Some of our fans today...

[Gilbert..]

I think we will notice it now. Maybe it was time for the worm to turn, but once it turns personal I feel that the protests lose legitimacy and purpose.

Possibly. We're only 2nd bottom by goal difference so they wont have to do much to make it worse.

 

[Kirkles]

The board are a discrace and have obviously helped to cause this complete shambles but its still true that some of the fans behaviour yesterday was embarrassing and inexcusable. Plus the negativity and pressure clearly has a huge impact on the players.

 

[Yarrgh]

No way that's Gordon. He got away from his marker.

 

[Magus]

Possibly. We're only 2nd bottom by goal difference so they wont have to do much to make it worse.

I think we are already doomed, neither the players nor the manager are up to it, We just have to face those facts, but bad behaviour makes things feel even worse.

Any "fans" found to be involved with this type of behaviour need a lifetime ban from the ground and away games. If you in any way condone or make excuses for this type of behaviour, you need to grow up and consider whether you are too emotionally invested in what is just a game.

 

[Marius57]

They aren’t fans. I can think of lots of other words for them though.

Young thugs destroying the image of our once great club was the last thing we needed really.

And how is abusing and even intimidating our own players en masse going to give them that drive to play better and get the results necessary to save us from relegation?

Just young kids employed by the club mate to make "fans" look bad

Nowt like conspiracy theories on a sun morn

Supporter definition 'a person who is actively interested in and wishes success for a particular sports team'?

 

[Marius57]

And people find it hard to believe that the board would be abused or threatened. Really ?

I don’t get why if there was a credible threat to the safety of the board, why they haven’t extended that to the players and have allowed them to leave the ground individually with no escort/security.

 

[Dykovski200]

Horrendous, none of us are happy with the performances on the pitch, but this type of behaviour is unacceptable, we are probably the most hated club in football after this, who’d want to sign and play in front of these idiots, who’d want to manage us when the inevitable happens. I’d cancel that stadium now if I were Mosh, we don’t deserve nice things.

This club is done, you reap what you sow.

 

[WA Toffee]

I remember all the chat on here when rs fans kicked off at various times and all the adjectives used to describe them. How ashamed we were to share the city with them etc. All fully justified of course.

Now the shoe is on the other foot, we have people trying to defend or justify this behaviour.

Unbelievable

 

[WA Toffee]

Because there wasn't a credible threat against the players?

 

[kenada_blue]

Part of the job you're in..IMO.

Only set of fans that don't like that behaviour are ones that feeling pretty cushdee about their team. Notably the horse punchers

 

[EFCMMA]

One of the darkest days in football. Hang our heads in shame
