Booing of Guly

[John D]

Anyone ever thought why he gets boo'ed?/QUOTE]

 

He gets booed because we have a minority bunch of knobhead fans who have no understanding of of football or the concept of supporting the team.

[St Chalet]

My 5 year old boy asked me why everyone was booing a Saints player. I really couldn't explain to a boy who idolises all things all things Southampton that we have a bunch of bellends who turn on their own.

 

The booing was quickly drowned out by 'Guly Del Prado' chants, emanating from the Northam.

 

thought Guly did well when he came on for Jrod who had put in a great shift, still that won't matter to those who write the bloke off every week.

[Pedro]

Had a major disagreement with a guy who booed him off the pitch, he wanted to sort me out (a pensioner) outside. I'm not a Guly lover but if NA decided to bring him on then I support him. Booing our own before he steps on the pitch was a disgrace and NA and AC clearly were upset by it, well done to the Northam for singing his name.

[Glasgow_Saint]

I think some of our fans were deeply affected by our relegation to League 1 and now settle for mediocrity and being 2nd best

 

nobody booed Guly - they booed the decision to bring him on!!!

Sums up the people who view, too thick to debate but just offer you out as they are not bright enough to do anything else.

[Appy]

The people who boo Guly are probably the same people who praise De Ridder.

lol

[There when Franny scored]

Guly did the exact job he was brought on to do in that he maintained possession in the final third. Did Reading have any chances from open play when he was on the pitch?

 

Anyone booing him at that stage of such an important game is brain dead and has no place supporting Saints in my opinion.

[ALWAYS_SFC]

All of the fans who booed GDP are utter W ank ers...without any doubt W ank ers

[Whitey Grandad]

He did ok. Shame he didn't score.

Have you literally got nothing better to do than to come on here and talk shît?

 

Guly did very well when he came on, he looked lively, made some good runs with the ball, passed it around nicely on the left and stretched their centre backs. He did his job, and as Saints fans we need to do our job and get behind the players that pull on the Saints shirt.

 

He hasn't actually been bad this season, he was great against Man City and probably our best player against West Ham. I literally have no idea why people seem to dislike him so much.

This forum is about opinions, would you like everyone to agree with you? Would be really boring no?

 

We have different views - on Guly the are very different. I thought he was average vs Man City and one of our worst players vs West Ham

 

Thats my opinion

It's the vocal minority, the same ones who kicked up over Hoddle's return in 2004.

 

Then when the club struggles they point the fingers at anyone but themselves.

 

What saddens me is the sheep that follow. Plenty of them in 2004 but they won't admit to nearly destroying the club.

but why boo the decision to bring him on?

 

I don't rate Fox, you didn't see me booing the decision to bring him on a few weeks back.

[Depressed of Shirley]

I think Guly also needs to take a look at himself, hes been poor for a very long time!

 

lackluster performances + no goals in 28 games....... Fans pay there money and are entitled to boo if they so choose imho

 

Which is why I am glad you never go to a game. People who boo, with no justification, should f**k off and support someone else, a point forcefully made to someone sat near me in the ground today.

[Glasgow_Saint]

1) Our form over the last 6 games has vastly improved

2) our win at home to Villa

 

These two have one thing in common............ No Guly

They won't be happy until they bring the club to its knees again.

[Stud mark of doom]

It was a disgrace.

 

And he was very good today IMO

Didnt say i would boo..... Just understand why some might choose to do so

bloody hell, is there a subject you can't bring GH into? The man does not deserve to have any job,let alone at our club. I was fervently against him and still am. I don't regret being against him.

[Chez]

y and one of our worst players vs West Ham

 

Thats my opinion

and everyone is entitled to one, but with that comment my opinion is that yours is worthless when it comes to Guly. Davis apart, he was our best player that day, so you quite clearly so blinded by your hatred that it is effecting your judgement.

[Glasgow_Saint]

I would boo Hoddle if i saw him

There you go, put him on the list.

You might be right here - not hatred but i dont rate him at all so could be blinded sometimes

[Dalek2003]

Did you do this in 2004 ? If so you can join the list of shame as well.

[Glasgow_Saint]

Oi

Did anyone boo Hoddle...... He was popular until he left? People then decided they didnt want him back (he had no loyalty) simples

[OldNick]

the man walked out on the club at a crucial time, he never apologised for his arrogance and as for his comments on people with disabilities it was shameful. The moral high ground was with the people against him, as they had the fibre to see the good from the bad. RL chose a bad alternative, GH was not the only man around who could do a good job,

[Dalek2003]

No loyalty in football ? Now that surprises me.

 

Because it is a nonsense to say that money rules in the Premier league.

[Chez]

fair enough. We've improved the first team so he's a squad player now so you won't have to suffer as often. If he is playing it's because we need him, so just get behind him when that times comes and perhaps he'll make a crucial difference in a game that keeps us up. I am not sure why I am defending him. Drink drivers like him should be hung drawn and quartered in my book.

[Ziggy]

The booing was awful. Well done to the fans who tried to get behind him. What possible good could booing him do? I don't rate him but would never boo anyone wearing the shirt. And he did well today. I would have loved his effort to have gone in the top corner.

[S-Clarke]

The people who boo Guly are probably the same people who praise De Ridder.

 

lol, very good.

I guess you were not at the game. Some meatheads were booing Guly long after he came on today. There is no justification for booing a player when he comes on, all this "fans pay their money so they are entitled to boo players" is bull****. No-one is entitled to be a moron. Booing a performance after the event can be fair game. But booing a player and directing some of the venomous comments at him when he comes on the pitch is just plain unacceptable. It rubs off on some of the kids and really is very annoying when it is not justified. I heard some kids sat behind me mocking him, saying "I saw Guly actually running" or words to that effect - just shows that youngsters pick up rubbish from some of our moronic so-called supporters, and start to believe things that are so stupid - anyone who watches Guly will know that the guy actually nearly always puts in a good shift, running is definitely not one of his shortcomings. I for one really enjoyed his cameo today, really brightened up what was otherwise quite a dull game.

[Tractor_Saint]

Guly on twitter earlier saying he isn't bothered when the fans boo him, it does upset him though when Nigel joins in

 

OK so maybe it's a parody account...

[VectisSaint]

You do know there are other managers that exist. Your obsession with Hoddle is quite worrying sometimes. Have you ever stopped to consider that actually Hoddle is not very good, as he has demonstrated by not being a manager now for several years. Hoddle's success was based on a working partnership with John Gorman. Take JG out of the equation and Hoddle is poor (likewise JG without GH is poor as well). It was a very good thing that Hoddle did not return in 2004, it would have been a disaster. He also showed himself to be a thoroughly dislikeable person through his lack of respect and his comments about disabled people (and other things he spouted off about). Nasty piece of work, hopefully we will never see him again connected with Saints. But please carry on with your obsession, it is often entertaining.

[sfc4prem]

I'd like to say it was a minority, but it wasn't, and hasn't been since it started earlier in the season.

 

He might not be an amazingly consistent player, but he does have clear quality, and is a useful squad player. The booing is beyond me. I just can't comprehend it. You're meant to be supporters of Southampton FC. Not much supporting going on when you abuse one of our own.

[Turkish]

It's all very well talking about it on here but the booing must come from somewhere. If you sit near someone that boos him do something about it, stop talking about how terrible it is from behind your keyboards. I can tell you no on near me boos Him. I'd they did they'd get ironed out.

[Jonnyboy]

Even the neutral commentators on the stream were embarrassed. They made up some excuse like "the fans at St Marys certainly werent booing Do Prado, more the decision to bring off Rodriguez."

[Saint Garrett]

he's played well on every occasion he has played in the Premiership. He was very good at West Ham and in the short cameo's as sub he has been good. SO this concept of him being poor for as very long time is a complete and utter load of ********.

 

This.

Is that the no singing, no wigs, stand-to-attention whilst wearing black section of St Mary's?

[Turkish]

If you want to call it that do so. It's actually more of the section where people back the team and know what they are on about.

The moral high ground was with the people against him, as they had the fibre to see the good from the bad. RL chose a bad alternative, GH was not the only man around who could do a good job,

Luggy wasn't bad by any means. 1.23 points per game in his short time here, more than good enough to stay up. RL's mistake was forcing Luggy out and replacing him with that wanker Wigley.

This

 

Also the attitude that you've paid your money therefore are entitled to boo makes you a customer not a supporter...and not a very bright one at that!

[iansums]

It was embarrassing.

[ant]

Well he didn't put a foot wrong today which makes the reaction beforehand even more bizarre and embarrassing.

 

Some of the morons that booed Guly were soon chanting his name when he pulled off a deft bit of interplay minutes later. It's difficult because some are blinded by idiocy (thus the "oh look, he's running!" sort of comments) whereas others are ruthlessly fickle. No excuse either way though - booing a player as he comes on (or the decision to bring him on, there's little distinction) is a disgrace.

 

Was glad to be part of the majority that took the initiative and loudly chanted his name in response.

[Saint Pete]

I neither rate nor boo Guly, but for my money a poor substitution by the manager. If we really needed to change it at that stage I would had had Lambert off (having a very average game by his standards) instead of the rather impressive Rodriguez, and brought Mayuka on perhaps.

 

Guly wasn't too terrible to be honest, and almost lobbed one in from distance, but he missed a sitter (that Lee Barnard or Billy Sharp would have gobbled up) that would have made the last ten a hell of a lot more comfortable than they were. Hey we won the game so it doesn't matter now.

 

But on another day ........

 

Yes, Guly did miss a chance, but I think you'll find that Rodriguez also missed a couple of equally good ones in the first half, and he didn't even get his efforts on target.

 

It seems that people are all too quick to criticise Guly, but conveniently forget the mistakes of more "fashionable" players.

 

Guly's link up play and touch was excellent when he came on, and he totally justified Adkins decision to bring him on in my opinion.

 

Not having a go at Rodriguez by the way, who I thought had a good game, but should have had at least one goal with the chances he had, and was tiring towards the end.

[Dig Dig]

There are a minority of absolute bellends at st marys. Didn't hear the Guly boos but some of the constant moaning and groans everytime we passed back or sideways is embarrassing....IT'S CALLED KEEPING POSSESSION FFS!!

[Spudders]

It’s amazing how clueless, fickle and sheep-like some fans are isn’t it. There were a load behind me all criticising him when he came on and singing that if he scored they’d go on the pitch, then when he had a shot and almost did score, the same people started signing his name.
