Macclesfield Town manager Keith Alexander is growing tired of the fickleness of the club's fans.
The Silkmen had won three games in a row before crashing to a 4-1 home defeat to Exeter at the weekend, and Alexander was disappointed by the supporters' reaction during the game.
He said: "I'm still upbeat, we all are. We've had a good spell and it's easy for people to be all doom and gloom because we've lost a game.
"But we've been up against a good team and, on the day, they were better than us, there's no question about that.
"Fans pay their money and they're entitled to have a go but, at home, they're very, very quick to get on backs.
"We need them behind us because we're facing very good teams. It would be nice to play teams in similar positions to us, with no disrespect to teams like Barnet, and to Accrington, who beat us a few weeks ago.
"But we're a better team and a better squad than we were just a few weeks ago, and things are starting to click for us now."
