.... and will all else stacked against the team; any plaudits for Thorn and the way he set about this evening?

See my post, sorry to disappoint
Scan down, should have said thread
Found it. Even gave you a 'like', which for a time I considered would be a rarer beast than an injury time winner
I think I have said enough on thinking we can stay up. I also think I am alone on wanting to see what AT could do with a few quid to spend.
Where have the doom merchants gone?Waiting for our next defeat?
It doesn't alter things one way or t'other. When CCFC lose, AT is doing his best with limited resources and nobody could do more; when CCFC win after a gut-busting performance, AT apparently deserves credit.
What I'm interested in - and I hope you'll agree this is fair enough - is a body of work. I believe AT's work thus far has been substandard and his stewardship increases the club's chances of relegation.
I root for AT by default because I root for the club. I'd much rather CCFC avoid relegation and be proven wrong than vice versa. But pushing for credit after one game just won't do in the context of a much bigger, more dubious record.

Childish. There are many intelligent fans among the 'doom merchants' who want a sunnier future for the club.
Whilst I understand what you're saying; and equally would agree that the totality of Thorn's stewardship is clearly sub-standard, what I was interested in is whether some personalities could, or would see any positivity in Thorn's work. A refusal to recognise any merit appears to indicate a rather closed mind. I have repeatedly stated I think Thorn's been thrust into a role for which he's hopelessly unqualified, but have the good grace to acknowledge that this evening, for once, he appeared to get every call right.
I equally look at the quality of Norwood and Nimely and wonder - if those empowered to do so - could secure the obviously talented players he's charged them with getting for him; then just how transformed our run-in could be

I know I feel embarrased
After all Thorn is such an amazing manager, eh I mean look where we are in the league and all that
I actually think we are a better team without him ,whether he's a good footballer or not. Idon't believe you can be totally committed when signing issues carry on ,have banged on all season that i think AT got it wrong giving ,him not Keogh the armband and performannces and results back that up ,RK has to retain the armband for the rest of the season for any chance of the Sky Blues staying upI didnt get to go so cant comment on tactics etc! Hat off for us piling pressure on all game though and getting the win!
Its as if Clingan makes us lose??
Be interesting to see what you say when we are officially down.
But then of course you wont say anything then will you, all the AT supporters.
You should. Because no-one has said that. Tell you what, I'll wait when you find anywhere where anyone has called him 'amazing'.
You're going from bad to worse. You know when people stop laughing with you, and laugh at you. Yeah? It's now.....
