set up first half with defensive team, full of hard workers and then second half we unleash the attacking unit, at least we do have more options now when we are chasing games.
Even when you know, you never know?

As I said he used the word "moronic" So not a personal attack on one poster, just a general slur on those unnamed ones whose opinion he doesn't rate and and therefore deems as "very foolish or stupid" ( the definition of moronic ) Not a nice way to describe fellow posters and Swans supporters, surely ?

I have seen far worse on here from posters who have not been banned. My opinion if someone else had said it they would still be posting now.

I agree seen far worse. Not sure he helps himself though ? If I had said it then yes I would have felt hard done by. Same with you as you seem a reasonable moderate poster. Had I said it then gone on to argue my right to say it with a mod, plus had form for arguing with the mods, then maybe I would feel less sorry for myself.

Not a bad effort At least you dont have old agenda
It's pretty repetitive really.
Some criticise then exactly the same replies come in from exactly the same posters.
How has Ogbeta strenghtened the squad exactly.
I think we all agree not all our signings ( loan and permanent) have strengthened the side. Whether they have failed to impress or not had their chance, the end result is the same. Ultimately I guess no manager is going to pick players he doesn't think will do the job he needs them to do ? Not sure how that affects today's game though ?

I’ve also banned other posters at his request when he pointed out things that people said to him which were completely unwarranted. I asked him not to Call posters moronic he said no and to ban him. So I did.

you have a good approach, operating on an interesting level, and doing a fine education piece to all. I continue to follow with interest.

People need to look at the bigger picture, who reads this site, how old they are and who invests in us to make it better.

But amazingly when we are supposedly set up as a defensive unit we concede goals just as we did against Reading
I still cant understand how our great manager a defender in his playing days still cant get us defensively secure

Not sure how the poor play this half from our players is quite the sole fault of the manager….
Because he picks the team tells them how to play
Why is he still using players out of position?
How often have posters on here questioned the use of LAti and Sorinola as wingbacks
We have pace in Oki-Flex and Finn Stevens whilst Flex has seen some minutes a s a sub Stevens has seen little action.
Again today we started with slow ponderous football despite Bristol have a third of the possession compared to us they had more corners and more attempts at goal.
Yes individual players can and will have mares especially if they are set up to fail....again naturally right footed Cabango is being played on the left.....

Who knows ? I may be completely pants at it but all we’re trying to do is make the site good for all without endless insults. Also if someone asks me to ban them, I’ll do it.

You can always find a negative out of a positive, I thought you didn't aim digs?
There is a genuine question in there
most who post on here agree we are shaky in defence...which for me I find strange given our manager spent his playing days as a defender
SO again not allowed to criticise?
THe only positive to day is we rescued a point ....I am always happy with a point away from home but maybe with a different team selection and not reverting to his "obsession with possession" and walking football we could have won

Second half last weekend and today was sneaking back to old ways.

"Started with slow ponderous football " Possibly something to do with Bristol having a bright attacking start and almost being out of sight in the first 20 minutes or so ? As the match wore on we came into it and in the second half Martin changed it around. Not our best day at the office, but give some credit to Bristol City

He's not a great manager. We may be getting things right at the moment, but it's taken 70 plus games to get where we are. That's not the sign of a good manager
