poorlyheadowl Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Had an absolute barrage of hate on Twitter over the weekend from fans of other clubs, quite a roasting tbh. I can see why the blunts, dingles, toy town etc would be giving it out, but manure, naarich, brizzle etc. Quite baffling as we've not had much interaction with them over the years The only commiserations has been from my blunt fan father in law! I really don't get the hatred. I always had the impression we were the "second team" for a lot of fans from other clubs. Seems not. For the record I'm not one to ever give it large on Twitter etc, just a casual user. I can only imagine what some of our more vocal fans have witnessed. Very odd. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markg Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Quite a lot of fans don’t like how we broke the spending rules I guess. Not that we are the only ones to do that 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lord Snooty Posted May 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 9, 2021 Didn't we once come top 5 in a poll of disliked clubs? Suspect our non-ironic ,embarrassing ,referring of other clubs as being "tinpot" probably hasn't won us many friends. 9 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post CalmJimmers Posted May 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 9, 2021 Twitter tho. It's just intellectually challenged individuals adding their own p!ss into a vast sea of p!ss. Don't think many people really care what we do outside of the local area. We haven't been relevant in 20 years. 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being of the older generation its all a bit foreign to me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earlsfieldowl Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Best just to stay off Twitter. What other people think of the club is completely irrelevant so wouldn’t give it a moments thought 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Other clubs have some self-righteous tw@ts for fans. Yes, by all means kicks us in the b@lls for breaking the rules but we all know they’ll be singing a f**king different tune should they find themselves on the other side of the fence? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sefton owl Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 I’m just gutted derby stayed up and not Rotherham as they gave it absolutely everything. As a club We have been poorly ran now for far too long but so have Derby and have been incredibly fortunate to stay up because i dare say footballing wise they have been worse than us. Hope to god they will struggle next season and I think they will especially if rooney still at the helm. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PEARSON Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Best thing I did was come off Twitter. Pure hell of a website. Every topic just results in toxic, self-entitled, political garbage. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even posting seemingly innocuous stuff, you’ll find someone taking a contrarian viewpoint just for the sake of trying to trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pOWLtergeist Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Can't believe how much grief we're getting off Blunt fans, I mean they've had a cracking season and are in line to break a couple of Premier league records. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not for local/geographical reasons as I’m not even in England, but because I thought they fully deserved to. Whereas everything about both Derby and Rooney I find repulsive!

ohgoditsjames Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 I see ticket prices for away matches being one reason, as if they don’t realise that the hole fans get screwed over even more. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
