Social media is toxic, its also sometimes a load of garbage and if some players careers are dictated by words on here, twitter etc then they shouldnt be playing professional football. ALL teams have some muppet supporters, I believe we have a great fanbase personally You've just perfectly summed up the problem we have. You're living in a bubble mate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALL teams have some muppet supporters, I believe we have a great fanbase personally I've sat in about 3 genuinely toxic crowds - the biggest was when we got relegated at Coventry. Wednesday fans don't normally get on players backs but this past few years as seen more of it due to the distinct lack of effort in a huge amount of games With regards to young players coming through I would like to think that all Wednesday fans would love to see a good clutch come through and become good first team players. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember Torres at Chelsea? Utterly useless, but the fans stuck behind him and always sung songs about him.

Imagine if your 15 year old lad was thrown onto the pitch at Hillsborough in the first team He gave 100% week in week out, blood, sweat and tears but just wasn't quite good enough really So the crowd abuse him See the absolute stupidity of it? 2 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIGHERSTATE Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 (edited) I swear a lot of people who follow Wednesday grew up in an industrial environment when shouting people down to get a reaction was the norm. Nowadays giving players encouragement and sticking together you're labelled as a snowflake. Nothing good can come out of this. It's just simple respect for another person.

I'd suggest a season ticket at the Etihad or Nou Camp if you're only satisfied with ability, most of the time you'll struggle for that consistently at Hillsborough 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
