For me the main one is not turning on someone after 6 weeks

Bilbao only have 5 points so far this season despite having 6-7 players who are worth anything between 10-20m

If the panic button is pressed in December, then maybe there's a case for it, but after 6 games, it's pretty weak imo

But then, this is exactly how we spent 2 decades with only a couple of seasons of good times. If fans demand so much, and want fast food football, then it will only happen once in a blue moon

If we're going to go back to over reacting to the point where the players daren't touch the ball, then that's the way we'll go

        Last season we didn't TBF, they battered us Mr Carra is right that draw was hard fought (NCFC) - megson, Oct 1, 11:32:05

        On a lot of the Sunderland boards that I read the general agreement is that he's a donkey (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Oct 1, 12:23:19
        
        playing him after his fulham nightmare was a gamble (NCFC) - SCC 28, Oct 1, 12:07:02
        
        I would be shocked if CH played Turner against Chelsea after that performance. (NCFC) - Pit, Oct 1, 12:08:51
        
        of course we could - and we could have won on Saturday too (NCFC) - mr carra, Oct 1, 11:32:03
        
        the manager picks the team and decides the tactics lol (NCFC) - SCC 28, Oct 1, 11:35:04
        
        what was wrong with the tactics? (NCFC) - mr carra, Oct 1, 11:38:24
        
        howson defensive, hardly any width, so much other stuff (NCFC) - SCC 28, Oct 1, 11:47:02
        
        the wide players are injured (NCFC) - mr carra, Oct 1, 11:55:40

        There were shades of the angrys last season (NCFC) - pants, Oct 1, 11:06:41
        
        Yeah there was, PL got a lot of stick for our lack of clean sheets for example. (n/m) (NCFC) - megson, Oct 1, 11:11:59
        
        i don't remember him getting stick (NCFC) - SCC 28, Oct 1, 11:15:15
        
        Which was cleary utter bollocks. (n/m) (NCFC) - megson, Oct 1, 11:32:25
        
        he played a weakened team tbf! (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Oct 1, 11:49:36
        
        Not the same as not trying! Had every right to expect that team to win. (n/m) (NCFC) - megson, Oct 1, 12:45:06
        
        Yep. Remember it. Which now seems ludicrous. (n/m) (NCFC) - Pit, Oct 1, 11:15:07
      - Agree. Cant panic after 6 weeks. But we'll have to see a change soon. (n/m) (NCFC) - Pit, Oct 1, 11:00:10

        i agree each case is different (NCFC) - SCC 28, Oct 1, 11:30:57
        
        But both Sunderland and qpr are much much financially better off than we are (NCFC) - essexcanaryOTBC, Oct 1, 11:24:09
        
        Again though, that very rarely works out in a season (NCFC) - pants, Oct 1, 11:04:40
      - That Lesson! Yep, I agree. (n/m) (NCFC) - megson, Oct 1, 10:58:58
        
        all about not hiring bad managers (NCFC) - SCC 28, Oct 1, 11:02:06
        
        Which is probably why we should actually all try getting behind (NCFC) - essexcanaryOTBC, Oct 1, 11:27:08
        
        people were behind him (NCFC) - SCC 28, Oct 1, 11:51:04
- That happened at fulham. (NCFC) - ingi, Oct 1, 10:06:10
  - Agree. (NCFC) - Martin Peters, Oct 1, 10:43:07
    - I've only done it once (NCFC) - duke of york, Oct 1, 10:55:46
  - We left at 4-0... (NCFC) - Dandy Highburyman, Oct 1, 10:08:40
    - hear hear........ (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Oct 1, 10:16:27
      - Agreed, when the game is dead and we are dreadful leave when you like (NCFC) - megson, Oct 1, 10:28:50
      - Thats fair enough but why do some people leave on 85 when the score is close (NCFC) - Trent_Canary, Oct 1, 10:25:51
        
        dunno, maybe they think the odds are that there wont be another goal... (NCFC) - Cheltenham_Canary, Oct 1, 10:34:59
        
        all about dodging traffic (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Oct 1, 10:39:50
