agentwalker Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 is a bit sad but not having fan's in the ground to voice there disapproval was a major factor in Monk and other's overstaying their welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting you view it that way rather than 'Not having fans in the ground to cheer and urge the players on was a major factors in us not gettin better results' Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players drive the crowd. They show some effort and get stuck in, the fans push them on. If they play crap the fans get on their backs. Just the way it is and always has been. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve heard many times how Wednesday players sometimes find it difficult to play at Hillsborough, due to the level of supporter expectation. So when there was no crowd, such pressure should have been off. Put simply, either the players were crap, Monk was crap or more likely, both.

No one claimed nothing negative was said towards Hunt as a player, very few if any Wednesday player manages that But you are claiming everyone did. Bit sad really. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shezzas left peg Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Take the ruff with the smooth. You put a shift in and play well you get the cheer, applause, standing ovation etc.. You aimlessly wander about with little effort or urgency and don't do what your highly paid for, then you need to take the stick. I played all levels of rugby for batley and into the first team for a while before my injury (busted knee, anterior and cruciate ligaments snapped). We used to go watch the first team, they lost far more than they won, but always put a shift in and did lose becouse they just whent good enough. So we very rarely had a go at them for it. For me it's all I ask, give it your best and if you loose to a better team it can't be helped. Also made it so much sweeter when we beat someone we really shouldn't have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
