Sour Mash Posted 21 April, 2012 Posted 21 April, 2012 Did we lose today due to the lack of support up at Boro? Team lack focus when running out to see banks of empty seats in the away end? Can you blame them for thinking if the supporters can't be bothered, why should we?
Glasgow_Saint Posted 21 April, 2012 Posted 21 April, 2012 If the players cant be inspired by 3,000+ making a 600 mile round trip then they should give up the great game! I thought the travelling support was great and could see the players felt our pain at the end
Hedgehog Posted 21 April, 2012 Posted 21 April, 2012 How stupid a comment. If you are playing any game it shouldn't matter about who is watching. If i play a game of pool in the pub i want to beat the opponent regardless of who is watching. You want to beat your opponent end off!

Can you blame them for thinking if the supporters can't be bothered, why should we? 2,922 fans a "lack of support"? Did you see how empty the home sections were? If either side was going to be affected by lack of support it would have been Middlesbrough, especially considering they still had something to play for and weren't facing a 600 mile round trip.

Too true! The boro support was a joke

Can you blame them for thinking if the supporters can't be bothered, why should we? I presume you are joking? Or ... no, I can't continue as it might be construed as offensive, and as a teacher I have to be supportive of all, whatever their handicaps.

They need a win for promotion?
Matthew Le God Posted 21 April, 2012 Posted 21 April, 2012 They need a win for promotion? If they didn't win their season was over, if Saints didn't win their season still continues. It was a game in their own city. Not a 600 mile round trip away and a 5:20pm kickoff. 2,992 is a very good turnout.

Yes i did notice the empty seats and I found it very strange. As must have you. Didn't you say only this week no club has ever had any problem filling their newly built stadiums. build it and they will come. Oh.
Matthew Le God Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 Didn't you say only this week no club has ever had any problem filling their newly built stadiums. build it and they will come. Nope, you have just made that up, I said no such thing. If you think I did please provide a link.
Turkish Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 I just hope thy didn't read this forum. Lots of "too much effort" type comments. I keep hearing how great it is to be a Saints fan right nw yet this only seems to apply when it's. Nice local awaygame or glamour home game.
Turkish Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 Nope, you have just made that up, I said no such thing. If you think I did please provide a link. So are you denying you post on the UI as Dirk Dunne or whatever you call yourself on there?

sandwichsaint Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 MLG and Turkish ... two eunuchs arguing over a condom. (If you build it, they will come)
ThreeSixty Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 If this is the case, i'm surprised Boro even came out of the changing room.
wagon 84 Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 Just got back now, all 2992 i salute you all.. top effort..
doddisalegend Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 Solent had a chat with ex saint/boro player Neil Maddison after the game who said the saints fans where fantastic and made for the best atmosphere at the Riverside this season which perversly...........seemed to make the boro players raise their game...so maybe a few less should have gone:?
Dr Who? Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 They need a win for promotion? Surely that should be we needed a win for promotion no they, you are applying that they are a different team to who you support?

EastleighSoulBoy Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 Just got back now, all 2992 i salute you all.. top effort.. Agreed, magnificent support. for what it's worth, i was disappointed by the result but we are still in the race and my belief is still strong.
Griffo Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 A post on an England fans forum about our support.. Says they've never seen so many wigs, jester hats, face paint and just general clowns. What is wrong with some people? Make the rest of us look like c*nts just because they want a bit of attention.
Viking Warrior Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 On my way back to Aberdeen to catch ferry home . And saw this thread . Our end was fantastic . Lots of singing even if many of us were deflated with the outcome . The op is either taking the **** about the away support or is a total Mong . Hoping to get down for the Coventry game if I can get a ticket . I'm on the reserve list so was disappointed to here the club were selling returned Coventry tickets when they said they would know him many till Monday . Why are trains so slow on a Sunday
georgeg Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 well said Viking and a great effort on your part ... hope you get down next Sat for the mother of all parties!!!!

docker-p Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 Support in numbers was good yesterday. But there it ends. Why oh why do people have to wear jester hats, paint their faces and generally make themselves look like ****s is beyong me. And is there any other club in the world that deems it necessary to sing a song about their CEO, truly cringworthy.

Why do they feel the need to do it?
Viking Warrior Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 Anybody have a spare ticket for next Saturday . DERRY ? I need to sort out flights etc just over 2 hours to go before I get to Aberdeen
sotonjoe Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 Well done to all those who made the trip. Pleased to see Griffo got on TV... W

wagon 84 Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 Iv just watched the game back on TV, & got to so i was cringing at the wig wearing clowns that seem to follow our football club! You are nothing more than an embarrassment ! please understand you are attending a football match! not a 5 year old girls birthday party. PLEASE STOP IT!!!
70's Mike Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 Iv just watched the game back on TV, & got to so i was cringing at the wig wearing clowns that seem to follow our football club!

You are nothing more than an embarrassment ! please understand you are attending a football match! not a 5 year old girls birthday party. PLEASE STOP IT!!! last away games of the season used to fancy dress...up and down the country for many many teams.. they usually had a theme though
dune Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 Iv just watched the game back on TV, & got to so i was cringing at the wig wearing clowns that seem to follow our football club! You are nothing more than an embarrassment ! please understand you are attending a football match! not a 5 year old girls birthday party. PLEASE STOP IT!!! Tell me about it. I don't go that often anymore, but have noticed these weirdos in ever increasing numbers this season. A decade ago you didn't see it, and fine if it's kids, but we're talking 30-50 year old adults here.
Viking Warrior Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 On the boat home about midnight . The sea looks calm for a change . Docker and co why do you choose to knock folk that go to our penultimate game of the season . It's a bit of fun and I thought it was going to be a carnival atmosphere . It started off that way . I wore a red and white wig and had my face paint for the Johnstone paint final . I had a fantastic day out with my fellow saints fans at Wembley . God some of you guys are real Saddos even alpine has a bit of humour and fun about him . Perhaps you want to go back to the thirties and flat caps and hobnail boots . Those of us that went yesterday had fun until the final whistle went . 30 minutes to go before the ferry sails for home
dune Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 I wore a red and white wig and had my face paint for the Johnstone paint final. God some of you guys are real Saddos. Alpine has a bit of humour and fun about him . Where do I start?
Orange Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 I was a bit dissapointed with our support vocally, but watching it back on TV this morning we actually sounded pretty decent to be fair. As for adults who feel the need to dress up like morons, dear oh dear. LOOK AT ME I'M ON TV!!! Camera men make a habit of filming them though.
Colbury Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 I'm actually considering sitting in the home end at the next away game I attend , so I'm as far away as our clown fans as possible. Embarrassing, cringeworthy and other than a select few , a bunch of utter mongs.
CFSFC Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 Anyone who wore fancy dress, took time to blow up balloons, wore a stupid hat then you make me feel violently ill.
JustMike Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 Anyone who wore fancy dress, took time to blow up balloons, wore a stupid hat then you make me feel violently ill. grow up
kpturner Posted 22 April, 2012 Posted 22 April, 2012 I am a fairly intolerant bloke it must be said. I do not suffer fools gladly, as they say. HOWEVER, I have absolutely no problem whatsoever with people wearing fancy dress, hats, blowing up balloons, painting their face et al for a football match. Why the f*** do people care about it? Are you worried that people might think it is you or what?
