@joejones1897@C7_Tux@TheExiledRobin Think you're confusing Section 82 (the group) with "all fans" who sit/stand in blocks S25/6 mate.
But it's an important differentiation to make. To avoid unfair judgements (of all parties) being made by those who don't know better, and so take these generalisations at face value

Let me get this right... you're saying that because we showed compassion and support when a family's week old baby died (as did a huge chunk of the wider football community...) you think he/they therefore 'owed' us something as a result?!?!
What a fucking mental take that is ποΈ
And if you read the words I've used. Nowhere am I saying 'roll out the red carpet' for him. I hope we smash them. I'm just pointing out that it's possibly best to have some perspective and focus on getting behind our team, rather than directing misguided shanter at someone who, whatever way you look at it, ultimately left us in a better place than when he arrived, even under tragic circumstances.
The additional irony is, most of the people throwing the π line about where LM is concerned, probably wanted him "out" at some point anyway.
@JamesEwing_ Nah, fuck him - even more of a reason to be loyal to us, not to talk with another team whilst we are in the play offs. We were there for him and his family and he fucked us off first time of asking. Iβm glad he left us and is failing currently, definition of a π
Before people get too carried away with their "banter" next weekend, can we all just take a minute to remind ourselves of what our former Head Coach went through last October.
Must be pretty much a year to the day since Liam Manning and his family lost baby Theo β something no parent should ever have to go through. And something that I know affected a great many of us deeply.
Despite that, not only did he drag himself out of the pits of hell, but he came back and took us to our highest league position in nearly 20 years... If that doesn't deserve our respect, then I honestly don't know what does.
Support our lads, of course we want the win. But let's do it in a way that reflects the best of us, with class, compassion and perspective when it comes to LM... ππ½ β€οΈπ€
Passion doesn't depend on the outcome, but it can affect it
Those who look for/accept excuses as 'the reasons' are part of the problem, not the solution
We can all 'do' & 'be' better. But as we prove repeatedly, we're stronger TOGETHER!
Let's recapture that after the break π₯
In the UK, 1 in 4 people will have suicidal thoughts at some point in their lifetime.
You are not alone - reach out to your support team.
