I said anyone who boos their own team is an idiot.

Happy to clear up your delusion.

That's alot of idiots at Odsal then because they were a hell of a lot of people booing tonight.

Indeed there are.

According to some posters on other threads it would be 8400.......maybe not! 4000 Bulls stampeded at half time! 4000 Bulls not moowing but booooooooooing!

Sorry. Poetic licence. Joking apart, credit to the true fans that turned up and stayed till then end. Must have been a bit of a sickner. Don't know of any consolation you can take from this game.

On the now-locked thread, an accusation
was made which - since its in the public domain - I'd like to answer. Then I will refer to it no more.

As I said, I do not recognise that as a quote from me. What I DO recognise is these exchanges, from just before the Leeds match on a thread suggesting we should actually get behind the team







The "debate" continued, but I won't bore people with the details (check out the thread if you can;t sleep) since apart from some limited backsliding from ME, little of worth was added.

Then, we had, post-match





Now: I presume this is the exchange where I allegedly said "99% of Bradford fans did not boo as it would be unacceptable" or words to that effect?

If so, I would suggest that - once again - ME has twisted and corrupted what was actually said, and used it out of context. In particular, you will see that the discussion was specifically about the coach being booed when he came out, and my "99%" was clearly referring to the fact that when he DID come out and when his face WAS shown on the big screen you heard little if any booing.

So, ME, I state that your allegation was untruthful.

But I leave the readers to judge for themselves.

Meh, I laughed at how pathetic we were during the game. Then became sickened by it as I ate half a chicken in Nandos after the game.

Try as I might, neither can I.

My consolation is that I didn't go in the first place... and alcohol.

Everybody has a right to boo and it doesn't make you an idiot even if you do so choose to. People are expected to cheer good play and effort so there should be no eyebrows raised or foul looks passed when people choose to boo poor play and lack of effort.

Everybody does have. Same way as you might if you went to a rubbish concert or play or whatever.

Is it likely to improve the team's performance during a game though if you boo them while they are playing? I think that may be what the (maybe a bit strong) reference to "idiots" refers to? "Bobsmyuncle", in what I thought was a balanced and reasoned post on another thread, said "I did not Boo my club's players and did not leave before the end as IMO that would be counterproductive." Sounds reasonable to me.

WE beat you last week.

I wasnt booing tonight.. I was cheering.. best game i have seen in almost a month

Who know's, it might? It depends what sort of character one may have. Personally I would take booing as criticism and dissaproval and if I was criticised either privatley or publically it would more than likley give me the incentive to improve myself. They way I see it is as I have explained previously good play will be cheered, poor play will be jeered. I'd like to make it clear though that booing from me personally does not come instantly to poor play though, but more as a build up of frustration at continued poor play. I think that's reasonable for any supporter in my eyes.
