Good post Spike
If you’re accused of not being a fan just because you hold an opinion not shared by the clique - pathetic in my opinion. You can disagree with someone without having an air of superiority.Spike wrote: ↑Sat Mar 02, 2024 5:43 pmOh no, not this old chestnut again. Usually it takes the form of saying "oh you can't say anything on here without being shot down" or comments about the "forum police" ... When are people going to grasp the concept that you can (within reason) post whatever you want, but others are not obliged to agree with everything you say and are perfectly entitled to say so if they think you are talking nonsense. By your own words Dicky, "a point of view that is different to everyone else" is inevitably going to be disagreed with by everyone else! How could it not be?Dicky Dart wrote: ↑Fri Mar 01, 2024 9:52 pm Makes me laugh and sigh in equal measure when someone has a point of view that is different to everyone else and they get ganged up on and told they’re not fans. Dear me. Bullies rule, eh?
That said, being overwhelmingly disagreed with doesn't necessarily make you wrong, it is just an indication that you are in the minority. Well so what? If you think you are right then stand your ground and argue your case. If you are going to be critical of others (manager, club, board, etc) that's fine, but don't wimp out if you get a bit of flack come back your way from people with other views. If it so happens that 99% of people disagree with you, that is not "ganging up", that is just life! To call this "bullying" is pathetic in my opinion.

Again, like TB he is NOT Houdini and IF we get relegated it will NOT be his fault BUT in11 games he has the opportunity to show the Fans some positive things that will give us a fighting chance to stay up and to disregard the obvious poor performers and bring in [ from his contacts ] at least 3 players with at least NLS class and above all communicate with the Fans , we need this as we have had enough of Dowse's bulls.t and false promises and focus his concentration on the 1st team , providing he does this he will have the backing of Darts fans even IF we go down !!!!!!
The Players have a great incentive to impress Ade , as NOT to do so [ most currently achieving that ] will mean no contract next term , as for cash incentives , no need , quality/genuine players dont need them !!!!
I believe Ade's appointment has given us the chance to enjoy the rest of the season with hopefully the end result we ALL want !!!!!
