Haven't been on here for a while as there were so many people just saying negative stuff I just turned this site off.
I've now come back to see what the comments are like now, it's so funny how we all think we no better, I no this is a site where we show are passion for our club, but I really do think we should trust in the powers with in out club, yes they don't get them right every time and mistakes happen, SM being our manager I think was the best thing for the club, we were going seriously wrong, to many new players at one time, players being slagged off in public by the previous manager, now we have someone who can put an arm around a player, encourage the players who have no quite got to where the team need them to be, but isn't afraid to drop them or change there position, I look at our team now and it's a completely different team, anyone who thinks it was down to rhino you are very mistaken, big Sam was in the stand and the team played for him and it's carried on, he talks and they listen, people may say it's all long ball, defensive, but it's results, he has done a cracking job in a very short time, I look back at moyes he did this year on year with hardly any funds, if moyes had a top striker his team's would of been at the door of the top 4, he left and what have we done, big money spent and not alot, hopeful with Sam we can get into the elite, we may need some luck along the way and it maybe to late this year, but he needs credit where credits due, get behind our team threw good and bad, not just the good times.

Yep I agree. Said in another post. imagine Lukaku in Moyes' last team. The one that knocked Man Utd out of the semis and lost 2 1 to Chelsea. That team with Lukaku would have done ok. But back to your point yes Sam needs time now to lay a foundation. Remember he is not so young so Unsworth may get his chance in the future.

Yes good post Simon. As far as luck is concerned I have always believed that you made your own luck, however when it came to being jammy Liverpool always got the top award. However now since Big Sam took charge we have got a penalty against them, Mane made the wrong choice in not passing and Newcastle hit the post twice. Liverpool on the other hand had our penalty against them and had a goal disallowed in their last game. Hopefully this trend will continue.
By the way for my old friends on here I have morphed from 1940Mike and several other Mike designations to Blue Mike since I lost all my passwords and my old e-mail. Still the same old Mike.

Good post Simon.
I think BlueMike sounds a lot better than 1940Mike as well mate.
