Hey up Mr Chip, I'm on no wind up and I'm no loid thank you very much, and I'm also no yes man who will follow the pack at the first sign of trouble.
What we learned back in the day was to support our team through thick and thin, even back then in the day you got the odd few who would never be happy no matter what, it's just unfortunate we seem to have more of them now.
Fair enough you might want DW, Barker, Antwi, Elliott, Boland, and no doubt a few others I might have missed out, and one things for certain they will all eventually go, but they will be replaced by others that will all make mistakes at some point, then what, let's start hounding them out.
I wish I could be arsed to read your posts after the Luton, Orient, Leeds, Port Vale and Oldham games when all the above played a major part in those performances that were reckoned by most to be the best football we had ever played.
Your posts are just so one sided and cock eyed it's not true, if you want to slag players off for making mistakes then fair enough, just be consistant, i.e. Nelson going to ground too easily for the fist goal, no mention, Robson losing possesion too easily for the 2nd goal, no mention, Brown missing an absolute sitter 5 yard tap in to equalise, no mention, Barker missing a header from 8 yards, priceless just what we wanted.
There's been a few decent posts from the pessemists lately, (yours excluded obviously) regarding team spirit or lack of it and I do think that's a problem, cos I do think some of the new signings have just come for a decent salary and will jump ship anyway at the first opportunity for a couple of extra bob.
But I also think there is a fear factor amongst the players, no-one is prepared to take a chance or even want the ball anymore, so like I've said in the past we need more of

and less of
And yes I know you give total support whilst you're there

but you also make sure you make up for it when you're not
