Anyone worried about what’s going on at Oufc, what tigers implementing and how we move forward. I BEG YOU watch dan Harris’s interview on ifollow. The man is so impressive and makes so much sense in what is being done behind the scenes. It’s infectious and hard not to get just a little excited about the changes being made to our club, that could seriously effect future transfer policy #proudhistorybrightfuture
He comes across extremely well, I agree. Seems balanced, acknowledges past errors, but rightly points out that the focus has to be on the future because that’s all the people at the club can influence.
I personally have no issue with people being negative, it’s when they don’t display any kind of balance that I find it a bit disappointing - things aren’t always good and they aren’t always bad either, so a measured balance would be nice. Likewise twisting words to fit their narrative. For example Robinson saying he hoped to get business done early, but rather than accepting he said hoped - not expected, not definitely would, but hoped - certain people have twisted that against him, like he has broken some kind of promise to the fans. In fact, on 22nd May he even predicted it would be quiet during this period: “Everyone is scrambling around before they go on holiday and the World Cup, then it will die down a bit before a manic rush.”
I’m fine with where we are at the moment. We, as fans, can mostly agree on which areas we’re still lacking and if that’s the case, I am sure the club is also very aware. It’s a bit frustrating having to wait and refreshing the club website a hundred times a day, but we still have plenty of time to assemble a competitive squad for next season.
Totally agree. Nothing wrong with being negative (I won’t agree with u [emoji6] ) , I just prefer to wait until it’s happened before judging, no point panicking were not signing anyone especially on day one of a transfer window, when in all likelihood we will. No point in the mad panic some went into over relegation around xmas, when as it turns out we were fine. Glass half full v half empty. I can understand that, I’m happy not having the stress and worry personally. It’s those that almost seems to get a kick out of the negative that niggles me, like a constant willing of failure, so that u can turn round and say ha told u so. Just doesn’t compute with me. And to a lesser extent those that just don’t under stand how football works. Eg Why have we signed a rb first when we’re desperate for a striker.
The small signs behind the scenes are encouraging.
Some of the bigger things behind the scenes. U23, training ground, sponsorship, are very encouraging.
And we’ve made a decent start with contracts , Eastwood, Norman, caruthers , McMahon - the rest we will just have to wait and see .
