I thought Mr Blair was being rather patronising actually
No-one expects 9-0 wins and, while chanting for the manager's head when you're winning is not normal, it was because - at the time - we were playing shockingly badly at home, against a team with 10 men, who are third from bottom and almost certainly doomed to League 1.
And it wasn't just about last night's performance, it was about all the previous poor performances, especially the last home game and the fact that we had lost the previous 4 at home.
As I keep saying, you can't take one win or one defeat out of context with the rest of the season. The chants were not just about last night, they were about building frustration over the past 18 months as a whole.
