Don't waste your mind on mindless drivel mate. Some people are best left on their own planet where they can vote for what they say and thereafter say, "The majority have decided".
Note how not once tonight he has placed any blame whatsoever on Levy or ENIC
 
It’s getting harder to follow. Like other fans I went to wolves away. I would have gone to Burnley the other day, but couldn’t make it. I’m scheduled to go to Everton next week. I messaged my mates after today and said I don’t really fancy going anymore. But who’s going to take my ticket now? We’ve decided to go to away games just for the day out rather than the football.

I probably have the second most expensive ticket in the ground. Today a lad in front of me left after 61 minutes. The guys sitting to the right of me were from Denmark, bought merchandise from the club shop, had a laugh at Ben Davies and left.

Against Villa the guy sitting behind me flew in from Helsinki, Finland. We’re got chatting after the game. He said he paid £72 for the ticket, £150 for a PCR test and then flights, hotel and food on top of that. He does this about 3 or 4 times. So the point is at the moment because we are still coming back from covid and crowds have been missing there are still enough tourists to get by. These aren’t your tourists who turn up just to see a football match. They genuinely love the club - you wouldn’t spend that kind of money if you did. But for the local fans like me who live a 30 min trip around the north circular, me not turning up to a game doesn’t really do anything. I’ll be at the vitesse game and that will be a better representation of the fans that go who literally go no matter what. If we were in league 2 those fans that turn up on Thursday would also turn up in league 2.

I’m going to complain because I have a right to as a paying customer. But I know full well that my complaints are futile because I’m part of the problem because levy sees £ signs.

All this leads me on to this. The fans that attend matches are different to the keyboard warriors on forums like this. The fans that attend have a higher tolerance threshold. However today I heard boos that were deafening. I have never heard boos like that from the normal match going faithful at spurs since George Graham days. Secondly I have never heard our fans actively sing for the manager and Levy to be sacked. That was easily the most toxic atmosphere I can remember at WHL. I’ve been a season ticket holder for 85% of my life. Today was more toxic than the Alan Sugar days.

There were fans today that could have left much earlier but they stayed just to boo at the end. I never boo, but I joined in today. That doesn’t make me less of a fan. In fact I was proud that fans booed, it showed passion and care for the club.

When the normal match going fans have turned then you know you’re in the shit.

A famous man once said: There used to be a football club over there.

Today I left the ground thinking of that quote!
Good post. I can't remember ever booing my own team; I did today as well.
 
Just imagine all of this could have been avoided if Levy had just put his hand in his pocket and splashed a bit of cash to keep Pochs squad competitive.

Instead he sacked the fucker and brought 2 new headcoaches, a DoF and a bunch of rag tag no mark players in the space of 24 months.

Talk about getting fucking humbled. Humiliating for him. He’ll fuck up even more now that hes gunna want to prove hes still the big genius businessman

Result was horrendous.

Romero was awful. At fault for the 2nd and 3rd goals. I think I prefer Sanchez with the amount of mistakes that Romero is making game after game.

But overall I thought the performance of the team was ok. We had at least as many chances as United. Possession was good. Just some shit defensive errors. And neither Kane nor Son able to hit the target.

Also, we had so many corners and did nothing with it. I don’t remember our last set piece goal.
 

Nuno had moutinho someone we should have bought years ago. Skipp isn't matured enough, we don't need him to do be doing same role as Hojberg

You got wingers who hogs the line like trincao and podence. Our players are playing crowding the middle and it's getting predictable.

This idea was brought by pochettino, you can't change it overnight.

Same way some numbskull thinks he's inexperienced, the players doing the same to him. Sissoko leaving had quite some impact in the dressing room

What an awful take. Absolutely dreadful. Romero is the only one that makes tackles or can pass the ball forwards in the back 4.

On Cavani goal he completely lost Cavani who went through on goal his side.

On Rashford goal he was standing at RB near touchline and Rashford went through where he should have been.

He has a good pass but his fuckups defensively are costing us.
 
Woke up with a big smile on my face; dreamt about my woeful ex. At least it was better than dreaming about Spurs.

We are a truly directionless side atm. And it has really spilled onto the players, bar a few, they seem to have given up, that’s a fucking scary sign. I like weird beard as a person, seems like a good egg, but get him out ASAP. Even a caretaker would give some much needed energy into this lot.
 
ENIC need to leave but who will pay 2 billion for this club?

Please god

We didn’t register a single shot on target you wind up merchant prick!!! What the hell are you on about ? I swear your main purpose on here is just winding up posters. Either that, or you actually believe the tripe you post, which is extremely alarming.
 
I was defending those who booed to my brother-in-law and niece earlier, with the argument that people who pay "£1000+" deserve a whole lot better.

Is it actually £1200 for a lot of folks now? Where does that get you?

I'm in awe of people who commit that sort of money to our club, year in, year out, I couldn't on my budget. Not to mention the trips away (Mrs P and others like her getting home at 5 in the morning), the holiday time taken off to follow us abroad and so on.

It's utterly shameful how you're all treated.

This is my first year as a ST holder having been a OH+ for a few years. I'm North Stand, middle tier and it's a pretty good view. Which would be great if we weren't so toss, so I get a good view of that.

There are £999 options but they were all out when I chose, so my choice was this or don't have one. There were seats for £1500-£2000+ too.

That bald wanker already has our money.
 
Stayed till the bitter end and feck me was it bitter.

It has all been said in the thread, but things like Hojberg standing on front of us in the South Stand, trying to gee us up sometime in the 2nd half.. he got abuse back... "gee your feckin selves up! ". People say about the crowd picking the team up, but it works both ways,, the crowd need to see commitment.

Just watched some of the game back, after the substitution and boos, the "you don't know what your doing" didn't come out very clear, but was there.. Other Levy and ENIC out chats form the South Stand, didn't really get going, but that was really as toxic as I can remember for a very long time.

Trains were shite as well, due to WHL station cancellations.. Footballing Gods really do hate us....

Then to top it all off, both me and my Lad have been ill last night, looks like we had some dodgy chicken from the Stadium... just sums it all up !!

I started that off. Most of the ENIC lemmings in the south stand around me just doing nothing all game. No supporting the team or criticising the club.
 
You were right about Potter.

But Howe's team never looked convincing. They had some decent players- Wilson, King etc. but their strategy always seemed haphazard.

He is a major upgrade on Nuno, he can coach attacking football. Far from ideal but that is where we are. This club should have thrown the kitchen sink to get Potter in the summer. Clueless fucks!

That Hojbjerg moment really wound me up. I’m at the other end of the South Stand and was shouting at him to get onto the players. He should have been bellowing at them. Someone needs to get in H’s face and make him uncomfortable. That would set an example. Like when Hugo - harshly but with good intentions - got at Sonny. If we see passion and fight there’ll be an immediate positive reaction. Like City at home. Trash like yesterday deserves silence at best.
