Our support vs Preston (9 Viewers)

[skybluecam]

Embarrassing.

Fans getting on players backs at 1-0.

Booing at 2/3-0.

0 atmosphere outside of the first 5-10 mins of each half.

The fucking light bullshit

We were as bad as the players today.

I mean, rightfully so - we were shit. I’m not one for leaving early or booing but today tested my patience.

I don’t get people leaving early…you could miss anything and you’ve paid to be there.
Getting pissed off and voicing this displeasure is quite different…sometimes it’s painful.

I really hated the singing for Jake Bidwell before half time. Fair enough JDS was having a shocker, but that was awful.

Absolutely.

It's easy to sing little songs to the players when we are winning most games but it's actually occasions like tonight when the team needs support. After the run we have had it was appalling the crowd turning on the team in the way they did.

It was disgraceful.

Abysmal match, result, referee and journey home but the worst thing about the night was some of our fans.

I stay to the latest point, I really needed the loo at 85m and because we looked like doing nothing I called it time.

I understand people’s frustration though, we looked not great. I did expect at least one goal.

It’s one game, no need to overreact… There’s plenty of time to catch the pack up.

I have to admit, I did find that distasteful. Let the manager decide if he needs to take a player off for having a nightmare game!

Totally agree however poor he was. I thought booing at HT was fine, no idea what the lights were about, but that to JDS was ridiculous and so unlike our fans in recent tines who have made that bond with the players really count.

No. Stunned by such a poor performance. Manu fans boo, As do most clubs fans, you’ll struggle to find a club where this does not happen.

I stopped, but the performance was way below par. Don’t blame the fans. The players and the managers are to blame. All in it together? Nah, Certain players , probably half the team, just didn’t turn up.

While we are at it, our fans stuck it out to about 80 mins, then chose to leave. Not good, but again, Premiership teams empty their stadiums when they perform poorly.

Without singing ‘We are playing fooking shit’, the booing is a better way of showing ‘unhappiness’ at the way the team is playing. This happened throughout the clubs history so we should be familiar with it by now. Or perhaps we have just been spoiled?

The lights were pathetic for whatever reason.

Agreed, but in fairness, this game was always going to be tense. Fielding that team was the wrong decision. The ‘home’ support were flat because we we’ve seeing continuation of a poor show on the pitch. Not just this game, but others too.

Man U fans are as fickle as they come, a bunch of self entitled glory hunters. We should be more resilient than that.

 

[NortonSkyBlue]

A difficult watch from start to finish. Preston are our Kryptonite for sure but we gave them 3 points very easily. A horrible evening.....embarrassing. I felt like joining in with the Preston fans with the lights. WTF was that about? A foul kick off is a new one on me as were defence splitting passes to our own players.

 

[Earlsdon-Loyal-Blue]

If you’re talking fans in the ground, they’re one of the least bad for booing. They boo referees and the owners. Rarely turn on the players or team. Admired the way they didn’t join in with the pile on with Maguire and encouraged him.

Agree with all the comments on here regarding the support on here. We can’t laud how wonderful our support is and throw the towel in and go silent after conceding 1 goal and turn to booing after the second. We had plenty of time to turn the result around, shit support last night.

I don’t know if it’s expectations that have changed it this season but there’s been multiple occasions where when we’re not winning - PUSB has become half hearted and the songs dry up.

OK. Pick any one of the 92 clubs if that helps. They can’t all be fickle fans.

It’s part of being a clubs fans. We pay the wages. I can think of worse verbal protests. Or walk out of the stadium.

I thought it was City fans with the lights. Loooked like it from where I was…was it because the game was boring?

They were singing what the f***ing hell was that

 

[stay_up_skyblues]

The lights thing was embarrassing. Looked like a little mix concert. We‘ll be a laughing stock if that carries on.

 

[torchomatic]

Yeah, that was disgraceful. A section of our fans aren't the brightest.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

As it turns out all I missed was a second half where MR was hoping to preserve the 0-3 to the extent of still bringing everyone back for corners.

That said something about that Sakamoto injury is what swayed it for me, I’ve seen us losing by similar or heavier score lines at half time and not left.

I have seen them leave early on many occasions.

I agree with you about our fans, they over rate themselves and I think often are disrespectful to other clubs amd underestimate the opposition pre match on social media.

 

[quinn1971]

Pretty sure they got booed against stoke last season aswell, seemed to do the trick surely have to let the team know that’s not acceptable, if I was a player getting booed like that, I’d make sure it didn’t happen again, the game sets the atmosphere, might aswell of not turned up and just give them the 3 points

 

[theferret]

Can't we just accept it was a bad night all round? Are people forgetting the start of this season and especially last season when we backed the team brilliantly in adversity.

It was just one of those nights, we were so bad in such an important game and a few people got giddy and didn't shower themselves in glory. No need to over analyse it, just move on and forget.

 

[covcity4life]

Was terrible. No issues with booing and leaving early.

Lights was weird.

 

[Saddlebrains]

We left at half time

Chilling at home watching Suits by the hour mark. Am i ashamed? Not at all. Wet, Freezing, and a performance of amateurs.

We all invest enough money and time into the club, we should be able to do what we want when a display like that is put in. The players lap it up on socials and in the ground off a win, they can take it when they serve up that shit

 

[ccfc1234]

I accept the atmosphere can be occasionally criticised, however, in a match that our manager has described as the worst in years, I think it can be understood.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

He said it was worse than Stoke last year. I agree. On a par with Yeovil but at least even there Biamou scored a screamer

 

[Balli001]

I really hated the singing for Jake Bidwell before half time. Fair enough JDS was having a shocker, but that was awful.

People were still singing for hamer after he had left. Hardly think singing for someone actually here is a crime.

 

[Balli001]

Yeah, that was disgraceful. A section of our fans aren't the brightest.

It wasn't. What was,disgraceful was dasilvas performance

In 50 years of watching football I don’t ever recall seeing a free kick given for a foul kick off before - summed up the evening for me….

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Some tawt near me in Block 15 kept singing the words to 'Don't worry 'bout a thing' song (which I thought was really supportive of the crowd (Singers Corner) to 'cos Ben Wilson is f*cking shite (instead of everything's gonna be alright). Spent half the game booing and just generally spouting shite about individual players. We had lost one game all season at home until last night, but the way he (and others) vented p*ssed me off if I'm honest.

 

[Boicey]

It’s a little bit odd that people tear into a Wilson and jds on here but get annoyed when people do it in the crowd.
yeah ‘support the players during a match, blah’ but pays your money make your choice.
Its not a bad thing to tell Robins he obviously got it wrong and let those players know fans expect much better quality from them imo
Carrot and stick.

 

[Nick]

Biggest issue was the lights, what was that all about? Grown men doing it.

Can't expect people not to boo after that performance from players and manager.

Well, it’s not for me. Perhaps it’s the masochist in me that thinks I have to endure. One of my family footballing traditions I think.
However, each to their own and all that. I certainly can’t criticise (not that I would) as I wasn’t even there…I did not turn the telly off though!

I remember going to a Pompey game about 20+ years ago and this ‘jolly’ fella behind me trying to be funny, shouted to 4 blokes leaving early…”where are you going”!
It did not end well for him.

Wasn’t easy decision, like I said I’ve never done it before and during much worse too. But seeing Sakamoto get stretchered off, a simply terrible performance and the wife still being quite ill swayed it.

As it turns out I was right as MR also had given up at half time.
