I don't think it's fair to say he doesn't like Angus.

He's got an injury and we don't know if there's been related niggles in training that have got Tim the nod. Let's be honest, if you were DW, new to the club, you might well just opt to play safe with Tim. He's got pedigree.

I think we all need to calm down and stop overthinking all this. Yesterday was a cock up. There's much to be optimistic about.

        I would be an utter twat if I was defending DS (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Feb 5, 18:43:38

        I don’t get what point you’re trying to make (NCFC) - Under soil heating, Feb 5, 17:54:40
        
        None of that is controversial (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Feb 5, 19:12:59
        
        Smith had over a year people did give him a chance ? (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Feb 5, 19:29:47

        He got horrific stick yesterday. (n/m) (NCFC) - norwaay, Feb 5, 18:11:55
        
        Not in the immediate aftermath of the goal (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Feb 5, 18:19:07
        
        No. There was applause. For the girl who died. (NCFC) - norwaay, Feb 5, 18:22:04

        Indeed. (NCFC) - norwaay, Feb 5, 18:20:27
        
        Exactly we had him for over a year and made us worse … (NCFC) - loz, Feb 5, 18:02:31
        
        I’m fine letting smith go (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 5, 17:34:19
        
        What is 'The current shambles'? - the loss to table topping Burnley? (NCFC) - Bravo win or die, Feb 5, 17:38:24
        
        I've 180'd on it. I was critical of the DS critics and the talk of identity (NCFC) - Captain Bligh, Feb 5, 19:52:42
        
        The defending yesterday was utterly abysmal (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 5, 17:49:17
      - Isn't it entirely possibly (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Feb 5, 17:27:57
        
        Well if that's the case, I'm not sure why we didn't sack him earlier because (NCFC) - Bravo win or die, Feb 5, 17:34:58
        
        So is the definition of 'shambles' how you perform against Burnley? (n/m) (NCFC) - Bravo win or die, Feb 5, 18:13:59
        
        Was obvious he tried to mage us more pragmatic … (NCFC) - loz, Feb 5, 17:30:08
    - A team comfortable in possession … (NCFC) - loz, Feb 5, 17:08:41
      - This wasn't a Q for you (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Feb 5, 17:25:42
        
        Because the other side were perfectly happy for us to have it … (NCFC) - loz, Feb 5, 17:27:36
        
        Just a couple of small things (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Feb 5, 17:35:39
        
        Webber kept hold of sinani because smith liked him pre season … (NCFC) - loz, Feb 5, 18:05:31
        
        Let's see the source for this (n/m) (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Feb 5, 18:09:41
        
        The source is Dean smith himself … (NCFC) - loz, Feb 5, 18:14:43
        
        So there is no source for your claim that Webber kept him (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Feb 5, 18:28:32
        
        Smith regularly picked poor players tbh not sure why you are so stern in your defence of… (NCFC) - loz, Feb 5, 18:46:16
        
        Do you think we should have stuck with Smith? (n/m) (NCFC) - paulg, Feb 5, 17:42:34
        
        no (n/m) (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Feb 5, 17:44:17
        
        So what exactly is your point? (NCFC) - paulg, Feb 5, 17:51:32
        
        Many, many fans entirely blamed Smith (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Feb 5, 17:54:58
        
        Smith had over a year Wagner has had 4 games what are you talking about ????? (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Feb 5, 18:06:10
        
        See above, USH's post. (n/m) (NCFC) - paulg, Feb 5, 17:58:58

    - We weren't bad defensively yesterday (NCFC) - paulg, Feb 5, 16:36:31
      - Quite important areas though (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 5, 16:40:03
        
        Very much, and so we lost (NCFC) - paulg, Feb 5, 16:53:30
        
        We clearly can defend corners (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Feb 5, 17:02:59
        
        Keeper thing (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 5, 17:22:08

    - Gunn is injured (NCFC) - Cardiff Canary, Feb 5, 16:21:32
      - 67% (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 5, 16:27:48
        
        And I didn’t think Gunn was injured before (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 5, 16:28:42

        Not sure what you are getting at we at least looked vaguely exciting … (NCFC) - loz, Feb 5, 16:25:16
        
        The point is clear (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 5, 16:29:44
        
        That we are a work in progress and there has been some questionable recruitment … (NCFC) - loz, Feb 5, 16:32:28
        
        He defo should be (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 5, 16:40:45
        
        It was a relief (NCFC) - Cardiff Canary, Feb 5, 16:24:25
        
        Missing the point totally (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 5, 16:29:27
        
        The point was a strawman argument (n/m) (NCFC) - Cardiff Canary, Feb 5, 19:11:00
        
        how is it a strawman argument? (n/m) (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Feb 5, 20:16:25
        
        Not sure what you are getting at we at least looked vaguely exciting … (NCFC) - loz, Feb 5, 16:22:20
        
        There was a stupid assumption among some that somehow we were a top 2 team being held back (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Feb 5, 18:42:25
      - We were regularly beating bang average (NCFC) - SCC 28, Feb 5, 16:01:30
- Chris Goreham confirmed it had gone out (NCFC) - Cellophane Flowers, Feb 5, 15:47:17
  - I still can't see how they missed it (NCFC) - Kangol Canary, Feb 5, 16:22:08
