Rupp is better than most fans think but if we had a fully fit and up to speed

squad, he wouldn't be in the starting 11 (IMO) surely our best midfield 3 would be PLM, Normann and Gilmour?

Rupp very highly rated (NCFC) - SCC 28, Sep 17, 13:42:08
- So the narrative flips to it all being down to the evil fans not supporting the players (NCFC) - Jim, Sep 17, 14:22:05
  - There's a flaw in your logic really. (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Sep 17, 15:08:17
    - Re Normann, you're right (NCFC) - jamesward, Sep 17, 15:13:21
      - IIIIIIIFFFFFF Normann can balance with Gilmour then my opinion will change. (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Sep 17, 15:31:15
      - I don't think his passing is so great that it negates how lightweight he is. (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Sep 17, 15:27:46
        
        I know what you mean (NCFC) - jamesward, Sep 17, 15:31:47
        
        Yep! But I don't think we have a proper #10 anymore. Not that Stiepi ever was. (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Sep 17, 15:35:16
        
        It's Dowell or Todd isn't it? (NCFC) - jamesward, Sep 17, 15:45:09
        
        Todd certainly. (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Sep 17, 15:55:10
    - 👍👍 (n/m) (NCFC) - helvegtheowl, Sep 17, 15:11:55
  - Nonsense he’s reminding fans it’s out job to support the team … (NCFC) - loz, Sep 17, 14:31:06
    - I’d give up if I were you - you’ll blind them with logic ! (n/m) (NCFC) - helvegtheowl, Sep 17, 15:13:16
    - The fans have been supporting the team (NCFC) - jamesward, Sep 17, 14:34:27
    - Any reason why they need reminding? (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Sep 17, 14:32:57
      - Because we have a lot of supporters that aren’t great at supporting … (NCFC) - loz, Sep 17, 14:34:54
        
        nonsense (NCFC) - munter, Sep 17, 14:39:03
    - The fans have been supporting the team. Not sure we need reminding . (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Sep 17, 14:31:41
      - we should be grateful for nil points at this stage (n/m) (NCFC) - KevinBond, Sep 17, 14:49:30
  - Oh Jim, that isn't what's being said. Merely get behind the team whoever is wearing the sh (n/m) (NCFC) - seminated_woolly, Sep 17, 14:24:28
    - This club (and a section of our support) seem to “make up” abuse of our own players (NCFC) - Jim, Sep 17, 14:27:23
      - sometimes folk say really stupid stuff (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Sep 17, 14:31:22
        
        Not really. Please remind me what I said? I assume something to do (NCFC) - Jim, Sep 17, 14:34:41
        
        "Not really" (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Sep 17, 14:56:02
      - "Our players see abuse but others get more so it's ok". Basically man up then? (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Sep 17, 14:30:22
- managerial 101 - defend yr players in public (n/m) (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Sep 17, 13:45:56
  - Sure (NCFC) - SCC 28, Sep 17, 13:47:25
    - not my take on what he said (or southwell's recall) (n/m) (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Sep 17, 14:07:40
      - Indeed he’s just making the point those in the dressing room … (NCFC) - loz, Sep 17, 14:37:53
      - I just mean by first name on the team sheet (NCFC) - SCC 28, Sep 17, 14:09:52

        He's clearly been made aware of the massive tilt-off on twitter last weekend (NCFC) - NJ_Canary, Sep 17, 14:15:54
