In answer to you and phrankin...

NCFC supporting Mick Dennis is being judged on his stance in "considered" articles, not his observations in match reports.

It's taking a step back, reflecting after the heat-of-the-moment and looking at the bigger picture.

I don't disagree that he says things that we as supporters don't like to hear (as was the case with Chelsea, QPR, Newcastle, West Ham fans etc), but he is reflecting his views in a dispassionate way.

He's already admitted in that article that jaffers posted, what he thinks privately (he bleeds yellow and green like the rest of us), why should his very sensible, un-biased views of the situation mean he is supportive of a manager doing a s**t job, of being supportive for supportive's sake?
