Yellowhammer 95 Posted February 14 Good after match interview , was right to condemn booing of subs , not good for their morale when they came on . At least should have waited until the end to form an opinion. Apologies for starting another thread but life’s too short too read through 7 -8 pages of comments 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JonnyJonnyRowe 898 Posted February 14 The boo boys ended up looking a bit silly. However... it was clear to all, including surely Wagner, that the fans weren't booing the players, but the tactical decision. They were booing Wagner. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Satriales 941 Posted February 14 Sara did an interview and didn't seem happy with the crowd, said we need to stick together. Bit stupid if the boos are pi$$ing off the players, ruining their morale. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grumpy 145 Posted February 14 Thats the second time this week the crowd have got on Wagners back for his substitutions and when he explains the reasons and thinking behind it they are made to look a bit stupid,but do they learn.Do they hell. How ironic that the two players coming on set up one and scored the decider to ensure three points and the chance to push on and hopefully end the season on a high in what was looking to be a disappointment the way things were going. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darth Vadis 167 Posted February 14 I keep reading that "we won in spite of those subs" - what a load of ****. Bringing Nunez on and pushing Sara further up with Barnes directly led to goal 3, with the other sub Fassnacht scoring the 4th. The substitutions absolutely made sense to me when watching, as we were being overrun in midfield - Nunez changed that. If it wasn't for an absolute belter of a goal for Watford's second then it would've been 4-1. Entitled and absurd 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Addick/Canary 137 Posted February 14 No problems with Wagner's substitutions personally. For what it's worth, I was more concerned with the Watford one - Asprilla! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nexus_Canary 1,183 Posted February 14 I bet the players are crying into their golf clubs today. Climbing into their porches and landrovers must have been almost impossible this morning as a section of fans had dared to boo. I have full sympathy for them and Thier bank accounts. Maybe they should leave pro football and become bankers or something so they don't get heckled? I have almost as much sympathy and respect for them as I do all the self righteous idiots complaining about it. Boo (Fcuking hoo) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rock bus 1,046 Posted February 14 It's clear that both Wagner and the players were quite rightly hacked off with the fans reaction. Short term this may be a good thing, the team are clearly fighting for Wagner and developing a siege mentality or us against the world approach could help to continue our push for the play offs. BUT longer term the club hierarchy really need to address the tensions and gulf between the fans and the club...Wagner is quite right that we need to be pulling together. I actually find it quite sad how bad things have become since the point with Farke (and initially Webber) that it really felt like we all loved the club and were united in the vision for the future of the club Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hogesar 10,536 Posted February 14 The fact the Manager AND players are having to build and develop a siege mentality against their own supposed fans tells you all about where the problems at this club lay. It was all Webber's fault for the disconnect and if we just got rid of him it would solve everything. Oh wait, he went and people still want to drag the club down so they claim Stuart is still running things from a mountain or whatever. Then Knapper talks and now the disconnect is because well, we don't like some of the subs even if we win a game, we don't like the manager even though with a fit squad he has us exactly where we should be, the grass on the pitch is a little shorter than usual so that's another boo. I don't think the club itself can do anything. MA can takeover sooner but if he still likes Wagner then he'll be the next one that gets the boo. IF he sacks him and we do worse, then the new manager and MA will get a boo along with Knapper. There's a set of fans who are determined to be miserable and counter-productive to helping the team. There's nothing we can do about it unfortunately. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tea total 83 Posted February 14 We were all wondering why Onel came off as he was a big attacking threat. Instead of booing why not clap Onel in respect of his good performance then wait for DW's reasoning. A lot on here are looking to get on DW's back every chance they get. Form an opinion once you have the full facts. We'll never know what goes on behind closed doors so the full facts are known to a select few. Onel happened to be injured!!! Good decision in the end! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If not, I fear the split will grow between the two sets of fans. We do need to have constructive ideas to improve things, I won't hold by breathe given the quotes from one of our owners.
