They really know how to talk to their paying customers down at SMS, dont they ? And since when has the Echo been their official mouthpiece ?

Dunc, I am largely in your corner on these things, but if you've got something to say, can you please bloody spell it out and not be so theatrical ?

No, its non-code for "he's a pompous arse"

What utterly ridiculous spin. Everytime they have even slightly looked like converging, Lowe has runied it by insisting he is in charge in the new arrangement. Christ, and you still claim to be balanced ? Every one of your posts takes the first opportunity to blame Crouch.

Yes yes (at first) yes no

Jesus, where else do you suggest ? Crouch is known to have made several direct approaches, only to be dismissed out-of-hand.

You are such a pompous arse.

Yep. Problems reading again...

Congratulations Frank, you can have the last word, seeing as boring me into submission is so important to you. Go fill yer boots. the floor is yours..

Yes.

So, what were the flaws you were shouting out ?

Stop it now, my sides are hurting. Your lack of self-awareness is hillarious...

Erm, no its not. You're talking crap (as usual)

Of course it does.

A voice of reason. Unfortunately, too many people are too scared by the consequences to take this course of action. Lowe has them by the short-and-curlies.. Also, some like the getting the buzz of being proven to be hard-core Über fans.

OK, point out how and where I have changed my opinion back-and-forth in order to seek attention. Oh...

Does it f**king matter ? Its a rhetorical question about what the f**k Wilde is thinking..

The player's confidence is so fragile it doesnt matter what the fans do inside the stadium. It only takes the opposition making it clear they wont just roll over and quit, or saying "boo" to our players, to make ours do the rolling over and quitting.......

Well they are wrong, so couldnt care less what you think. I have been straight-down-the-line, consistent and more-often-than-not correct, for several years. People like you are just piissed at being wrong and shown up to be wrong. Oh, and the first two lines of my post that you have taken exception to does not indicate that I am anti-everything.

Compare and contrast with Crouch who wasnt paid and didnt take compensation despite knowing the club needed the money. Why is it still in doubt that Crouch, for all his failings, is better for the club than Lowe ?

Whether it works or not, I dont really care. However, it is great to see a unifying force at work in our fan-base, and from what I read the spirit last time round was great and there were big smiles amongst the marchers. What has completely shocked me is the amount of personal abuse the young lad organising this and the last one has received on the Echo website comments. We either have some real waaankers amongst the fan base, the Echo site attracts whinging nutjobs (some of the complaining on there about a variety of topics from IKEA to two flies crawling up a wall is ridiculous and only serves to support my theory that some people will be anti everything just to get some attention - we see that on here two from the likes of Frank's cousin), or there is a real PR job at work again in the affairs of SFC.

How would you know how often I have reported something (FYI its about three times since this latest site incarnation resurrected itself) ? Perhaps you should spend a little less time beleiving the hype of those with an agenda.

Dont they ? I seem to recall a dyed-in-the-wool Lowe Luvvie admonishing the contributors to a nostalgia thread a few weeks back, claiming that we have no right to refer back to the past in case it reflects badly on the present.
