I can't work out if that's a wind up post or you are a complete idiot.
Correct, however Kilbane shouldn't have been given it in the first place, fact is his legs have all but gone and he offers nothing going forward. He is at best a utility player
tbf to him he came to to this club to try and help us and if fans are getting on his back for making a few mistakes they can f*** off
I expect that they would be banned from the workplace though, do you think this is what should happen to those abusing players? There must be some sort of law that gives you the right to work without being abused.
Usual, double standards amongst football fans though.
Is this a serious thread ?
We have some of the worst fans of any club in the country who seem to only turn up to games to boo and abuse players.
Now some are getting all precious because they got abuse back ? Perhaps the fan in question should have put his hand up and told the ref .....
Pathetic
If you work in the service industry then its not acceptable to swear at your customers.
Where has this nonsense about service industry and customers come from ??If you work in the service industry then its not acceptable to swear at your customers.

Actions like that should not be tolerated in the present day. I think this is unacceptable and, and as a devout Coventry fan, I am insulted.

It is sport and he had a few words with a fan
Are you taking the piss ? He is paid to kick a ball around a park ,not to take abuse of a bunch of morons in the standSport is part of the service indusrty. We pay for the entertainment in watching them play, therefore they are providing a service.
Anyone one here who has had to work in a customer facing role will tell you if someone is abusive to you just walk away and report it.
If you are abusive back then you are likely to get into trouble with your employer.

I was sat directly inline with kilbane when he swore several times at our fans! Prior to his out burst he played the ball out of play under no pressure! He was openly booed for that butthe swearing came from kilbane first and the response of bAd language followed from the fans!
The performance was abysmal and we travelled 70 miles and paid £40 and I feel I deserve to voice my opinion without been swore at! I shell out hundreds on my team a season and my money contributes to his wage! He has acted totally unprofessionally as club captain! Other players around him were also getting abuse during the game including hussey and sheffers but they didn't respond.
He is an experienced player and I think he should have been able to walk away with out responding!
as stated he was sticking up for his team.

He can come out publically and support his team mates without swearing during the game!
speaking hypothetically here but if you had friends which you might not then you would probably stick up for them when there getting abused
Kilbane is completely laughable, he's had 1 good half this season vs Blues and has done nothing else. He doesn't track back, he doesn't tackle, he can't pass without hitting it long. I honestly don't know what he brings to this team, we have a strange habit of appointing god awful captains and he's the latest in a long line. Someone earlier in the thread mentioned Dublin giving the 'shh' sign to the City fans after scoring, that wouldn't bother me at all. If he had turned round after telling people to fuck off and scored I would have said well done you proved us wrong. None of us want him to fail, we want to do well but he's been god awful. Ironically the other thing he did all game was run towards their goal after the altercation and win a corner. I wonder if these people asking if players should get abused were giving Marlon any abuse on Tuesday, if any were there at all.
He's our joint leading scorer. He also made another on Tuesday and played 120mins. He's an experienced pro and brings a lot to the team.
It seems like he lost it when some bellends were slating Jordan Clarke who wasn't fully fit. I say fair play to the bloke.
If it was in my work place where my reputation in my high profile job was under scrutiny I think I would reserve the abuse and let my mates stick up for themselves!
i'm also on kilbane's sideAm I the only person on kilbane's side?
our fans were more of a hindrance than a help second half getting in the players backs today. Yes it was poor hussey especially so hoofing it foward but I don't blame kilbane for having a pop back as he was getting serious abuse.
He actually goes up in my estimation at least he was trying out there. he had a good run and shots just after it to. We need more men on the pitch, not players who are scared to say boo, let alone get on the ball or try and help a team mate out.
Where was Barton 2nd half? Jennings was shocking baker back to his usual self.
