Good for you Walt. I really do love the 'I told you so, I was right' type of post.
I'm not sure those were abused for thinking he was the 'wrong man' but more for the way they went about putting into words that he was that 'wrong man'.
Some of the glee on here about being 'right' almost wants me to change my mind and give Brendan my full backing.
I know what you mean. I actually wavered after the Stoke debacle on the grounds that it would be impossible for Brendan to ever win over the fans again (obviously notwithstanding that for some he could do the quadruple and not win them over). What swung me back was seeing some of those fans falling over themselves to stick the boot into the boss, completely disrespecting not just him but the institution which is OUR football club, all of our football club. Then you get the "I was right all along" nonsense even though we almost won the league last year (predicted that did they?) and the silliness whereby last season was all down to Suarez and not the boss, this time it's nothing to do with Suarez not being there and all down to the boss.
I've had enough of being dictated to by "the lads", had enough of being told I'm not a real fan when I've followed the team up hill and down dale for 30 odd years. I've had enough of it, but I can't control what other people do, only what I do myself. I'm backing the manager, because that's what I feel like doing. The more they slag him, the more I back him.
