I've spoken with supporters of various other clubs who have said the same thing.
I suppose it just goes to show how matchgoing supporters can feel so differently about things/individuals, rightly or wrongly.

Ultimately a manager has to be seen to be trying alternatives and Mr Sarri is not doing too much change. When you look at 0-4 and 0-6 bashings you expect to change and when you add home defeat in the cup to that then talk of sackings gather pace.

Football fans know what they want and it isn't the 'same old' when things aren't so good.

Even so, I think the level of fury would have taken many by surprise. Arsenal away was my first match this season and I really felt even then how much anger and hatred there was from a lot of people.

I think I’d have to suspect sabotage for me to get that worked up; for all his flaws and no matter how misguided his methods may be, I still believe he’s just doing what he thinks is best to try and turn things around.
