Canary till I die! 0 Posted August 17, 2009 I realise all the chat at the mo is about who the newmanager will be but I just decided to point out what a negative affect some ofour fans are having on our team. I think they need to look up what the wordsupporter means. I don’t mind people using this forum to express their viewsbut to boo players during a match especially from an early point in the game isone of the stupidest things a fan can do. Since when does booing make peoplefeel or perform better compared to the massive buzz and boost of thousands offans cheering you on? Players realise when they’re playing bad or if they’vemade a mistake, none of them think its going well if your 2 down inside thefirst 15mins, but as fans we can give them a real lift by showing we stillbelieve in them. By getting on peoples backs, booing them, or ironic cheersyour just going to make it harder for them, even more crazy is booing playersas they are subbed on, before they’ve even touched a ball. Who on earth thinksbooing your own team will do anything to improve the performance, its likepetulant children throwing their toys out of a pram. Yes we have a huge fanbase, great stadium and fantastic training facilities; yes we should be doing ahell of a lot better than League 1. But it’s a solid set of fans, fullysupporting and cheering on their team and ALL of the players that will be a keypart of making our way back up the leagues, it’s a belief in players abilityand fans who lift their spirits that will help. If some of our fans carry onthey way they have been expect to see us continuing to sink, whomever weappoint. We need faith and SUPPORT to help our team, start encouraging andgetting behind the boys! I don’t care if we’re 0-5 down at half time, thatdoesn’t suddenly change how human behaviour and psychology works. 20, 000 fansstanding up at the start of the second half and singing WE’RE GONA WIN 6-5WE’RE GONA WIN 6-5 is gona up their performances and get them believing inthemselves a hell of a lot more than booing and jeering our keeper. So if uwana come to the game to get on our players backs and boo as soon as things gettough, don’t bother stay at home and shout at your radio, we need a stadium ofbelievers and SUPPORTERS to get us up and out of league 1.

Excited Canary 18 Posted August 17, 2009 Agreed, apart from 5-0 at half time we had a full right to vent our frustrations and boo.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scooby 0 Posted August 18, 2009 Nicely put, yes. But definitely the wrong place to share such sentiments. There is a very large percentage of posters on here who are far more interested in boardroom wranglings, club politics and their own over inflated ego''s to have the slightest interest in the supporting the team and their performance on the pitch. In fact most of them haven''t seen the team on the pitch in a very longtime. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary till I die! 0 Posted August 18, 2009 Im glad people agree, just to point out about the 5-0, dont get me wrong i was very upset at half time and we''d played very poor, and im not saying we cheer them off the pitch at the end of the half. My point is just that clearly they know how poor they''ve been and how they''ve let us down, so coming back out to a rousing reception with 20,000+ fans who seem to believe u can turn it round is a far greater motivator than booing them back out.

Canary till I die! 0 Posted August 18, 2009 Now we have our new manager its more important than ever that we get behind them and stay behind them 100% during the games, give him some time and so him what fantastic fans we can be, not ones that turn against our team when they need us most!
