No worries mate. I know that I normally p155 about on here but not after tonight. I guess with the joke alter ego etc. that's the problem as it means people don't know when you are serious. My bad.
I just wanted to say that when you really care you get to a point where you no longer think and if you boo you do it because you instinctively feel that is the right way to show your feelings I stood their stunned and sort of clapped but it was weird. I have to abmit that it's the first team I've ever felt embarrassed. I've seen the best performances and the worst ones since I went to my first game in 1991 but personally if the team got relegated (before it was scrapped) but whilst fighting it I would still feel proud but the team seemed beat since the kick off!

| I thought the booing of Platt when he had scored was fairly pathetic.

| Quote: Adeybull "On the now-locked thread, an accusation
I am sure people can judge. Last week you were quick to use 99% of the crowd as a reason to back up your own points. This week there were quite a bit more than 1% who appeared to have issues with the coach and the side.
As for it being untruthful? Your inference was clearly there as you suggest that booing was unacceptable at the game.
You used this as a bit of comfort last week but the fact is now that the opinion is clearly different from the one that you spoke of last week.

Plenty of people for you to get your claws into this week then isn't there?

| There was a lot of boos ringing out last night. It made me feel sick.
Horrible. I can't imagine how it made the players feel.

| And besides, some Bulls fans have got a lot to learn about booing. Some of the Warrington fans were booing their own players as they were announced. That's true dedication, travelling all the way over to boo the team!

I am sick and tired of you twisting what people say to suit your own perverted ends. You have a very long track record of doing it. Its not clever. Its dishonest. You lied about what I actually said, then when I proved you to be a liar you just continue down a different route of attempting to demonstrate that something different was said or meant to what actually was.
There were many very very angry and dispirited fans on here last night posting genuine emotion and genuine feelings. I entirely respect their views and their right to do and post what they do, even if I don't always agree. Unfortunately we had one dishonest supposed supporter on - you - who it appeared could just not wait to get on to show how clever he was and how smart he was at twisting what people said to suit his own nasty mean little agenda. If you want to come on and rub people's noses in it then fine - I and others did that to you last week. But do it honestly and don't lie.
Emotion, passion, genuine anger I am fine with. But dishonesty from a seeming attention-seeking drama queen who appears to thrive on the club's problems deserves nothing but contempt. We have enough problems to contend with without you fanning the flames.
I have no intention of entering into protracted debate with you, since the attention appears to be all you really want out of your time on here, so we won't need to trouble the mods further.

Yes, they may well have done. And probably a lot more emotions too. And on that showing most of them could have few grounds to argue.
But have you ever had any success in motivating people on your team through humiliation? I haven't in all my God-knows how many years of managing people. I'm not sure how you DO motivate some of that lot (a bazooka may be one option, but its probably a little too anti-social) but I'm sure there must be more effective ways. The trouble is, we as fans have limited options compared to the coaching staff, and as paying customers the players will surely realise why some fans reacted the way they did.
I heard little booing in the area of the stand where I am, although you could hear some pockets of it. Some Localised Macca Out shouts near the end. If fans want to vent their feelings that way, they have every right to.
But what was far more worrying to me was the general look of stunned despair on so many faces, and the number of people leaving early saying I've had enough of this. It was the silence, the numbness, that was scary. In the long run, we are going to lose dedicated supporters, and unfortunately that could be the real legacy of what we saw last night.

Oh I am happy to rub peoples' noses in it. Shame that some of them will not post on here for a while till the next win.
As for being dishonest? Come on. Your inference was perfectly clear.
