    Nah I have had enough of that . The last time the football was truly enjoyable was Dave Jones era .

    I want to be entertained . Not every minute of every game but at least some kind of excitement.

    I was happy to pay my money when Lee Tomlin was playing.

    I know what I need to say to you though. I understand your point of view . You are entitled to it.
    Folk talk about Brentford, Swansea etc., but a decade ago most sides in the Championship were playing good, fast, open football, City especially. Managers have become more pragmatic in recent years with Warnock Harris and McCarthy at the sharp end of the spectrum. Gradually over 3 seasons in the Championship [the one in the PL excluded], we've become less and less attractive to watch. The promotion side was quite good at times, last season so-so, but this season it's not pretty - even the likes of Vaulks admitted so.

    I cant believe that you actually think that last seasons or previous years football was better than this. You obviously haven't been watching, the last 8 games especially. We have a centre forward who can actually score goals with his head or feet, works hard as well for 90 minutes and will probably get over 20 goals ; we have one of the most gifted midfielders in the division in Wilson who any of the other teams in the division would take immediately ;we have two fleet footed wingers/forwards who are taking people on, scoring goals/providing crosses and assists ; we are playing a high pressing game all over the pitch and we have a hard working midfield and defence who stop the opposition scoring. It is like comparing Prosecco to Champagne. Vaulks didn't say it wasn't pretty to watch - he said no one wanted to play against us and that we were probably horrible to play against. You are perpetuating the hype and media misinformation around the way McCarthy likes his teams to play.
