Also, why can't I say that my team has been playing boring, negative football for about a decade now - it's the truth. Until Russell Slade came along I was very much in the as long as we win I don't care camp, but I'm not any more - modern Cardiff City sides have done that to me.
Replying to your second paragraph. Of course you can say that the football is boring & negative. By the same token, others can say we’re on the verge of ‘ManCityness’. The differing views make the board more interesting, however bizarre some posts are. At least they’re about football rather than ‘Dripford’, ‘20 miles an hour’ or ‘Rubbish collection’.
