No point bleating miserably on here all the time. The majority don’t share your views.

The results seem to suggest the pitch hinders rather than helped before last night.
For those who remember the County Ground, this is a bowling green.

And I completely agree. It is dire to watch.

Not great to watch certainly, but KC has clearly decided that most League 1 teams have more "tecnicians" than we do, meaning that "nullifying" will be the order of the day in most games.

He's probably right, so I'm willing to put up with less entertainment if it helps keep us up this season. However, there needs to be signs of evolution, so that we can mark our mark next season. There's also a difference to me between a defensive mindset and bringing everyone back and just hoofing it clear as soon as we go a goal up. That's exactly what we used to do with Atkins in charge all those years ago and you've got to be very good defensively and very lucky to pull it off - and of course it's painful viewing for the fans.

Agreed but also most pitches then were a mud fest by winter with little or no grass in the goals or centre

In my head the pitch was like a putting green, the sun was always shining and the stands were packed with happy smiling fans. Every game was a pulse raising roller coaster of entertainment and our team packed full of players who deserved an international call up? I seem to vaguely remember the odd mishap and moment of frustration somewhere, but that’s all a distant memory now?

You forgot the part where we were winning every game, with promotion nearly every season and relegation or re-election was for other teams?

I can remember Leyton Orients being one of the worst; ankle deep mud and far worse than the County Ground.

You have been moaning about the Cobblers style of play for years. Reckon you gave up going some time ago but still happy to have a moan.  It's your opinion so it matters!

Love the way he brings Coca Cola and Teddy Bears into a 'debate'. He does like to moan though ...non stop it seems! Technically it is an opinion so fair enough.

I don't see why you have to be so critical when others suggest that the Cobblers style of play this and last season is less than pleasing on the eye. I would have thought that was a statement of fact. I actually think that we have quite a few players who are quite useful, it's just that they have been taught to sit back, defend like dogs and hoof.  20-30% possession will not see us winning many games. Perhaps things will 'evolve' over the next 10 games and opinions may change.

Correct. Boothroyd, JFH, and Curly have done it for me. Nice to see that you have gone back to your "you were not there" mantra.

And before that it was Johnson, Gray, Calderwood and Fenwick. Has it ever occurred to you that you might be setting the bar a bit high?

I actually didnt mind Stuart Gray, until that fiasco culminating at Leeds. He totally lost the plot. And I am now banned from Elland Road.

Fair play to you. I’ve tried for the best part of 40+ years to get banned from Elland Road, not succeeded once..

It was strange. They allowed me entrance, but then turned me around , and accused me of being drunk. But they never confiscated my ticket. As it was a barcode turnstile, I thought that I would try another entrance. Bingo way in. Make my way towards the away end, and I am surrounded by stewards. Carried away, and filmed by some bloke with a big camera. "Now then petal, dont thee lie to me, how did thee get back in?" No comment. They let me go when the last train back south had left. What they didnt know was, that I was staying in York that weekend, and went for the closest taxi rank. I  flashed the dollars and got a result.
