Hearts 0 Rangers 1 First goal scorer: Igamane

A very silly idea.

You would need to show your working there.

Some people just deride the former as magical thinking.

Where did I say that you said that? I'm worried that you have misrepresented my post.

I didn't misrepresent anything. Your refusal to discuss the point of substance just looks like trolling.

How much magical thinking is involved in the demands to change the manager every season?

Here's a stat. Ninety nine times out of a hundred I see this guy Cerny get the ball and I think 'this guy is rubbish'.

It really is the reason. Admittedly it is not one that critics of U.B. will ever be able to acknowledge.

That got a bad reception because that section of the support is an alien culture. This particular point will continue to be difficult for people to get to grips with.

In reality the change that you imagine can only be achieved by a small, organised elite. It has very littlle to do with the fans. Nobody is apathetic. Nobody accepts the level of success post-Van Bronckhorst. Repeatedly arguing against this absent position just looks like trolling.

Spoiler alert: you, as fans, can't instigate the changes required.

Looks like a state of denial on many topics now. This corroborates my description of football fans. Don't @ me.

Ah, so we can expect people to stop mentioning 'the worst result in our history'. Ok. Got it.

I understand that everybody deals with very bad results in their own way. Despite that you'll really need to figure out when it is appropriate to use these terms. It's supposed to call out sentimentality, or platitudes, served up to fans by football clubs. Two things that are completely absent from my post.

No but I think he has a higher threshold, for success, in mind. I believe your example would leave us in second place. You may think that constitutes good results but I don't. I think he knows that criticism ends when trophies arrive.

Maybe but, to me, it looks like the only benefit would be that the fellow near me would have kept quiet. Nice for me but a near zero impact on Clement.

It is very bad but not the worst result in our history. Rangers fans would, in reality, forget even the worst result in our history if success somehow followed. As I said it is a very bad result but there is no need to enter a state of denial about what football fans are like.

That would be one result only.

A fellow near me complained about this at the time. I almost laughed. Was there was some game changing alternative?

I think you are right. We still have a new manager to look forward to. When he arrives everything will be the same but worse.

Hagi had a poor game today.

Clement is right. With good results the fans will forget everything else.

For me both. I accept that the latter is up for debate whereas the former is not.
