MATCHWATCH : Barnsley (a) sponsored by no one at all

[leon]

Well I hope he's bored some of the constant moaners away or I'm likely to end up with a stadium ban! Absolutely sick and tired of pathetic twats, who would probably fall over if they tried to kick a ball, constantly abusing the team and, worse still, individual players, from the moment the lineups are announced.

like I say... you crack on mate

And, like I say, if you are one of those moaners, you stay away and spare yourself the misery and boredom mate,

I think RoyalBlue will only be happy when doesn’t have to share the stadium with anyone else and can wnak himself stupid over 90% possession and a -100 goal difference.

[Longhorn1970]

Was pretty clear watching Preston last night how much they ‘wanted it’. They’ve spent next to nothing as we did last year, their football is horrible but they knew their roles and got the job done. It’s a bit contrast to us at the moment

Something isn’t right this year. We would have seen out the game today las t season without a doubt

The inability to not concede is absolutely killing us. We were awful vs Burton but defend properly and you win 1-0. Brizzle the type of game where you dig In and hold out for a 0-0. Today 1-0 with 4 mins to go....

It’s just basic basic stuff

It is, then to walk down the tunnel and ignore your travelling support is inexcusable

Why don't you just top yourself? Life clearly is no longer worth living. F*ck knows how you manic depressives would cope if you 'supported' a club that really was struggling.

Did you go to Bristol? Were we really that bad then? No we damn well weren't. And we certainly won't end up with that sort of goal difference. As has already been pointed out, unlike last season we are not taking regular hammerings.

Looking forward to Tuesday when the manic depressives and constant moaners resume their boycott and the rest of us are treated to another good mid-week evening performance. Doubtless, things will be very quiet on here then.

You’re insane.

[Hound]

Think the possession % is actually a little overdone tbh. We’ve not really dominated the stats except vs Burton (who didn’t want the ball as they had no idea what to do with it) for weeks now

I think Stam has purposefully tried to go a bit more direct and we’re still conceding abysmal goals and dropping points

[10539.4 Miles Away]

BBC Radio Berkshire caller who was at the game went down the front to applaud the team and try for a shirt and the players and manager just walked off. Didn't even applaud the 200 that made the journey. Most managers I've seen always insist that the away fans get thanked after....especially after that trip.

That's poor shows utter contempt, perhaps the rot has set in ?

Well I can say thats categorically not true. The players looked a little shell shocked at the final whistle and milled around for a while then as they walked off they all gave the fans a clap, although some of it was a bit half arsed some of it was actually appreciative, Gunter in particular made a show of giving us a proper thank you.

No idea what agenda the caller was peddling, tbf, I didn't notice Stam leaving or applauding but that doesn't mean he didn't

And there were 424 of us.

Emotional v reason …. Have a lay down RoyalBlue... or watch some elm park videos to ease your pain.

i do like you leon

[Denver Royal]

Stam going won't change much. There'll just be a period of moaning about how long we take to appoint a siccessor. Then about who the successor is. Then about how they haven't magically turned everything around. Then about how they haven't immediately sugned lots of really expensive players who are out of our reach. Then how we haven't signed anyone on deadline day. Then on how we aren't winning the league in October, then how the new guy isn't good enough and has to go in November.

Indeed, and then how, even if we get promoted, the PL is full of plastic fans/teams/managers/stadiums/refs, and how whichever manager got us promoted should be sacked by Xmas, and how the season tix prices at MadStad are too high, and how away game tix prices are too high as well, and how we aren't really a PL club anyway 'so just accept it and deal with it', and how we are better off in the Champ anyway cos it's more enjoyable there.

[double d]

Jeez I thought I was bad. Some of these team board mongs are unbearable.

Ah didn’t realise you had contacts inside the dressing room. In that case, fair enough

And if we lose to the worst side in the league on Tuesday in front of 10,000 fans, will you still be sucking up to our inept, stubborn manager.
By the way I shall be at the game and giving it both barrels unless things drastically improve.

I like the majority it seems have had enough.

Been there done that sunshine. Had enough of trudging along to games and watching dull uninspiring football.
If you find it exciting, you must live a dull existence.

So don't go.

You could not turn up, have a far better time than if you were there and not have any sort of negative affect on the performance. Whilst registering your dissatisfaction in the most effective way of influencing those in charge. If you don't have a ST you'll be reducing revenue by not turning up. If you do have a ST, you'll be demonstrating you won't renew unless something changes. Those are the things that will influence those in charge. Not paying and rocking up, showing you'll pay regardless, and jeering the team.

Also, if you don't go when you would otherwise go and boo and jeer, you'll actually give your fellow fans who aren't as pissed off as you a better game to watch by your absence.

Once you've bought your season ticket you might as well turn up though, surely?!

Unless you have money to burn?

That's a sunk cost fallacy. The money is gone whether you go or not, so why also sink 2 hours + of miserableness and disappointment on top if you know you won't enjoy it.

Hardly good for one's mental health.

Also, bear in mind that whilst we publish ticket sales not attendance, the turnstiles record how many turn up. And the club surely aren't so incompetent as to ignore trends in that data and fail to use it to forecast future ticket sales.

If 4000 STHs stop turning up, it's a pretty good bet they won't be renewing.

Well I hope you enjoyed that?

Did you stay till the end and applaud the team off?

For your info I left with five minutes to go, soaked to the skin, cold and totally bemused at the shambles on the pitch.

As I previously said if you enjoy watching that shite, you have issues!
