Hecky and Stuey McCall

[Chimpan-A]

I don’t know if it’s a conscious thing to be the polar opposite to Wednesday fans but we have the most miserablist support base in football by some distance. It’s so OTT sometimes it’s unreal. Even when things are going well there is always an arms race to spin it into a negative.

I’d add to that I really struggle to think of another set of supporters in this day and age who refuse to trust anything other than an English “meat and potatoes” manager, preferably one with some prior connection to the club.

This is true. I don’t know if it was here or X where someone posted about our terrible “history” with foreign managers. We have had one previous foreign manager who was essentially shackled from doing the type of thing he did well, and ousted after a couple of months. That’s a rich history right there.
