Birmingham City supporters ‘have the right to be frustrated’ - Marc Roberts

Ouch. Seems he's gone against family with this interview and good on him.

But he also accepts the thousands who travel the length and breadth of the country have been shortchanged so far this term.

“They follow us through thick and thin, they spend their hard-earned money and they are allowed to have their views,” Roberts insisted.

“We understand as players at the club why they are frustrated and they have the right to be.

“They have paid their hard-earned money to watch and be entertained by us - and they are not being at the minute.

Give it a rest.

 

Don’t see a problem myself, he’s simply gave an opinion. Me and the wife regularly have a difference of opinions on a variety of subjects, and of course I’m always right.

 

Seriously, what did you expect him to say?

 

I'll start ..........shut up yer crazy foooking imbecile - i foooking hate you loads !!!
I would foooking kill you now if you were here !!!

Now then - what did you say about Marc Roberts ???

 

You really are something else. Why you feel it necessary to post this kind of drivel is completely beyond me. Don't get me wrong, you're entitled to your opinion but of late all I've seen is controversial threads being posted by you followed by the sound of silence when anyone challenges your view. At least have the decency to debate with people on this particular thread, I beg of you.

 

The last proper first team regular for either Chelsea or man city who has come through the academy....

 

I wouldn't waste your breath. He only went onto the City site to look for info to argue on Archey's thread. He couldn't find any so he posted that garbage instead but didn't stick around to discuss it.

 

For what it's worth and I know it's wasted on the OP - In the 10 league games Robbo has started for Brum they have conceded 12 goals. In the 6 he hasn't they've conceded 13.

This and the fact that in his 10 games they've scored the princely sum of 4 goals for and just 8 all season in 16 suggests to me that their main problems lie elsewhere in their team.

Now can we get back to our own team? I must say, I thought our ex-Braintree Town right-back had a cracker of a game last Saturday, didn't you lot?

 

I wouldn't say he's gone against his family.

He's just doing what every spokesman for every single club does, which is to make noises that keep the fans onside.

He'll still be at his mams for Xmas dinner.

 

Man City have just signed a 10 million deal with amazon prime for a behind the scenes series on their season.
Whitey, yer rubbish.

 

From what I've seen he's performed poorly this season. He was rated a 3 from the link I put on here in the other thread and the lowest rated defender. He was worse than that against Burton in a performance that he must have given the Birmingham fans, coaches and management sleepless nights. I've not seen a massive amount of Birmingham but he was dropped after the game in Derbyshire. be interesting to see what the Birmingham team is in a week or so time.

but this post wasn't about performance it was about respect for the fans from the player. I fully respect him. He's in a position where he's got to build bridges quickly now because from what i've seen they Birmingham fans aren't happy at all with the comments and rightfully so. Like he says, the fans can have an opinion and its for the PLAYERS to turn it around no matter whats been said form the stands. The comment about own goals and things like that suggests jumping off the ship before it sinks. Birmingham city fans can at least expect there players to fight it out to at least get to dry land

 

He does not play for us.
You didn't like the former Halifax Town man when did play for us.
You now don't like the former Barnsley stopper now he plays for someone else.

 

A question for H-T...

But carry on...

 

In the interests of balance. Lots of tweets praising him the week prior to our game against them.
