Simmops I know a lot of the team actively read this forum and see the negativity on the team board, and it really has a bad effect on them
Gunter was one who read this place a lot and constantly saw the negativity

Westwood52 They were not exactly pedal to the metal against Luton were they.

Zip Yeah that’s a good post Snowers. I feel the same. When we play well we are a nice, easy on the eye team to watch. Nice being the operative word. We need to be a bit more cynical and have a bit more of an edge when we need it.
Moore is an odd one because Jnr who is far sharper than I has been saying the same about him and doesn’t think he is a good captain. Yet when we went to the two games in December you could hear him constantly barking out orders to the team. I was impressed. Having said that I don’t think he would be in the side if all four of our centre backs were fit. It would be Morrison as first choice with TMac alongside him. Failing that Morrison and Holmes would then be my second option.

He may be vocal, but that doesn't mean he's a good captain (not meant as a dig at you). Criticism of his positioning and organisation of the defence seems valid when we've let in a fair few goals from defenders caught in no mans land (Holmes, Esteves) and I suspect the reason Moore throws his body on the line for so many good blocks is because the defence and he isn't organised well enough to have prevented the opportunity in the first place.
I think he's stale and he's seen his ambitions die with us. He should have left a couple of seasons ago.

Lower West I'm indifferent. We've stuttered along for the majority of this season. There's little discernible improvement on many of last seasons performances, in terms of developing a style of play. With too many of the squad inconsistent in terms of performance game to game. Attacking threat is often extremely limited and blunt. We are far too easy to play against. Predictable and easily exposed to pace down the flanks.
