    Backing him endlessly makes it feel like all is rosy and less pressure on him means he stays in the job longer. More protests forces the club into making a decision or considering that decision and gets him out sooner. If many of us feel he is the wrong person for the club and plenty never wanted him in the first place, surely they feel for the long term benefit of the club is to get him out of it as soon as possible?

    That's never been the case though. Woodward sacked Moyes and LvG despite both having fans' backing (atleast the majority) to the end. LvG did get some boos but overall there was some support.

    If there is one thing Ed has shown, its' that he doesn't go by fan's opinions. He does what he wants, quite honestly.

    OK, let's hope we win today.
     
    What channel is this on in the US (or any other country)? Trying to find a link on Modbro
     
    Im always sceptical about these planes and banners, it seems to be the media that always find out first about a supposed banner, and on top of that nobody claiming the banner themselves.
    the people/group who behind this banner are called 'A Voice from the Terrace'.

    This is their first tweet
    The account was set up August 2018.....
     
    Including Fellaini in the starting line-up is just criminal when we've spent £50 on a dynamic midfileder. Jose needs sacking.
    Yup, regular starter in the midfield for the world cup semi finalists. Jose needs sacking.
     
    Fourth game into the season and we've already got fecking banners out. We've turned into such a circus.
     
    Dont like that A.Periera isn't even named on the bench. Think he deserves better with his start to the season.
     
    All the actual match going fans singing suppose for Jose, and rightly so!

    Just goes to prove some of the keyboard fans on here are in a minority!
     
    Sanchez has to start producing. Equally, we need to find a way to get Sanchez isolated one on one against the oppo full back. One thing Wenger did well was transition the team to place Sanchez in advanced areas in isolation vs opposite fb in final third. Average position Sanchez receives for us is at half way. A lot more effort to get from half way to goal than final third to goal.

    I agree it’s good to support the manager at the match by singing his name, but coming on here and pretending that he’s not doing an absolutely abysmal job won’t help anyone either.
    Oh no am not saying we should pretend everything is rosy and am sure most would agree with that. It's fair to point out mistakes and what he is doing wrong and how he can improve. It's just the endless hysteria over every little thing and the going around in circles. I see people losing their shit and hoping we lose so Jose gets sacked.
     
    Fellaini, Pogba, Matic in the middle.

    Think Jose is taking the 'big club mentality' a bit literal.

    Also, Lingard over Martial again. Fellaini over Fred/Perreira. Good times ahead.
     
    Ugh, Lindelöf playing... that’s just not going to help is it... hope he isn’t caught out early on. Burnley on set-pieces against him is (on paper) a disaster in the making.

    Go on lads, go for it and score a few goals!
     
    Can’t beleive we’re fecking about with a plane again. Pathetic.

    That kit looks smart though. Well nice.
     
    Kick-off
    SuperSport 3 in South Africa.

    The pink kit is great
    Cheers mate. Hopefully I can get it working and watch it while I'm on the move.

    I don't really buy football shirts, but tempted by the pink kit.
     

    Kick-off

    And we're off. The battle for Premiership survival starts now... :p
    Well Jose better repay the fans now. Think that will happen?
    The fans chanting his name is supporting him the banner is pathetic. We should win today as Burnley are one of the few teams to have had a worse start to the league than we have.
     
    Minimal expectations for me. Lets see if they disappoint even then.
     
    Needs to give it a rest. Fans supporting the manager on matchday isn't some statement or message to the board. Lvg also had a red army chant

    The match day fans were still backing Moyesie late on.
    They're loyal!
     
    Good lord, those kits are an abomination.
     
    Have they been washing the red shirts in with the whites again.
     
    So it was hired by people who have not long had a Twitter account. Are they genuine or has it been set up to sh*tstir by outsiders?
