Did you take a year and a bit off when Pulis was in charge and supporters were throwing blown up dinosaurs onto the pitch? 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Aye, I'm defo not shocked that some people don't think we'll get promoted based on the current status of the squad and the way that squad is currently reflected on the pitch. I'm pretty sure Wilder would say the same. But I think the disharmony part is very much overblown. I think there's a lot more connection on display between club and fans than there has been since Karanka was in charge. Not a hard achievement over the last few years but it's definitely not even close to how bad it's been since I've been a fan. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
boro_fan_in_brum 604 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Oh my word. Not sure why someone would sit there and think I'll post about why we wont be promoted, its 2 games in. Just wait for crying out loud. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Rob 4,465 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 also you assume all these times have perfect unity because you are probably odds on just seeing their success mentioned in the news, without being local or focussed on them you not hearing everything like you hear with us because you are reading every snippet possible Link to post Share on other sites
Smogzilla 7,385 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Somebody has definitely forgotten about the Gordon Strachan era. Tiny crowds and utter dross on the pitch. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Smoggy-in-VA 187 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Just a thought...we are trying to emulate the Brentford / Norwich model. I seem to remember that Brentford always seemed to start slowly. It's a long season... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Dynamo Kev 1,552 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 i remember winning the first 4 games of the season back in the day. we never made the play offs and lennie got sacked. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
RiseAgainst 3,777 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 (edited) I remember Robbo being booed off the pitch at the end of the season when Terry Venables came in to save us. We were established PL at the time. Mental when you look back. That gadge throwing their ST card at Steve McClaren was a particular low point, Mogga at Barnsley...nah, I've seen far bigger disconnects between club and fanbase than lately. 6 Link to post Share on other sites
