Re: knee jerk 'fans'
Gentlemen,
I fail to see why any criticism of the management should be regarded by some as a sign of treason, deserving an immediate death sentence for anyone found guilty.
We have a good squad of players at Stanley. When they play well, we praise them. When they don't, sometimes consistently, we are entitled to criticise.
Now here's the rub! In the after-match video, Jimmy Bell emphasised how the players had been drilled all week about the way in which we were going to beat Newport.
Having attended every home game this season, I suggest that the team performed pretty much to script and yet we were simply outplayed by Newport. Why?
Was it the players fault, as inferred by the management, or were we playing to the wrong 'script'?
