I know a couple of people who were thrown out for chanting this yesterday on grounds of racism. Saw a guy arguing out back of the Arkells over the whole issue after the game with a steward. Be warned!

But he's from Scotland so it's not racist. A bit like the Geordies telling Mike Ashley to fuck off back to London.

Calling him a Scottish cunt is a bit less clear cut. They may well be factual, but the Scotish part is irrelevant and in todays PC environment you'd be better off just calling him a plain old cunt just in case.

Then again I doubt some of the stewards can tell their left from right so maybe these are moot points.

I think any personal abuse aimed at Malpas is out of order.

The people who do it are all cunts..........

I would like to see Malpas give a bit back. Show some spunk MM!

During the second half he looked like his wrists had been nailed to the roof of the dugout, like some kind of crucifixion. Very sad. :(

like the guy a few cells down from hannibal lector in silence of the lambs?

JON RITSON: So, what do you think of todays performance?

MM: (backs into a corner, wimpers)

JR: errrr, mr malpas, is everything ok?

MM: (sobs, avoids eye contact)

JR: (steps towards MM to offer some support)

MM: (throws handful of jizz in JR's face) Ha! tae that ya wee bastar! i can smell yur cunt!

Only way he can do that is by getting a performance. I personally think it is to late and he will be gone this week.

He will probably get up to the Northampton game, I would guess the crowd will be sub 4,000 for the first time at a Swindon Div 1 for many years and he will be gone.
I went on about his body language after the last home game, I still cant believe he turned his back on the players when the game was stopped for an injury to their forward, players came over to the dug out for instructions, that was the time to rally the troups, what does Malpas do, sits down, the message was loud and clear.
'You crap players are going to lose my job' - he was clueless, no encouragement, no rants - just sat down.
The clinging onto the dug out  for the second half was just more of the same.

I'm clueless should be embroidered across his head.

The fella thrown out of the Arkells wasn't thrown out because of racist abuse towards Malpas.  It was as a result of abuse about the players which was heard by their families who were sat a few rows in front. 

Our fans are complete twats, Malpas out chants from 5 minutes into a game.

I left after the second goal mainly because I couldn't stand the fans laying into the team/manager when they should have been getting behind them. 

Tbh I didn't hear that much from the fans until the 3rd goal went in and by then I couldn't really blame them.

It's frustrating to see players who can perform put in the kind of shite display they did yesterday....

I didn't hear anything before it was 2-0. Even at 1-0 the TE was supporting the team from what I heard.

Thing is I don't disagree with their sentiments half the time, but I just feel there is a time and a place for it - not with 85 mins left of a match.

I knew it wouldn't get any better if another goal went in so just upped and left. Sounds like I didn't miss much.

Chants of Malpas Out started just before half time by more than just a few in the DR. I sit near the halfway line.

This is my problem, I'm not stupid enough to think MM is the right man to lead us to glory, but I'm not into manager/team bashin either, I'll get behind the team instead of focussing on the negatives.  I mean why would anyone want to spend 2 hours at a match spouting negative shite.

But hearing all the crap winds me up, so what to do?  Have a go at other "supporters" or what?

You probably do what most of us do, just sit through it and cringe and then walk away.

But why would I want to spend my time doing that though Dell.  Sitting there in silence is kinda letting the negativo's (negativi) have their own way.

Perhaps chants was the wrong word, but there was definitely people having a go in the town end before the second goal. Won the penalty - you can't blame the manager for Cox missing a pen but some people were! Then the second goal went in and I thought it just ain't going to get better.

Incidentally I thought people were trying hard to get behind the team, but they were few and far between.

I had a go at the same group of 'supporters' at the Millwall game (I think I told them to shut up or support the team you cunts).

Didn't work. Only way to solve the problem is to get rid of Malpas, so they'll get their own way. Just makes watching crap performances that extra bit unbearable.

I think I've just lost the fight to argue with them, I would be on a loser from the start, how can you argue with fans who have paid good money to see gutless souls lose week after week and a rudderless ship and its captain standing there clueless.

Nice open goal by Iwelumo Jan!!

Urgh, don't talk about that fella, I can't believe he missed that!  Funny though as apart from the worst miss I've ever seen he played quite well, don't think he's international class though, Boyd should have come on instead.

In fairness, where I was sat, didn't really hear any negativity (apart from isolated shouts) until the 3rd went in and then again about 5-10 mins from the end, at which point the game was gone let's be honest. After their 2nd, I expected the Malpas out to start but all I heard was the crowd on their feet cheering the team on, bit like the Swansea game. In the circumstances, I don't think the team could have asked for much better support yesterday. Well, obviously they could, but it was better than they had any right to expect given the performance

Boyd now says he will not play for Scotland under Burley again - is there a good reason or is he being a sulky git?

even that cunt behind you?

Well the way Boydie probably sees it is he's a goal scorer and when we needed a goal Burley calls on a championship player, so I can see why Boyd's made his decision, very disappointed though, don't like to lose any players, especially when our pool of international class of players isn't the biggest.

Think KB was also annoyed at GB's comments yesterday about having to prove himself at Rangers. 

Surely Boyd is better than Iwelumo?

fuck off back to scotland you jock cunts

even him. I was slightly amazed but he didn't really start until everyone else did.

Well you's think so eh?  Saying that Iwelumo, apart from the miss, dis play well, won countless headers laid the ball of well and is well accepted by the fans (as a new comer who dropped a ball).  Boyd's known as a lazy arsed goal scorer, a kin the traditonal centre forward, doesn't track back etc, but he knows where the goal is, which CI obviously didn't yesterday.

Why the plural Sonic?  There is only half a jock cunt here, at present, or are you just making a party political broadcast?  Or maybe you've got a case of e-tourettes.

it was supposed to be ironic :(

like raaaaaain on your wedding day?

I never get personal and never boo til halftime or fulltime...........but boo i will if its shite...and...it was!

So you're ironic youth now ?

I thought the town end was surprisingly supportive til we went 2-0 down when some people went mad.

Cant blame them, wankwaaaaaaaah's error was just the icing on the individual error cake
