Winding up Woodrow

I went in once. I'm uncertain whether the IQ average went up or down that day.

 

That tweet makes me sad. Nobody deserves that, especially not Cauley.

 

Fans have no right to shout abuse at any player.

I have been disgusted with some of the things ive seen at matches and posted on here.

We pay our money we can say what we want, no you can't.

If you abused someone in the street like has been done to players on the pitch you would be arrested or given a slap.

 

There was most probably a reason why we did so well last season and that was probably down to the absence of fans, the lack of pressure on the players I believe definitely helped us, especially given the age of our squad

 

This.
I always knew I’d find something to agree with you about if I hung around long enough

 

PLEASE don't criticise the players. I am convinced that they are giving 120% for the cause, but just lack direction and management leadership. These are mostly the same players who got out of an impossible jail the season before last (thank you Callum, Clarke and all the rest) and they are pretty much the ones who took us to unimagined heights under Val last season. Given the right training, direction and preparation, they WILL come good. We have seen how very good virtually all of them are and have the potential to become. I am utterly convinced that they are not to blame. They have not given up. They are not like some we have had over the years who were 'big names' supposedly picking up a wage for very little sweat. This squad is not like that at all. However, their body language is a worrying symptom. I recall Conor Hourihane standing in the players' tunnel at Wembley before the Millwall play-off final. He was totally focussed. It almost looked as though he had been hypnotised. I thought straight away - if the whole team has the same attitude, we will win this - and we did. These players look uncertain, confused, but trying as individuals to do their bit in every way possible. There is little doubt what the problem is. It needs sorting quickly and before it's too late and I hope that someone from the board is talking to the players honestly for them to be able to state how they feel about things. Better days will come and several of these players will deliver them for us and for their own careers as well.

 

There were 3 stewards stood in front of them doing absolutely nothing. It's not on

 

Exactly. Don't give me the **** about having spent 'hard earned wages' watching a football team lose. So has everyone else, you're a grown adult, conduct yourself properly.

 

Stop shouting abuse at Woodrow. It's unnecessary, unhelpful, and unpleasant.

Also, stop shouting "Shoot!" at him when he's 30 yards out. That's unhelpful too.

 

Woodrow actually challenged for, and won, a few headers today. He was completely ineffective because he's doing the work of a none existent midfield or taking corners instead of being around the edge of the box where he's deadly but he didn't lack effort today. Sure he doesn't put in as much effort as others in terms of getting stuck in (as opposed to effort covering grass) but today wasn't the day to criticise him for that because he did far more of it than he has previously.

The tossers who abused him when he took the time to go over and thank the fans are just that; tossers and should be identified by the club and sent letters informing them that such behaviour will not be tolerated. The ****** who ****** off down the tunnel leaving the players to take the flack should be sacked
