Just a couple things...

I like you Pants, and you made some good points (you generally do), but sometimes you come across as a bit of a hypocrite and this doesn't help your cause.

You reacted just as poorly when Holt missed that penalty. Which is ridiculous because it's something that happens to all players.

That poor reaction continued when you tried to promote your anti-Holt propaganda by slating Grant for being selfish through his decision to take the pen. You said that Holt should have gave it to Wes, your reason being that Hoolahan was a good, reliable penalty taker, this was despite clear evidence to the contrary emanating from the 10/11 season.

The only difference is that you decided to single out one player instead of what a lot of other people did. I'm not saying that you're the only person to have ever done this (I'm sure I have at least once) but the poor behaviour was there.

You would also become a far more sympathetic character if you left the sly digs to people like SIH (if that's the case) and failed to react to them, but you just seem to allow yourself to sink to that level at times.

Anyway, I'm glad you're back because you usually offer the board a perspective that includes a calm sense of rationality in regards to NCFC, especially on match days :)
