All this `negativity` won`t be tolerated you know!

[HiroshimaClaret]

People will be called reactionary. Negative comments will be seen as treasonous. Look at the bigger picture! You are not proper fans.

THERE IS NO DEFENCE OF THAT TODAY. The `GROUP`, including Dyche and Woan (setting a great example on the sidelines!) FAILED today.

I hope the Barton `meltdown` (he has been and is a fantastic and important player for us) doesn`t have any lingering affects on the dressing room. He was lucky to be booked or he could have been the recipient of a retrospective 3-game ban.

Deep breaths and sighs...sure we`ll be alright!!!!!!!

The performance and tactics were indefensible today.

Negativity breeds negativity so however you intended the thread title, it's quite right.

There are few positives today. But the answer is not to dwell on the negatives and go around blaming people but to work constructively to prevent it happening to today.

So for example, if you're running your local pub team and your left winger puts in a stinking performance rather than shouting abuse at him for twenty minutes you could explain why he played so badly (eg. you didn't create a chance) and then tell him what to do differently next time (ie. beat a man, get the ball in quicker to the forwards etc).

It's the kind of mentality Sean Dyche has utilized to get us where we are today. People who mistake a positive mental outlook for blind optimism do not understand it properly.

We'll be ok in the league. (I think... )
Get back to hitting sides on the break.
Showed again today, we often look confused when we have the ball too much. (Pulis has sussed us, that way)
But the lack of composure, and ideas, all over the pitch today, was bloody awful...

More accurate words have never been typed. At a complete loss.

We need an `Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind` remedy.
