Title: Today v BPA
Post by: howmanynames2pick on April 09, 2016, 05:23:16 PM
Good win today...only beat what's in front of you...
Deserved more than the 3.

Just on a slightly different note....
Lincoln looking for a new manager....
What if they gave DG a chance....he would probably take Pidge, Dayle, Zak.
This would decimate the side....
Might be scary times..??

Tbh I ain't  a Greene fan but I'd leave today if the Townend started chanting my gf a slapper, that's personal and tbf bloody embarrassing. Get a grip and a life kids. As for the others well done on been behind your team. As for the team we worked hard got what we deserved and well done all

Jeez, is this really true ? Bang out of order this if so. Those who start these chants, and those hanger on's who just do it to be one of the gang need naming and shaming. I agree though, some have no class at all and will whine all the way to the bitter end.

Puts a dampener on the day hearing this, what is happening to our club when we have a small group of moronic fans who behave like this. Shameful.  I hope David Newton will take the time to investigate yet another case of idiocy.

Are you actually saying that some "fans" sing that song about our own manager?
3 questions....
1) are they Rauceby types?
2) why didn't more responsible adults show their disapproval?
3) is this an anti DG plot to dislodge him

A massive improvement from the last home game.
A bit worrying to see Roberts go off injured as he was man of the match for me.
A great result aided by some very poor defending at set pieces by BPA.
Onwards and upwards   :dan

If this estimate is accurate and the vile continues probably decent supporters will stay .
What if Greene walks tell us where we find a manager with a CV to match his ?

What is the point of chanting filth at what is arguably the most successful Boston manager in decades ?

Spot on GHM,  we do not need "fans", a term i shall now use loosely to describe these people, to act in such a way. And if as Joe is insinuating, that around 100 was chanting this, then i would suggest we would be better off 100 people down in numbers and have have terraces that are not full of abusive vile people that are now stooping to a new low level. I hope many of you will contact the club and chairman on this matter as its not acceptable.  In fact, one word can describe it...SHAMEFUL.

Once again the topic is our "fans" instead of how the team played... We are on the verge of the play offs again yet the idiots mar the win.

I too thought Roberts was MOTM,he was everywhere and was unlucky not to get on the end of a through ball.... Garns had a superb game too.even had time to showboat a couple of times but always looked for the simple pass rather than the hoof up front.. Scored 3 but could have had many more...

Dens reaction of calling "some" members of the town end, and we must remember the term, knobheads, was only in response to personal abuse that was aimed at him and his personal life first. Then he said those infamous words. So who really is to blame in starting it all off ?? And was Den correct in saying this ?? Yes, he could have chosen his words better but people snap when abused.  Its time we all drew a line under all of this now, move on, support all the team, including manager and get out of this god forsaken league.

Great result. 3 down, 3 to go. Job half done, so let's finish with a flourish.

could have been higher score, but to be fair BPA protected the forward in goal just about sufficiently to keep the score from embarrassing.

I thought we looked more like a unit today, with more positivity on the field, and far less falling out.

We're hitting form at the right time, and DG got it spot on today. Well done all round.

Thought we were excellent today but all we are talking about is the shower of s**t among the great supporters on the Town end. Although I didn't personally hear it I can imagine who the cretins are and would like to see them kicked out of the place and banned by the club, they also do the club no favors at away games with their ridiculous filthy mouthed behavour. Don't like what I am saying? Tough, sod off the club don't need you.    UTP.

I've stood on the town end for near on thirty odd years, been there with just a handful of supporters on and when it's been at it's most vocal, but must admit lately some of the chants have been frankly embarrassing and abusive, shame really because the town end are creating a really good atmosphere at the moment, but I tend to agree with Den, there are one or two "knobheads" who are spoiling it.

One or two pied pipers or knobheads if you wish seem to be able to pull along a significant number of sing-a-long  rats down to the class-less depths that we're all discussing. Terrace banter is one thing, but be it sexist, racist, or just plain abusive, it has no place at our club. Time to put extra stewards up there and get rid of the knobheads. Chuck them out and make an example of them, and to quote another poster, if you don't like it, then tough.

Excellent post renamed and reformed Twin :)

Over the years I've found "fans" abuse of Neil Thompson and now this particularly distasteful.
We won today, were in the play offs (for the third yr)
We're on with a new ground
All should be rosey ....
But you get a hand full of knobheads (yes you are knobheads) trying to create disharmony.
I dispair.....
Care in the community just isn't working :(

Who suggested banning all the townenders ?   Reading Steviemas post comments it sounds as if the "leaders " amount to maybe only 10/20 people , sling these out and the other vulnerable easily mislead yobs will behave .

Great win for the Pilgrims players and manager .    So far an overwhelming win for Greene on this thread .

Where did I say 'ban all the townenders'. I don't think anyone should be banned. I refuse to support Dennis, however I will continue to support the team. If Dennis thinks that slagging off fans who travel the length of the country to support the team is acceptable then what was chanted yesterday must be acceptable then.

Supporting the team, is NOT chanting this sort of unacceptable thing though. Those doing so should be reprimanded and taught a lesson. People don't have to shout and chant abuse at Den ! If you don't like/agree with him, just turn your back on him if that is your way of thinking. Although most fans still back the manager, its just this small group of townend knobheads ( correctly named now, if not before ) that are ruining it for most others.

Unbelievable. .
The suggestion that singing foul and disgusting personal insults is part of  creating an atmosphere .
I guess it does...but I don't want to be associated with a BAD atmosphere.
It's supposed to be a family community club and as such women and kids are there.
Obviously NO respect is paid to them
If you were a parent of the flag wavers or cheerleaders would you want them to hear these things?

Where was this stated ? Unless you are one of those chanting this abuse then you have no worries whether you back or don't back Den.  That is not my issue here, the abuse is.  Those who are making the personal abuse comments are the knobheads, and those are the ones to blame for much of the abuse all season and the ones who made the manager use those now infamous words in response to abuse !

Probably the most constructive post so far .  The fact that PP expects all women and kids at football matches to accept vulgarity is different to what many women think is acceptable .

The real victims of this saga is Chestnuts .  I don,t expect for a moment that these yobs have reflected on the clubs recent history .

Chestnuts stepped in when the Club was on its death bed ,  pumped loads of money and hard work into the club in  rebuilding it reputation and making it more professional .
Short term all supporters were tolerant , Tommy Taylor a likeable bloke unable to built a successful team departed , and Steve Welch took us to the end of the season just avoiding relegation .

Then we all struck lucky ,  DN secured the services of Rob &Paul who had took Ilkeston into the UNI play-offs .    They had an almost complete team to bring with them from Ilkeston , a team inherited from David Holdsworth who had left shortly before the end of the season .
Even then tolerance was beginning to fade a little even with the success and Rob at times had to put "fans" in their place .

With Jason Lee installed as manager the "critics" (being kind there ) soon found their feet as abuse came to the fore .

With the "success" of driving Lee out these "fans " moved up a gear and spewed real vile at a hapless Graham Drury, soon he was gone .

Greene came in and a few quick wins killed relegation fears .
First full season under DG we went into the last game of the season with an outside chance of play-offs .
Second season we lost out in play-offs with the last kick of the match .
Hopefully this season we will make the play-offs or at worst finish 6th .
In those three seasons we have had top or second top scorer in the league ( miller ,southwell).  Fans die for a manager who unearths strikers like that !!!!!


Still not good enough for moaners .

What these fans appear to want is going back to the bad old days of spend , spend spend then bust .

These fans should name a manager of there choice , can they think of a better one ?.

What do you actually expect at a football ground GHM. Do you not go to away games. Some of the fans at other teams are considerably worse than us. I actually think Dennis has done a very good job since he has been here and it's nice to be towards the top end of the table. It doesn't mean I have to like the bloke. We did nothing wrong at FC United and he still had a dig at us. We travel all over the country to support a club we love and don't really appreciate being slagged off for doing so especially by someone who decides to cheat our benefit system.

I'm no fan of Greene's off-field antics, and I do think it has affected us this season, but to drag his girlfriend into it (if that's what happened, I wasn't there) is really below the belt. Doesn't matter how much of a tit Greene has been on Facebook having a go at Josh etc - aim the chants at him, and him alone. Anything else and it's stopped being simply 'banter' and turned into really unpleasant, nasty stuff aimed at an entirely innocent party.

Some people have a real dislike of him and people's opinion of him won't change until he's gone. I was personally annoyed with the chants aimed at him at the tamworth away game but he then goes and says what he did after the fc united. Some of what he gets he deserves.

Funny way to show your appreciation to a good manager !!!   
Funny way of showing appreciation of a club you "love"
Funny you should should risk driving out a good manager .
Who would you suggest hiring if he walks ?
Rather restricting yourself in choice with your last comment .  If you eliminate managers who have done a little fiddling it probably excludes quite few good applicants .
Sad day for the club and football when fans including women and kids are expected to accept abusive filth from a small section of fans , yet these same people condemn the sins of others .

Chill out leftback. Dennis put fuel on the fire and now it's been lit.

I'm totally chilled 8) At the end of the day it doesn't bother me if the fans win and get den out, as it will bother our form more, and the club as a whole, and we shall suffer for it. So its on their conscience. Regarding who started what,this is where we, and opinions differ. From what i see, and witnessed, it was the odd fan that put fuel on the fire by making a personal abuse comment originally, which then caused the knobhead response. So really....  who is to blame for starting it all ? As for the FCUM comment, to me, and many others it doesn't read as a did abuse OUR fans, the comment was PRAISING their fans and saying the odd few of our fans could be more like those, which given current fan form couldn't be any nearer the truth. Its all about how people have interpreted this comment, and those with rage against Den will of course make a mountain out of a mole hill.

No matter what happens, Den in or out, our future won't be any different should we get a new manager in, as within half a dozen games, someone somewhere will make personal, abusive comments and around we go again. As i have pointed out in the past, i really don't see what abuse gains. I agree with several on here when they say that some of the things Den says is not right. But i also see the other side of the coin, and i would hope others do also.

I use most of my annual leave to follow the team so I think you can shove that statement up your arse. I think Den's driving himself out. It's funny how everyone was up Evans' arse at one point how opinions soon changed on that when they found out he was a crook.

At the risk of opening another debate, I'm constantly reminded by work colleagues about the results and successes that Evans got his players to achieve for our club.

Many managers have, I'm sure, crossed a lawful line now and again, but it doesn't always alter the results. They speak for themselves.

It's all a case of does the additional baggage they carry out-weigh the results they achieve? Is DG a case of high maintenance, low output? A play-off position suggests the reverse.

I haven't always been DG's biggest fan, but he has my vote of confidence, despite the baggage. The league position defies the negatives, and for now, that is good enough.

Time to pull together into the playoffs. We seem to forget, we are United.

Stop trying to change people's opinions good twin  :)

Everyone is entitled to whatever their opinion is, and everyone can stick to their guns for me.

Every debate has at least two sides and a fence in the middle.

Sit whichever side you wish to, I'm not trying to change opinion.

My intention was to point out that in every negative there can still be positive, and despite difference of opinion, we could be showing a more united front than we are doing on this forum.

Or maybe, should we rename our team......Boston not-United?

Thirteen Hundred Boston supporters yesterday. Thirteen arguing the toss on here. That is a very tiny minority, has it not occurred that possibly Thirteen Hundred fans don't give a toss about our views and are enjoying supporting the team on what has become a very exciting end to the season. Let us very few join them and forget about all the crap that has been spouted.  UTP.

After the recent racism and drunk and disorderly so called United fans,then yes,DG was right to praise FCUM,they have come from Saturday League football to the National League with a superb following so why not praise them? They don't chant that their managers gf is a slapper ..

Seems a lot of so called fans can give it but cannot take it,as I said on another post DG needs to remove himself off social media as the vultures circle and criticise everything he does and says.. The whole FCUM praise has been completely taken the wrong way by some who then think it is a good idea to shout abuse at Carla.. Grow up and chant for the team.. Then they wonder why he does not acknowledge them at the final whistle,cannot blame him if he will get slated like he is on here and Facebook..

He should calm down,have a think about what he is saying/typing as someone will always twist it into a negative... After a game how many here could give an interview too BBC Lincs and remain calm? I know it is his job too give interviews but the actions of SOME fans must send him barmy sometimes..
Oh,did anyone else see Ryan Robbins having a pop at Den in a few posts last night? Can understand his frustration (dropped for Johnson) but to go on Facebook where Den can see it seems a stupid idea too me..

Now,let us leave Den and the team alone,celebrate a fine win and get behind the management and team for the final push..

He didn't mention names just posted "travel all this way and the idiot in charge doesn't even put you in the squad and gives no explanation" second one was "Why get fit and train hard only for the idiot to let you watch the game".
If DG sees it I guess RR will be on his way....

Yes id guess that be the outcome as i know he shifted a few on before because of comments against in

It doesn't give me the right to be abusive to people either unless they deserve it. I don't join in with the anti Greene chants because it will have a negative effect on the team but I can understand why people do it. Bostonshires post is just about spot on really but I'm not 100% behind the manager just the players and other staff.

Intrigued , You don,t join in the anti-Greene chants !  Yet your the only one to come on to defend those that do .   Why don,t you explain to them the negative effect on the team ?
Why are you coming on to make make excuses for the loutish behaviour vile?   

Suggest the real answer is for them to have the bottle to go and talk it over with Greene .

Crazy Neil, get a bus out of Lincolnshire. I am neutral on a lot of thinks football wise and have followed the club and football far and wide. Lets keep things real any Premiership games you hear chants out or order, players such as Danny Drinkwater today for Leicester abused the lino today in front of the Sky camera and was foul mouthed and if the lino grew some would have him sent off. However football and life in general means social standards are slipping week by week.

My point being whilst abusing DG partner is out of order and not acceptable its partly down to DG slagging people on social media over the last twelve months. So I dont have an answer other than to say to all the people saying ban them etc get real its a tribal sport, so why dont the masses shout and scream and chant to support the team. This thread should be about our momentum and playing well and nearly hopefully squeezing into the play offs not a stupid nonsense chant by a few.

Lets end this crap thread and focus on a third successive win, a clean sheet and an exciting end to the season.

He called the fans knobheads months ago AFTER he had abuse from them and he appologised.. I do get out of Lincolnshire,taken in games all over the place and agree that the PL players get away with far more than they should (unless it is Rooney swearing) ..

Anyway,back too yesterday and the performance was the best it had been for weeks,good to hear DG sent out the message to score as many as they could..

although i expected us to win we won well. It was a much improved performanace than the games against Worcester, NFU and Brackley. I know the pressure was off once we were 3 up but the passsing and movement was like we played last year when we went on that excellent run.

3 big games at the end of the season which hopefully will become 6.

I know DG said a draw between Harrogate and Nuneaton would be good but i think a Harrogate win would put more pressure on Nuneaton and I see them as our main rivals for 5th.
