Its comes down to a common sense vs frustration discussion, which is healthy on a message board.
Common sense dictates this squad has been shrewdly assembled by Scott and his scouts, that this is the most talented squad we have had for many a year and improving, frustration surfaces that performances and tactics have been hot and cold.
For an example, Carlisle away was not money well spent, but it is what it is, you enjoy everything else about the day, except the football on some days like that. It didn't make me lose belief in Scott or the team. I get frustrated as many when we don't win, Bristol Rovers I was chuntering how we can't win, but I saw how we played, I saw improvement, so that is enough for that week and we move on. Everton proved what the team and crowd can do. They stood up, we backed them, together it was memorable.
I understand the frustration at the style and tactics Scotty employs to get results, especially away when they don't show, I've seen some horror shows
at Macc, Accy, Yeovil, Wycombe to name 4 over the past two years, but I temper that with great performances against Shrewsbury, Norwich, Leeds, Southampton, Hull and Everton to even the balance.
If we go on a winless run, Scotty will know before us the pressure will be on, but in truth, the board since his appointment run the club with a great deal of common sense, I view my club in a much healthier state than 2008, I want more, like we all do, but I temper it that as we are a League 1 club, it's a rollercoaster of a ride. History will judge Scott, as a success or failure, the beauty is nobody knows whether he will be the man to take us to the land of plenty, here's hoping.
He coaches the players and has as much to do with tactics as Scott. How will that work?
