more rubbish. Folk show their support in different ways, at one extremes some whinge incessantly, at the other some usually try to find a positive. Some have given up and no longer attend, some support whatever believing that withdrawing support makes it worse not better. All different and none are confirmation of complacency.
You post the same thing time after time, cut and paste complete with redundant exclamation marks!
What you call in yourself as no acceptance of complacency smacks of self agrandisement - and shows a sense of entitlement, the very thing that started the slide. Edinburgh are not entitled to anything; pro rugby consists of virtuous circles of some, vicious circles for others and treading water for the rest in between. Even with unlimited budgets it is hard to move between these, very hard. If it was as easy as you think (and you do think it is) I think othrs would have solved the problem earlier. Edinburgh dropped into the vicious circle set, it is going to continue to be very challenging to get out of it, much harder than armchair experts could ever comprehend.
Fortunately slagging off players before they get here makes little difference. It does make this board less attractive, there is only so much jamesmatthew rugby AND jamesmatthew opinions folk can take
