Swindon Town vs Walsall - Official Match Day Thread

[Ells]

I can see why clapping can be significant to some, it just isn't to me personally. It's a 4 hour round trip for me to watch Town at home and I've never wanted my arse kissed for the fact I've travelled. As long as they try hard on the pitch I'm not bothered whether they clap on the way to the dugout or flip me off. Just me perhaps.

[REDBUCK]

I don't know about that, personally I would clap fans especially at an away game to thank them for their support (or sometimes lack of it) given that they've travelled to see you play. Takes 1 minute out of their life and just sends a positive message to the fans.

Fucking hell we have some needy soles as supporter don't we

[Skinny Pete]

Yeah. Those fucking flat fish are high maintenance!

[THE FLASH]

Awful, I don't rate him but I would never boo or a cheer a sub (in a negative way)

Poor bloke, I imagine his confidence is now at rock bottom.

Happy to mutter 'for fucks sake' when he came on but don't like booing individuals.

[THE FLASH]

Agree with wrong to abuse Rodgers. We complain about a lack of fight from players but players are hardly going to want to fight for the fans if they get booed. Creates disharmony between players and fans

So does not putting in a shift! And he's fucking guilty of that many times.

I don't agree with booing but you don't put lard round a pigs arse....it cuts both ways.

Agreed, they love all the joy when they win/score and then sulk when they play shit and fans let them know about it.

How would you like 7,000 people (okay 6,000) muttering "FFS" as you arrived at the office or started your job everyday?

Be sanctimonious like me and roll your eyes (inaudibly) at crap play or lack of interest.

Getting on a player's back may even have a negative impact on his teammates who probably feel uncomfortable with such treatment being dished out to a team member with whom they likely have a strong bond.

Fans should support whereas spectators and especially "customers" can feel "entitled" and behave as they like.

Four hour round trip for me, too...where are you travelling from?

I used to see the Grimsby lot on my way home quite often...they had another two hours after me...mad!

As a sales a manger I'm pretty thick skinned, so would shrug it off.

As a professional footballer drawing my money from the people muttering, I would probably up my fucking game to prove them wrong.

It's ok though, I doubt he heard me as I was in the TE and only two people around me heard it, whereas the booing was pretty loud.

Football league highlights



More evidence in this one of Warsaw's dominance

Walsall are us last year aren't they? Pretty football, complete domination, fuck up at the back and lose to a shit team at the bottom.

Are you Italian?

When do you like your arse kissed then?

Just out of interest like.

What is it with arses on the 25th November? National Buttock Attention Day?

This except the word pretty.
Boring is more apt.
Plus all those attempts by Walsall and very few on target. Shyte.
