Negative, negative, negative, whinge, whinge, whinge... Am I doing it right? I think thte fact that we have management stability is a good thing. I understand that performances have been patchy however we are now seeing signs that the changes are finally starting to make a positive impact. I'm fairly sure if the worst happens and we do go down there will be some kind of break clause, however I'm fairly sure it won't be needed. Terry and Mo are the right men for this club and anyway - Who on earth could we realistically bring in that could achieve any better?

Sounds like advocating for the devil if you ask me. That scenario is being implanted in others minds by yourself. Marks said>> Why is it down to the fans to create confidence in the team rather than the other way around? The confidence from the fans is gained by the team/management not being knocked at every opportunity. The teams performance also gives out confidence to the fans. It's a two way thing. They play rubbish we get on their backs, we drag them down all the time they find it difficult to get out of the rut. Accept that sometimes there are no hidden agendas in things that happen. Not everyone/everything has an ulterior motive. I don't need to re-read your post thanks, once is enough, and if the cap fit's then wear it.

Fantastic news that Terry and Mo have decided to extend their stay. Shows their commitment. On wards and up wards to the top six!!!

Remember, moderators are posters too. My previous comment was with regards to the negative comments against something that is surely only a positive move by the club. However, there are certain posters who always find a way to take the shine off of anything that happens, in my opinion, based purely on stirring the muck. I also wonder how many of the negative posters have seen us play this season on a regular basis and if the answer is yes, then there is no way that the form of the team should lead to the negative conclusions drawn out kindly for us all to see. Yes, the club the management the players and the fans all have their faults as well, but playing devils advocate does little to raise confidence and the belief of others if they read what they see at face value. I am not convinced that many of the postings on here are for real, and fishing trips are a part of forums that we all have to sift through. I have no issue with anyone partaking in debate, whether positive or negatively, but simply being negative for the sake of it is just immature and frankly turns a lot of people off. Why wait until January to make this decision? The club see the current duo as the way forward, signing them on now builds confidence in many ways for players, management, investors and fans alike. Would some like to see the current management fall flat on their faces. I fully understand why the question was asked, I just wondered if it should have been asked at this time. With regards to the bread and butter comment, surely there is more to this than simply we are bottom of the league full stop. The board obviously have more vision and are looking at the bigger picture, sometimes you have to go backwards before you can go forward. Remember this, not everything you read on here is meant with good intentions, I'll let you make your own mind up about that. And to finish off, I am sure the board will have a few legal loopholes to use if it all goes tots up, so I am all in favour of this early boost.

What is it with this forum. Anything positive that emanates from the club gets met with scepticism and negativity. Good to get the men at the helm tied up, lets work on the rest as we progress.

Butcher gets a new contract and this takes off is no coincidence. The bait is ?250 K bid by a wee consortium who are asking for some basic assurances - but the "bite" will lead to a struggle to land the intended target.
