for_heaven's_Saint Posted 30 December, 2009 Posted 30 December, 2009 I thought our fans were fickle, but having just watched the highlights of Bolton vs Hull I think we're not so bad after all! They were booing when they were 2-1 up, which could only have a negative effect on the players, and they conceded again, cue more booing. They were also shouting and singing abuse at Megson, who they've given a hard time to ever since he joined their club. He was visibly upset by the abuse in the post-match interview, and you can't help but feel sorry for him as he seems an honest bloke doing his best on a tight budget. I know they don't play the best style of football but does anyone feel this negativity and abuse is in anyway justified? Watching Bolton's players backing deeper and deeper towards their own penalty area reminded me of our team last year and how we go on their backs, and I'm sure positivity in the stands breeds positivity in the players.
RonManager Posted 30 December, 2009 Posted 30 December, 2009 and I'm sure positivity in the stands breeds positivity in the players. One breeds the other in any walk of life, as it's so much about confidence and feeling ok about trying to express yourself without getting sh*t if it doesn't come off. COYR
RedAndWhite91 Posted 30 December, 2009 Posted 30 December, 2009 Poxy fans of a no-mark club forcing out an honest manager. I don't particularly like Megson as a manager but he seems like a sound bloke and them fans booing when they are winning is pathetic. And for the record, I doubt Wigley is going to be able to do much better.
Thedelldays Posted 30 December, 2009 Posted 30 December, 2009 they are tossers...they stayed up last year and they wanted him out... I hope they go down.....mostly because I cant stand their chairman and his "views"
Thedelldays Posted 30 December, 2009 Posted 30 December, 2009 considering he has a very small amount to spend and has to constantly try and cut the wage bill etc....what the hell do they expect..?
RedAndWhite91 Posted 30 December, 2009 Posted 30 December, 2009 Down with the P*mpey, they're going down with the P*mpey, down with the P*mpeeey, they're going down with the P*mpeeeyyy.
Hatch Posted 30 December, 2009 Posted 30 December, 2009 considering he has a very small amount to spend and has to constantly try and cut the wage bill etc....what the hell do they expect..? Spent over £30m I think, including £10m on one player, who is only a sub these days
Thedelldays Posted 30 December, 2009 Posted 30 December, 2009 Spent over £30m I think, including £10m on one player, who is only a sub these days really..? well in that case....
saint_stevo Posted 30 December, 2009 Posted 30 December, 2009 Sacked. Very very harsh. Shoestring budget (although they spent 9m on Elmander....?) the fans now want Mark Hughes....why would he want to go there? Only reason i can think of is geographical..
Thedelldays Posted 30 December, 2009 Posted 30 December, 2009 I would love for them to go down..... I would like Hull to stay up...more so for sticking with old leather face
saint_stevo Posted 30 December, 2009 Posted 30 December, 2009 i hate phil brown. and the mrs family are hullers. So hull, pompey and 1 other for me to drop through
anothersaintinsouthsea Posted 30 December, 2009 Posted 30 December, 2009 Really hope that Bolton go down now. Their fans have become way too arrogant, with the size of their crowds why do they expect to be doing any better than a relegation scrap? Booing whilst still winning in a relegation 6-pointer is ludicrous.
Colinjb Posted 30 December, 2009 Posted 30 December, 2009 Time for them to get a reality check, relegation should do it. The problem is, short of re-appointing Allardyce they will not truly accept anyone.
Sheaf Saint Posted 30 December, 2009 Posted 30 December, 2009 Time for them to get a reality check, relegation should do it. The problem is, short of re-appointing Allardyce they will not truly accept anyone. I think this sums it up nicely. They have been punching above their weight for many years now. In many ways they are a bit like us, in that they now have an entire generation of young fans who have only known the premiership years and do not remember what it was like in the days before Allardyce/The Reebok stadium, and they therefore expect this to be the norm. I think they have outstayed their welcome in the prem and look forward to them returning to the level that their attendances deserve.
