In reply to Wismo & Lonegunman the "some bloke" in front of the 2 dickheads was me. Too right I'd had enough of them. I appreciate that everyone pays their money and everyone has a right to voice an opinion but this was just too much. The first target was Sleath but soon afterwards the moaners found a new target - Jamie Yates. This opinion voicing was just constant barracking of Jamie Yates - even when he was nowhere near the ball in play. Admittedly I've seen him have better games but lets remember who put the cross over for the first goal and who won the penalty (no comment from me as to whether it was a pen or not - but we'll have it anyway!).
Everyone gets frustrated when things don't always go as planned but I don't think shouting abuse at a particular player for 90 minutes really does much to improve his performance does it? One of these moaners seems to have something to say at most home games - none of it very constructive - but fortunately I can't recall seeing his mate before. Perhaps neither of them will bother attending again although I won't hold my breath! Maybe the club could have a special moaning enclosure so all the barrackers could stand together and let the proper supporters take the p*ss out of them all match.
The comments about some of the teams best performances being away from home rings very true. If this barracking is indicative of some of the home support then I'm sure the players prefer being away. No offence to the vast majority of the home supporters, many of whom can't travel away for whatever reason - cost, work commitments etc, but the away following does usually tend to be made up of people who are committed to supporting not barracking - apart from the incident at Droylsden which although being at the game I did not witness.
As I said earlier everyone is entitled their opinion and most games I leave the ground having a whinge about something which has happened during the course of the match - usually the officials - but I don't think after the game this intrudes on others enjoyment of the match in progress.
This is what happened on Saturday and what made me so annoyed. As Wismo said why do people like this bother wasting their money if everything is so wrong with the team ALL the time.
Anyway we didn't lose did we?
