Makes you no better not accepting it though? Patience man, Where's this trait gone these days. Sad really.Makes you a better fan if you just accept it
We are as much to blame if we don't revolt

Jesus man. What form does this 'Revolt' your suggesting take? Oh and why we should be expected to 'WIN EVERY SINGLE GAME IN THIS LEAGUE' is based on what exactly? We are in this position because sadly, for various reasons, it's were we belong currently.
This. I couldn’t understand the lack of protests against Short. I was constantly being told I wasn’t a proper fan for not supporting the team.Makes you a better fan if you just accept it

The only things that set us apart from all the other clubs in this league are off-field. We average almost 30,000 in a 49,000 stadium that has hosted internationals, and our training facilities are amongst the best in the country.
Sadly, off-field activity doesn't get you promoted, and on the field, the players that now wear the shirt are just as bad, if not worse than their opponents. The last bit of quality left in the squad was paid off or flogged in the summer. We have been left with the rejects and cast-offs that nobody wanted. Just because someone wears the shirt that Phillips, Quinn, Bent, Gyan, Pickford, Henderson etc once wore doesn't mean they are of that top-end international standard, or even close to it. They are a 3rd division plodder in a premier league shirt. They are a pig with lipstick on.
That is 100% down to the owner, and he has to shoulder the blame for turning us into a mid-table 3rd division club so quickly.

You might as well just get this printed on a bedsheet (remember everything needs to be in CAPITALS), take your top off (as long as your belly hangs over your jeans) and shout at some inate object, building or shop to get your point across to the board and club. That will do the trick I reckon

Our fans are always very apathetic. When the team loses the players are applauded off like heroes who have tried their little hearts out bless them, when 90% of the time they have done nothing to warrant applause. Does it achieve anything showing discontent? Sometimes it does, but apathy achieves nothing - that is a certainty.

And that’s it .
Those 30k crowds won’t carry on if we go years in League 1.
The day we “do a Darlington” and move out of an unsustainable stadium to a small league one sized ground will be the day any hope of ever getting back to the top disappears for good.
However, that’s a very doom ridden outlook and I sincerely hope that a transfer window and a few months in charge for Parky and Parkin will see us on the way to being promoted.
Revolt ? I think they already know we are not happy. A boycott would just speed up the scenario I’ve described above .

I’m setting up a Pitchfork & Burning Torch stall outside the Fan Zone on Saturday if anyone’s interested.
they had a platform but the people interviewing were more interested in keeping the exclusives than asking anything remotely pertinent.

You know what'll really help a team clearly low on confidence? A whole stadium booing and showing their anger because we've lost a few games (even though actually we played pretty well in the last 3). We have no god given right to beat these teams, we're here because we deserve to be after the past 6-7 years. Stop going on like absolute fannies and back the players (which thankfully most in the stadium already do)

You have no choice but to accept it. It's reality.Makes you a better fan if you just accept it
Doesn't mean you shouldn't want better though. We won't progress without a complete change at the top. These blokes won't take us up.

Why? Just coz the lad has an opinion? At the very least this club should a competitive championship side and I can't understand how some fans are happy to be wallowing around league 1. This is literally the worst league position ever in our history and people are angry this is what it's come to.

I totally get that but now is not the time to start acting like dicks. We have a new manager who , despite the results, seems to have improved us . We also have the potential of new investment to improve the playing squad . How will acting like the Mags improve our results?
