It starts the same way....crowd dissatisfaction going from booing the team and it moves on to something organised if that doesn't have the desired effect. The problem Wednesday fans have at the minute is the confusion about who to boo. Westwood/Hutch/Monk/ chansiri....? every f.ookers mainly booing summat different to every other...Thats why you had the spats in the North and on the Kop... The clapping of Urogohide...another mix up...most on the Kop were clapping Borner who came over to console the lad who obviously overwrought. There is no real target..or at least an agreed one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the Chairman will also have a true picture of exactly how many people are coming through the turnstiles too. Thats more likely to have an effect than any protest - and certainly when the target of any protest is on the rides in Japan. Moaning on a forum is a great outlet for frustrated fans. People shouldnt take it personally, especially those who think the Chairman is doing a good job. I dont think he has done enough to warrant the status of doing a good job.

Spookone Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 It's just 22 men kicking a football around for 90 minutes - some people take all this way too seriously in my humble opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nero Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Weird thread this. Thought the fans AT THE GAME were pretty patient yesterday. Players couldn't really complain overall. Yet somehow it was apparently a crapfest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Farrell Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Low season ticket sales are sending DC a powerful message. Fans have backed him for 5 years in terms of paying the crazy prices, and stumping up in advance. Now people are saying enough is enough, he can't say he hasn't been supported. It's a stronger message than any protest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littleowl74 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 There was some booing of Dawson but I agree thought it could have been more toxic. I think the fact we had a crap ref took some of the heat off the players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthefish2002 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I dont think the players could complain about the atmosphere yesterday. Yes a bit flat and odd person booing at the end but considering recent performances all quite mild really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or you sing about not being fit to wear the shirt to the team? Or you say you want us to lose the next match if that gets us rid of monk, or that relegation would be a good thing so we can have a clear out? Whatever goes on at the club there is still a team on the pitch we should be wanting to win as fans of, and as supporters we can help them do that by actually supporting them and not trying to wreck their confidence. The team is clearly devoid of confidence, why are a section of fans trying to make it worse? Critique them on here, facebook, praise or grumble, your friends and family all you like. Once you start doing it at Hillsborough while they're actually playing you're being an absolute nuisance and doing no good. If you are vocally abusing the team you are hindering us. If you are like this please just leave the game and think about going to watch Man City/Barcelona/Sheffield Steelers/United and view Wednesday from afar until we reach a level you're happy with because you're a man child glory supporting fickle fan who expects to see winning football. We can get rid of any bad eggs at the club in future but right now we need to get the best out of all players including the bad eggs or it is not looking good for us. I'm just not really sure what the expectations are for a lot of fans. We've been out of the PL for 20 years. We do not have a divine right to be there, not do I buy the crap that we're a big club a deserve to be there. We've done nothing worthy of such an expectation. The club can't function at L1 or Championship level as a viable business. How on earth could we compete at the highest level in our current state. Throwing money at it won't solve it. We'd be a laughing stock. We need to take stock, consolidate and put together a business plan for minimum 5 years to get us heading in the right direction. If I see the right things happening at SWFC behind the scenes and on the pitch I don't really care what league we're in. I just want a well run forward thinking club.
