During yesterday evenings match, there was a fella sitting two or three rows behind me, constantly slagging off bwp for his lazyness, it really started getting on my nerves, the funny thing was when he was midway through a negative sentence about bwp, he scored, his face was priceless when me and Marriott 110 turned and just looked at him too say HA! I don't know whether it occured too him that it was only a friendly and also that bwp's job isn't too run around like a headless chicken, what I'm getting at is that I just don't think there's any pleasing some fans! We should all be behind the team, especially at such a fresh start! Shame some people can't help themselves!

greenie jnr...was the guy simply sitting and talking to his mate about it or was he actaully shouting it out? Ive got no problem with other fans talking out there arse as long as its kept between them and their mates.
just ignore it.
If you read the Good Companions by JB Priestley you get this bit:
To say that these men paid their shillings to watch twenty-two hirelings kick a ball is merely to say that a violin is wood and catgut, that Hamlet is so much paper and ink. For a shilling the Bruddersford United AFC offered you Conflict and Art; it turned you into a critic, happy in your judgement of fine points, ready in a second to estimate the worth of a well-judged pass, a run down the touch line, a lightning shot, a clearance kick by back or goalkeeper; it turned you into a partisan, holding your breath when the ball came sailing into your own goalmouth, ecstatic when your forwards raced away towards the opposite goal, elated, downcast, bitter, triumphant by turn at the fortunes of your side, watching a ball shape Iliads and Odysseys for you; and what is more, it turned you into a member of a new community, all brothers together for an hour and a half, for not only had you escaped from the clanking machinery of this lesser life, from work, wages, rent, doles, sick pay, insurance cards, nagging wives, ailing children, bad bosses, idle workmen, but you had escaped with most of your neighbours, with half the town, and there you were cheering together, thumping one another on the shoulders, swopping judgements like lords of the earth, having pushed your way through a turnstile into another and altogether more splendid kind of life, hurtling with Conflict and yet passionate and beautiful in its Art. Moreover it offered you more than a shilling's worth of material for talk during the rest of the week. A man who had missed the last home match of "t'United" had to enter social life on a tiptoe in Bruddersford."
A wonderful bit of writing. Some people need to go to football for an escape and a release, and slagging off players is the vehicle or even therapy for some folk. It was ever thus. The way to deal with it is maybe not to expect all fellow supporters to see things your way, but rather to sing up for the lads more forcefully and dilute the effect of the moaners.
Funny old game aye.
Also people were booing Wiggins, that IMO is ridiculous!
few decent bits of crumpet in the crowd last night (west stand) just wonder if it's the new lot's WaGs
I'd suggest C block in the Jimmy Seed stand. :-)
Those who go to support the team have rights too. I wish the moaners would have their say on here stay at home if they cant get behind the team. Some idiots behind me booed Benson when he came on
Not as sick and tired as i do
of the people who moan about the moaners who are moaning about the moaners who moan
Best post on this thread.
We get these every few weeks and its the same old comments.
It gets a little boring
Could be a top four club and youd still have players like Denilson, Arshavin, Diaby, Eboue, Bendtner to moan about. (Just to name a few useless Arsenal players..)
