the writing is on the wall mate.. read it or ignore itI'm amazed people are kicking off so much. Weir needs time to completely rebuild us ala O'Deiscoll at Donny. We must be patient.

I don't think KMac would have made must difference as we rarely ot the ball forward in the first half( no shots at all in the first 40 minutes( and the second half we seemed to bypass central midfield.
i meant for this season. 'that' writing about selling anyone at any price any time has been in neon lights since jones and birchenall leftThe writing hasn't changed recently. We'll sell any player of value given an offer, and will continue to do so until someone subdidises us again. If we make it to promotion in these circumstances it'll be a huge achievement.
ear worm alertI beg your pardon , i never promised you a Rose Garden .
As their fans sang, they were simply to good for us.
If we can't perform because we might be selling a player then we might as well all pack up now.How did anybody expect us to perform yesterday with all the crap flying around about McDonald.
If he was injured it doesn't rock moral situations like this do.
Not to worry the trendy phrase is patience the club is in transition.
The board should be able to push and hide behind that one for a few years at least.

It is of course important that we don't over react based on one performance. However we need to recognise the warning signs that are clearly there. Against Notts County we played some nice passing football , albeit against ten men for most of the game. Despite our domination however we rarely tested their keeper until the last five minutes and lacked a real threat up front. The Burton game was a typical United league cup performance of recent years and probably best quickly forgotten. Yesterday listening to the commentary and reading comments and reports from people who saw the game it was clear we couldn't compete with them from first minute to last. As their fans sang, they were simply to good for us. I couldn't name their keeper as the commentator never needed to mention him. In addition to yesterday we have the Kmac situation and whatever people say about him DW has clearly designed our style play around him.
So where does that all leave us. If Kmac goes we either have to find a suitable replacement (unlikely) or alter the style of play to suit the squad we have left. Either way we need to address the total lack of a goal threat throughout the team. We also need to be able to adapt the style away from home to prevent us been overrun as we were yesterday. A box to box midfielder would probably help here. As we stand there are probably enough poor teams to see us mid table but our lack of goals will see us unlikely to challenge seriously for the play offs which is where I think we should be aiming.
Football fans are ridiculous. One win and optimism is sky high, one defeat and we're going to be relegated/not have a club.
Final point, if Weir has built the team around McDonald with no one who can take his position is pretty stupid, as he made it clear he was looking to move elsewhere. And continuing that, to me, Weir looked a bit lost as he walked out for second half. Not sure what others thought of him??
Didn't we have over 20 shots against Notts?!
P.S I couldn't get used to us in that kit yesterday what so ever. Didn't like seeing us in it and it almost made me feel uncomfortable.
