Why are you "sure the board will sort it"? In 20 yrs, they've only got one decision right

No-one's talking about not supporting the team. Everyone on here wants the best for the club. But what happens when people on here see what's coming? They're shouted down by the usual blind faith and tribal bollocks of football supporters.

I'm not even saying those who see what's coming deserve credit. It's just a messageboard. I *am* saying that those who get it wrong - again and again and again - never learn, spend each and every season shouting down those who can see the woods for the trees, call them "negative" or "not a true fan" or whatever... then it's like someone presses the reset button: as everyone clings to the myopic belief that the same bunch of idiots running this club who screw it up again and again will somehow miraculously get it right this time.

It's amazing. Don't their repeated, systemic failures put doubt in your mind? The definition of insanity is doing the same thing again and again in the hope of a different result. And however patronising or condescending folk find me, it doesn't make me any less of a fan for pointing it out.
