SuperMikey Posted 12 February, 2011 Share Posted 12 February, 2011 If you can afford a season ticket why the f**k are you always mithering on about tuition fees? There's a rather large gap between £300 a year to watch Saints 23 times and paying £9000 a year for something your generation got for free...but we've done this argument already several times Dune me ol' mucker.

Papa Shango Posted 12 February, 2011 Share Posted 12 February, 2011 No, it was forever blowing bubbles, with EXACTLY the same words, apart from they changed the words "but like my dreams they fade and die" to "Like west ham they fade and die" Why the flying f*ck are some of our utter mong fans singing about West Ham for? There were a load of mongs singing it at Millwall last season, presumably in a pathetic attempt to wind up their fans. Totally cringe-worthy and embarrassing. Also, I heard some fans chant "We all hate Leeds scum" at a game this season as well. WTF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kpturner Posted 12 February, 2011 Share Posted 12 February, 2011 Some of our fans really do need their heads looked at. 93rd minute we pass the ball in a triangle between Fonte, Harding and Chamberlain for about a minute. We are 1-0 and have a history of conceding late goals and these players are running the clock down in the middle of the pitch. Behind me come screams to knock it forward and get on with it, one of them even complained when Davis and Butterfield were wasting time in the second half - Unbelievable.Yes, I couldn't believe my ears!

The9 Posted 13 February, 2011 Share Posted 13 February, 2011 Something no-one has mentioned about the N'Guessan substitution yet is that both Fonte and Davis (the two players nearest the Northam at the time) went out of their way to applaud N'Guessan as he was leaving the pitch.

hoares Posted 13 February, 2011 Share Posted 13 February, 2011 Personally I did not cheer when he got taken off but I the vibe I got was not that he was subbed but the timing of it!

ant Posted 13 February, 2011 Share Posted 13 February, 2011 Totally agree - the ironic cheering was moronic and counter-productive to the spirit of a new player and the team as a whole. Arguably a game like today against a team as poor as Carlisle is a good time to bed the guy into the way the team plays. A bit of match sharpness wouldn't hurt either given that he's not had many minutes of first team football until very recently. Having read the thread I'm glad that I'm not the only one that's hacked off with portions of the Northam 'gang.' I've near enough always sat (er stood) there because it has consistently been one of the loudest areas of the ground and I have to admit I tend to favour the noise, chanting and so on when done the right way. What isn't appreciated is the million-mph banging of the backboards, irrelevant of current chant (I swear there were people with at least a vague notion of rhythm at some point, weren't there?); telling away fans to **** off every time they dare to pipe up; chants of "LET 'IM DIE" whenever an opposition player goes down; the frightening amount of racism and homophobia spouted; the stunning arrogance shown towards 'small' clubs and inability to accept that we're a League One club until we prove over a full season that we deserve not to be; the constant need for a scapegoat on the pitch; the obsession with singing about just how damn much we hate Pompey at the start of a match (how about piping up with something positive about our own club first?)... Sadly I could go on but plenty of points have already been raised in other posts. To suggest that the entire stand is like this is a daft generalisation little better than implying that all football fans are thugs and hooligans. However there sadly is a sizeable minority of so-called-fans that fit the profile and they seem to be concentrated into quite specific areas. I took my girlfriend to the Notts County game (sat at the back of Block 42) and was disappointed and ashamed with the picture of Saints fans that she took away from it On more than one occasion today I cast an envious eye over to the Kingsland North - there was one song going on at a time, rather than pockets of people trying to chant over each other and there seemed to be far less abuse in general coming from that section. Those of you that sit there on a regular basis - is that indicative of most matches? Given that I'm not a 'true' enough fan to hold a season ticket (read: not well off enough to buy one without a payment plan), I might just have to transfer across for the Swindon match...

BadgerBadger Posted 13 February, 2011 Share Posted 13 February, 2011 Although I agree with many sentiments of this thread and I don't agree with the cheering of him being subbed but aren't you all getting a little precious about this. 1.There's always going to be morons at football matches, I'm lucky enough to enjoy the better bits of the Northam due to not being surrounded by said morons but passionate intelligent fans. 2.The guys a footballer, he needs to man up and get on and improve his game. The more voiciferous fans are always going to be fickle and he'll soon be a hero if he makes the grade, it's not a frigging creche out there it's a mans game watched by people who pay his mighty fine wages.

toofarnorth Posted 13 February, 2011 Share Posted 13 February, 2011 I think the boos were in part a reaction to Atkins previous sub, taking Lambert off when he was clearly offering more than N'Guessan. He could have moved Guly to the wing and brought Barnard on. The jury is still out on both N'Guessan & Forte, because they both look sh*t so far. Didn't hear any boos from where I was and thought he was warmly applauded. He didn't have a great game, but I thought Forte looked lively when he came n and his movement was very good. On another day he'd have had two very good chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrian lord Posted 13 February, 2011 Share Posted 13 February, 2011 I bet the fans slating N'Guessan were the same idiots that orchestrated the anti-Hoddle campaign in 2004. They are complete numbheads and have not learnt learnt their lesson. You would think that bringing the club to its knees was enough, but still they are at it ! Doubt it - the NGuessian barrackers would have still been in short trousers in 2004. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostBoys Posted 13 February, 2011 Share Posted 13 February, 2011 Although I was taken to the Dell aged three I played football for 25 years before becoming a ST holder and the one thing that it teaches you is that you have to stick together. I cannot understand booing your own players or cheering when they are subbed. We have had some real w.....rs playing or rather not playing for us in recent years (Wright and Makin were my favourites) but the treatment of N'Guessan yesterday when he was total crap but after Exeter when he was apparently good is totally unacceptable and I cannot see how it supports the team.

sammysaint Posted 13 February, 2011 Share Posted 13 February, 2011 Was unlucky today lets all remember players have poor games as some has mentioned chambo has had some poor games as well as his amazing ones but no one boos him, i think you boo boys you have to either boo everyone who plays poor or dont boo at all. I think if we wasn't down to 10 he would of come off 5-10 mins before he did, lets remember hes not going to get 70-80 mins very often as hes cover for lallana and chambo and i think he would be a good impact player once he knows the system, he must be doing something right in training for nigel to pick him as we have enough cover in midfield for him to be on the bench even when we have injuries.

JRM Posted 13 February, 2011 Share Posted 13 February, 2011 I was stood in the Northam today which is a rarity for me and some of the little chants that were coming from the top were quite embarrassing. Singing about plastic fans on one hand and then singing (to the Carlisle fans) your grounds to big for you, on the other. Make your minds up guys, are you happy to see a fuller sms or not. Oh and just so you know, Carlisle's ground isn't too big for them I've had a season ticket 2/3rds of the way back in the northam and I'm planning on moving next season, there's hardly any atmosphere now anyway and the songs today reached a new low of cringeworthy rubbish. Constantly singing at block 43 that they are plastic fans is completely bizarre , and "sit down if you're here each week" was very embarrassing. Ironically I don't recognise many of these morons from away games. Pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW I don't boo or cheer players being subbed. I am not a precious fan who is easily upset by songs, more embarassed by the crap chanting. I know what you are trying to say about him manning up and i dont agree with players moaning about being upset by the fans etc but really, to get on the lads back on his first team debut is f*cking ridiculous. It might be justified if he'd been crap over the course of 20 games and didn't deserve his place but having seen him be one of, if not our best player at Exeter then to get on his back so early is ridculous.

(not THE) Kevin Moore Posted 13 February, 2011 Share Posted 13 February, 2011 probably the same people who had made their minds up that Guly was rubbish based on a 'so-so' performance against Swindon in the JPT. Absolutely no allowances made for being new to the club and having to adapt to a new way of playing, new team mates, new (moronic) fans... Am I right in thinking N'Guessan hasn't had much game time of late? He's going to be a bit rusty and will have up and downs... Also the fact he's a winger will by the nature of the position mean he's going to be good and bad at times, can't think of too many wingers who have been consistently brilliant, partly because they can be easier to isolate and the ball doesn't go out wide as often as it stays in the middle. Obviously to take any of these things into account you need to be something other than a ****tard reactionary d1nlo with no footballing brain.

Hopkins Posted 13 February, 2011 Share Posted 13 February, 2011 Am I right in thinking N'Guessan hasn't had much game time of late? He's going to be a bit rusty and will have up and downs... He had a good 70 minutes against Exeter, where he was our best player by most accounts. Wouldn't be surprised if all the people cheering yesterday are fans who don't go to the away games and therefore have this complete lack of awareness that away game performances count too. Almost as if they think the only games that players must be judged on are the ones they watch at home. He's clearly going to have moments of frustration. Moments of unpredictability. But in the classic Saints fan pessimistic spaztastic way we take those moments of unpredictability and moments of frustration as signs that he is guff and refuse to even look at the positive side of the player that he is clearly going to rip full backs to pieces on his day. If he was fantastically consistent he wouldn't be anywhere near a league one. We should learn to love his frustrations because with some encouragement there is no doubt in my mind from yesterdays showing he is going to give us some awesome moments over the next few months. Maybe not just in the form of goals as such but he is definitely going to skin full backs for fun when he's at his best and provide our strikers with some good chances.

What do they say form is temporary class is permanent. I wonder what his track record shows........... class or................... He was a complete liability it was like playing with ten men. I thought the cheer was because they knew Lallana was coming on rather than him going off. I am sure he didnt sob himself to sleep However, he is a big strong boy and hopefully he will find his place.

This comment alone shows how much attention you were paying to the game. Enough to make your mind up on N'Guessan but apparently not enough to notice that Lallana was on for 35 minutes before N'Guessan came off. I don't understand why people cannot see that there is a difference between a bad player, and a player who has a bad game. He had a bad game, that is all.
