The so called fan just can't wait to stick a knife in DF, and that's in any which way he can.
I wouldn't mind if he'd fcked up, coz i'd be the first to say it, but to have an agenda on day 1, and to lie to suit the narrative is fckin disgusting.

Let's take a look at the Aaronson sub and analyse that eh.

Now to me that was a brilliant cameo by Aaronson and probably also DF, he had seconds/minutes to get himself into a game, and boy did he put himself about.

Now why did he pop up in those goal scoring areas huh ? Was that DF ? Or Aaronsons mind ?

Htf can fans be so shallow, coz if he scores that miss DF and him are heroes, but he missed it, tough fckin s**t.

But the bigger picture is - He was there ! In the danger zone, how did he get there ? Who's idea was it ?

The game was a cracker, there is still loads to work on with new players and system, IT WILL GET BETTER, they will get to know each other.

Rodon was a bit lost coz Bogle was up front and he's used to having a RB there, he was pushing more over than just being a RCH.

There were more pluses for Bogle than negs - The pen started holding outside the box, their player was holding anorl (very cleverly) and was strong, Bogle held on for too long and the forward cleverly dropped down.

Rodon tried to head out to one of our players, but it fcked up and one of their players hit a 1 in 10 thunderbastard from nowhere !

Get off the fckin managers back ffs, and analyse the game/players with all your oodles and Googles of feckin stats !

Firpo had a great game wandering, but why fckin head it to the keeper for the goal chance huh ????

There's heaps and heaps to analyse about the players performances, so why choose DF ??
Sometimes there is no point stating the obvious. There are plenty on here whose opinions align with yours.

Missed chances up top and a lack of concentration at key moments at the back was why that ended 3-3.

If this becomes a pattern I will get concerned, but it was the first game of the season. Disappointing result but we will have a few of those this season, as will every other team.

If we happen to lose to WBA on Saturday we’ll be 5 points adrift of some of our primary rivals after just 2 games.

Given last year’s shenanigans, on some level I’d be a mite concerned.

Full back position is basically the same as ours.

They just like a midfield runner and Farke doesn't, he prefers the control.

He's a cautious coach, think even his fans agree with that? His midfield setup is just another reflection of it.

Up to personal preference whether you like it or not
I like controlling a match and creating over 4 times as many chances as the opposition. Do that every match and you should win the majority of them.
Can any of you ba****d c*nts sell me a sh*t castle in need of f*cking renovation? I have turrets.

I'll be concerned if we draw, anything less a victory & we'll be chasing once again. :(

Following the game on Saturday, there will still be 95.6% of games to play.

I won’t be panicking irrespective of the result, but I get your drift Dave.

Someone keeps repeating over and over and over and over that DF is no good, but not a word gets spoke to him or a ban.

I mentioned Israel once and the problems against Palestine - I was banned for a week.

Yet a rivers of blood reference goes un-checked along with all the other migrant non-sense.

I couldn't give a fck, but it makes one wonder.

I keep away from social / political and general chat debate threads. I personally consider it prudent to keep your own counsel on such matters. This is purely a football forum for me and I avoid threads which deviate onto other topics.

You are a heart on your sleeve poster, I am also of the same ilk to some degree and as such I avoid getting drawn into debate on often complex and divisive matters.

Kenny, if someone has a differing opinion or purely comments on the perceived negatives, that is their choice. As difficult as it often is to not react, perhaps no reaction is the best course of action. You add credence to such posts by engaging.

There are no easy games in this league, faaip, that "tough" sentiment could and should as easily apply to the opposition's view of games against us.
