Don't Renew

To all the boo boys and nay-sayers who stayed away yesterday, please, please, please do us a favour and don't renew your season tickets. There was a fantastic atmosphere down at The Valley yesterday and that was at least in part due to the fact that the crowd was really positive right the way through. There was a point where they scored just after we went two up where you just know that normally sections of the crowd would have turned on Pardew, the defence and/or anything else that moved (or didn't). That just didn't happen yesterday and I can only put that down to the fact that the moaning minnies didn't turn up. How good it was. Without that pressure the team turned things around and played the best football they have all season. It was wonderful.

So if your a boo boy and you really love our club, do everyone a favour and stay away next year.

    Can I just say that if you are a boo boy and really do love the club then please DO RENEW but either stay at home or come along with a more positve frame of mind : -)

    Yes it was a pleasent change yesterday, the weather helped too. However, and I'm not just trying to be negitive, the players were under no pressure what so ever yesterday and it showed as it always does in the situations. Remember Ainfield last season?
    What we need from the management is to get them in the same frame of mind for matches that do matter. Difficult I'm sure.
    Anyway very nice way to finish a disappointing season.

    You're right Chirpy,

    All very well doing it when no pressure but as Pardew himself says on the OS they need to do it when the pressure is on.

    What might help is the crowd not heaping more pressure on their heads.

    Going two nil up at home in the first 20 minutes is also a good way to relieve the pressure.

    Don't edit it Chirpy. I love the idea of you trying to be negative; just how chirpy is that?

    Too late.
    I have treid to be positive all season but even I gave in in the end. (Have never booed though, pathetic. I don't even boo Defoe, doesn't work as he always scores against us.)
    The slate is clean, I'm up for next year and will be re-newing my 3 ST's as soon as I get my form.

    Absolutely...It can be hard to be cheerful when the club perform badly. My take is this: If the players perfrom at their best, win, draw or lose, then they deserver all our praise and cheers. yes, if they are playing poorly, perhaps off form, or because Pards is trying something new, then boo'ing only makes things worse. However, when we remember what this club has been through, the fight wehad to endure to remain in existence and get our ground back, then I expect the players to play their hearts out and not act like prima-donnas.

    However, the idea of being a supporter is to support through thick and thin...this has been a 'thin' year, but not disaterous by any means. Supporting a club when you witness lose after lose is part of being a solid supporter of this fine club...If people want glory and glory alone, then yeah, dont bother to renew.

    As for leaving early, i do that just to catch my train :D

    I know your glass is usually half empty, but try looking at it this way:
    Palace get promoted(as I'm sure they will, I said it months ago on here) and then we wave to them as we pass them at the end of next season as we go up and they come back down with a bump.

    i think palace will get promoted and i think they'll come back down but i really can't see us passing them on the way , we're here to stay
