adelphi1867 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 What do some fans do all day?, do they sit at the PC just waiting for the Club to make mistakes and then pounce gleefully on them?. Where are the same fans when the Club / team get it right?. 2 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people go a bit OTT after a bad result, but equally I find it cringeworthy the other way with people making heroes out of the players after 1 good result. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeathrowOwl Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 I swear most of our fans would rather us lose every game just so that they could moan on here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ash76 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 In general terms I hate our fans, if I ever stop going that will be the reason why Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castleford Owl Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 (edited) It’s funny how the consensus always seems to be that we have great fans. The reality is we don’t. We’re either over the top confident or poisonous. No in between. Generally speaking of course. Edited October 24, 2018 by Castleford Owl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes we do have people how enjoy stirring and moaning over bad results but all clubs have fans like that. Also people need to remember out of players, coaches, journalists and fans its only the fans who have paid to be there. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mkowl Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Could be argued that the same old fans perpetually look to smooth over the cracks that are evident to most of us. On and off the field there are issues. Is it too much to ask that we demand the best rather than putting up with average Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

torryowl Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 I just find it strange that it doesn't transmit to negativity down at the ground on matchdays …..you'd think with fans with such poisonous views the boo's & jeers and the "jos out" chants would be reverberating around the stadium …..I wonder why it doesn't seem to happen . 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonofbert2 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 I sat behind a bloke last night who is probably one of the most negative supporters I have ever come across. I told him to stop shaking his head before it fuckingfell off and that was in our early good patch. He was ripping into Baker who he thought was Lees and over the game as we talked he got full house for OT Negative Bingo - KW, Hirst, Clare, fake injuries, get Hutch back in etc the lot! It was nailed on he posted on here so I said, "I'm dreading going on OT later if we can't get back into it soon" to see his response. He'd never heard of it . Got fed up of his moaning so I kept sniffing loudly behind him until it finished just behind his hearing aid. It was like he hated us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurujuan Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 I’d find it even more bizarre if people came on here praising the side following a 3-0 defeat to QPR As I mentioned in another post, expect plaudits when you do well, but brickbats when you don’t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
