I and many others do get behind the team, but when we are served up such garbage on a regular basis that becomes very difficult to maintain.
Garbage on a regular basis? Granted we've seen our fair share of poor games this season, but just looking back over games this year (ie 2009), I'd say that's pretty harsh:
13 January - drew 1-1 with Stockport, in play off place at time if I remember rightly. Pretty good game.
17 January - lost 2-1 away at Huddersfield. Didn't see it myself, but from what I heard on radio and what others who went said yes I'll give you that one. That's 1-1 so far in the "regular garbage cup".
27 Jan - won 3-2 against Walsall. While perhaps not one to trouble the compilers of "100 greatest games of all time", certainly far from garbage. You're 2-1 down.
31st Jan - drew 0-0 away at Oldham, again a team pushing for playoffs. Again, didn't see it myself but again going on reports from those who did, not garbage. 3-1.
14th Feb - 1-1 away at Leicester. A bloody great game, wish we played like this every week. Emphatically not garbage. 4-1.
17th Feb 1-1 away at Millwall. Good performance by all accounts, unlucky to concede to wonder goal so late. 5-1
21st Feb 4-2 at home to Scunny. Say what you like about this one, and it's difficult to judge a game so heavily skewed by a loony ref, but garbage it wasn't. 6-1
24th Feb Lost 1-0 at home to the ref. Total garbage. No argument there.
Final score: 6-2 to the "Not garbage" side.
So out of 8 games this year, I make that 2 that could fairly be described as garbage. Granted, like I said at the top, we have watched some utter bollocks this season at times, but it's definitely got better lately, so I don't think the phrase "served up such garbage on a regular basis" is at all fair where we sit now. You seem to enjoy snatching at the negatives, well, "on a regular basis".
And no, I didn't find much to shout about on Tuesday either. We were shit.
