Everyone is aware of the dangers of smoking, mate. However, if we'd lost yesterday, then the recriminations directed towards the manager & players would've over ridden the smoking in the toilets issue. Calls for the manager's head would've been loud and long, demands for certain players to be dropped would've been plentiful and the smoking issue wouldn't have been broached.
As I've said elsewhere on the thread, had we lost, the smoking issue wouldn't have been brought up. Everything would've been about the removal of the manager and certain players. As proof, you just need to read the threads after our recent defeats. Just for the record, I don't smoke, have never smoked and think it's a disgusting habit.
In terms of actual reports I think ive read two but with any posts at all ive seen a few. The thing is they dont really seem to say much. Not that we were excellent or poor. Just that we won really. Its hard to go round making posts about it based on that. The only performance relatedcomments ive really seen are that ramage fitted in well, bree looked good again and our #9 is bobby reincarnated
I must have imagined the posts (for example) about us playing crap from the first minute, Brown being a liability, Wilson forever changing the team line up because he doesn't know his best side and no one putting in a tackle before their winger scoring in the last minute.
No problem with anyone who smokes Whitey and its not a judgement on you or anyone else who smokes. Everyone has a right to smoke if they so wish, lots of my friends do, the problem is when they smoke where it is clearly not allowed. Certain employers provide a shelter to where people can smoke for their employees. Perhaps something of a similar nature could be provided by Football Clubs.
Nope, I accept I'm wrong about criticism levelled at any of our players, manager, or style of our performance and everyone has been as full of praise for our victory as there'd have been criticism had we lost. I appear to have a vivid imagination, imagined the criticism and the number of posts enjoying our victory.
Calm yourself down BigLil. We all know there's normally a lot of posts critising Danny and the players after a loss, there's also a lot of other random posts too similar to the smoking one (e.g. my ball boy one last week). To say there isn't is definitely misremembering.
Ah yer miserable old bugger moaning at fans moaning at non existent moaners that errrr I've lost me thread now, ahh that's it Ronnie Glavin did I mention that.........
I thought a hissy fit from me was long overdue and I demand to be reinstated to my title of board Drama Queen!
