Mr Quinn has called on s to be patient. www.dictionary.com says "Patient" means... "Bearing or enduring pain, difficulty, provocation, or annoyance with calmness. " So Jimmy won't apologise for the enduring pain, difficulty, provocation and annoyance we experience, but he will have a go for us not being calm about it. That doesn't seem fair Scarborough away - "Be patient" Stevenage away - "Be patient" Leigh away - "Be patient" Tamworth away - "Be patient" Margate away - "Be patient" Dagenham away - "Be patient" Accrington at home - "Be patient" Maybe, Mr Quinn, it is about time you responsibility for our "Bearing or enduring pain, difficulty, provocation, or annoyance" this season that causes you to call for patience Deal with the problems, don't blame the symptoms most unimpressed

Apart from a few good years during the late 70's and early 80's, I've been extremely patient. I don't ask for much. I know that we'll never be worldbeaters, never get anywhere near the Premiership, and apart from a couple of good cup runs, I'd be quite happy to see us safely playing in the 2nd division.
What I do expect though, is to go and watch a team that has some sort of skill, but more importantly a team that shows as much passion in "the shirt" as I do. I've no problem with seeing modest proffesional footballers with the expensive trappings as seen at the GM. All I ask is that when I've paid my hard-earned £14 to watch them, is that, when I come away from the match, win, lose or draw,I can honestly feel that the players have done all they can for "the cause"
Am I asking toomuch? I don't think so.

Thanks for that JP. You're like me , we obviusly bleed blue and amber. Now I don't own a furniture shop, am not a car salesman , don't build houses or fill coffee machines and I'm not that rich although if push came to shove, I could probably find a couple of grand. Can' t we find a couple of hundred more like minded supporters and fire the current "guardians " of this club into Room 101?
