it is patronising because you're suggesting that none of us are qualified to have an opinion on our manager, unless we have an fa coaching badge or something. i know from watching the game for thirty-five years that this squad of players, the best we have ever assembled, are seriously under achieving and that HAS to be down to the manager.
That doesn't make it patronising.
Challenging is the word I would use.
I have never said you are not allowed an opinion, I love them, but you blame the manager without using your 35 years of watching football to fully explain why.
Of course you don't have to, but it may get your point over and convince others.
But if you just prefer to rant after the game that is your right.
My own opinion is that unless you have played for a teams and had to try and understand how your team mates play and when they make runs, decisions etc, it is hard to understand how difficult it is.
Just a view.
