As soon as he started to warm up they gave him an Orange bib.
Did they think he was the car park attendant??
That was my cue to sod off home. I'm not wasting my time watching a clown with BLOODY BLUE BOOTS thank you.
Back indoors at 5.10pm and am not going back til the Colchester game as I have had my fill of that nonsense and need a break, as it is just plain BORING.
Much more of this old cobblers and there will be a modern day reminisance class down at Bluewater every Saturday, with sad blokes lumbered with the missus and kids walking round nodding at the familar faces. . . .
Not sure Pardew knows what to do either :o(

Oh, wait. Not turning up at all is probably the best thing you can do for the team.
you won't be missed falconwood
not only did we need changes and were still battling for the points on offer today
but also, we played last tuesday and now have a MASSIVE long trip to cardiff on Tuesday - surely we could've freshened up and sent a message to the bench that we at least had a little faith in them?
Sounds like he's copying one of our previous managers.......
I didn't go to the valley today for obvious reasons and so can't comment first hand but I really can't understand to the degree people are moaning. Yeah we've conceded 6 in two games at home but then we had won 4 in a row before this. As I said before this division is a rollercoaster ride and must be a way better experience than watching us concede 4 rather than 5 past Arsenal. Anyone who expects us to cakewalk this division after the upheaval of last season and the pretty much completely new team and is living in cloud cuckoo land.
With respect VA, had you been at the last 2 games you might.
The biggest disappointment for me is that we have conceeded 6 goals in the last 2 games but the oppersition, which in my opinion has been pretty average, haven't had to work for any of them.
As fans, we are sh*t. If the players are looking at us to inspire them and be the 12th man, we'll its not gonna happen. Its down to them to sort it out.
Today was the first time I have seen it (and the first time my son has seen us lose) we had pocession without any end product, no speed or urgency in movement, no one who really concerned them, I thought ZZ had a good game as did Weaver not sure about any of the rest....
And again to get my dig in at the 'fans' that could not wait to get on the teams back. You are a bunch of cocks and the whole stadium is better off without your muggy too keen to boo mouths.
Am I unfashionable in turning up to SUPPORT the side??
Wankstains the lot of em.
It's a shame we seem to be in the minority mate.
In McLeod's case it seems he's being booed from the off, despite not having a run in the team. What chance has the poor lad got?
Unfortunately a large number of people never managed to figure out how important Kish was to the team. The service and dedication he gave to Charlton is even more impressive when you consider the abuse he got.
Strange thing about yesterday is that both my Dad and sister, who have always been less blinkered and biased than me when assessing our performances, said we played really well apart from not putting away our chances and with a bit of luck (and the ref) on our side we would've beaten them comfortably. Seems to totally contradict what a lot of people are saying on here.
The football has and it is very very dull and predictable to watch, if you think otherwise good luck to you.
Yeah 3rd in the league and I'll see you all at Cardiff eh?
Thought not.
Although hiding on here, sending messages to each other is 'supporting the team' I suppose. . . .
Are we getting like Newcastle fans. A bit too high level of expectation and short termism? Does it come thru to the players who are then nervous and dont play to their potential at home.?
I havent booed or left early but I may have become a little quiet.
Will you please tell me which other team has played more exciting football than us in this Division. Plymouth looked Ok in parts and so did Barnsley. All the others have been simply solid, hard working and taken advantage of our mistakes.
I am not saying at times we have not been boring hoofing it up to Iwelumo but its not fair to say we have been boring compared to our opponents.
They are 'simply solid' and yet we are simply *inept* at breaking *very* average teams down.
Pardew said we have now become accustomed to the physical side of things.
Biggest load of b*llocks I've ever heard. Half of our current team don't have the heart for a battle and that is what will keep us playing teams like Burnley et al next year.
As for humping it up to Iwelumo. He barely won one header yesterday and yet we still persist in doing it. V Zzzzzzzzz.
I don't think people weren't booing McCleod, they were booing the decision to take off Varney when Big Chris really should have been the one to go.
seconded...... b4 yesterdays game we had sold just over 300(fair play to each and everyone one of them) for cardiff , says it all really for a team in the top four, our support is f***ing sh*t
i'd rather lose by 4 to a decent team like arsenal than by 3 to the sh*t that's been beating us...
i think we have the players to get us up from this slump but do the players have the heart for the battle and does the manager have the ability to get the best out of them, time will tell...
as for the clown he still managed to miss an easy chance when play had stopped imo he doesn't have the heart or ability for the battle and pardews reluctance to bring him on when the situation was crying out for a fresh pair of legs up front speaks echoes of his views on the blue booted one...
still it's much more exciting in this league!!! zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I feel the same way about those who whinge on about Ambrose. He is a talented young player (still only 23), but needs his confidence boosting. The abuse he was getting from those around me yesterday was shocking to hear.
Too many of our supporters don't seem to really understand how football works. Players like Reid, who push themselves into centre stage far too often, get all the plaudits even though too many of their passes or free kicks are actually woeful. The hard working players like Semedo, Ambrose & Kish do the important stuff & just get abused for their efforts. I do despair at how badly our crowd treats decent, hard working players.
And I thought he had an excellent game yesterday.
