I don't post very often these days, but always enjoyed the banter on the fishy. Its now become very dull with the same all sh@t and so much negativity nowadays.
Whilst everybody is entitled to their opinions it seems that's only acceptable here if you agree with those that are shouting loudest and fail to see anything but the negative.
We're three matches in and after reading the posts here it seems the season is over. Its true to say we've not had a great start but we've not lost yet either. Its also true to say we've been unlucky with lots off injuries, suspensions and illness.
Anyway I'm really bored with the fishy now and so won't be wasting my time posting or even reading this now. I'm a s/t holder, and will continue to support my team home and away. If we all keep the faith and stick together in getting behind the team who knows the future of our beloved football club may actually be positive.

I had a break of a few months over the summer to avoid the silly season. Perhaps worth coming back in a month or two when we'll have a better idea of whether or not we really have a lot to moan about!

Your choice Nige but a forum is to express all views, whether you agree with them or not. Those like myself who are critical of the team and management are cast as negative Victor Meldrews, when in fact i care deeply for the club and think it is not being managed properly. It isn't just the last 3 games either. I felt Hurst should have been removed with Scott or at least at the end of the season.
That is just my view and doesn't make it right, wrong, indifferent or negative. If you feel the board is too negative for you, then so be it.

The post above sums up for me what is great about the fishy and if people wish to leave the board for a time that's their choice. However, saying this board is too negative and won't be posting any more seems even more negative. A couple of wins and a hat trick by LJL and every body will be talking about automatic promotion and LJL being top scorer, what will happen then, will the negative posters leave stating it's too positive for them

And all this because some people don't understand the difference between 'negative' and 'critical'.

They'll stop posting as much won't they ? Probably understandable as fans tend to focus more on "fixing problems". What worries me is the lack of constructive solutions. (especially the "support" (see being supportive) one) More often than not it's just pure frustration which leads to over-reactive hysteria. Put it this way.... I've yet to see anyone say "Well I criticized LJL but thought he had a good match on Saturday" If there's no balance, fairness and people are just sticking to their guns or agendas, I can see why the OP says "agree with those that are shouting loudest and fail to see anything but the negative."

Critical (or negative) is fine just so long as you're offering constructive solutions. While I couldn't disagree with most of yours more, I give you credit at least you're offering them constructively.
