We were positive and noisy at the start. Got a bit negative as the first half progressed. Pretty fair given what was happening. Second half we were backing the team again. The noise around our goal was superb. Plenty of (rather generous imv) applause at the end. Support was excellent today. Clearly a lot of ‘neutrals’ squeezed into the away end. We were up for it. The players weren’t.The only singing we heard was from our supporters, annoys me so much when we get accused of being toxic and that we don't get behind the team. This lazy bunch don't deserve us.
I was watching from home and I could hear our fans outsinging the home crowd (which is by no means uncommon for our away games).We were positive and noisy at the start.

I was just thinking about that. What a coincidence to read this at the same time.Porro having a good laugh about his shot going 20 yards over the bar

100% then we let Vic kick the ball or take free kicks. Have they not watched kick the ball to no one all season to know to let him do it!we're so bad playing it out from the back, yet we insist on doing it
That’s what I said. This guy is over complicating and being a stuck in the mud with his back 5.Early still .. but the feeling it should've been "Harry Redknap" is getting bigger and bigger..
We did not need a system or style. Just a good old fellow to pump some confidence in these shirts.
What annoys me is that this group of players put us through so much stress and depression and don’t deserve our support. If they ran themselves into the ground and actually looked like they were trying and cared then it wouldn’t be as bad but they give us nothing.
Yep, and the rare times they do show anything like that the fans are loud, appreciative and get right behind them.What annoys me is that this group of players put us through so much stress and depression and don’t deserve our support.

It was actually an improvement- which is somehow just as depressingAnd then we subbed on Danso when we needed a goal so he could throw it longer.
Agree exactly what role has he given Solanke
Players dont deserve these fans at the moment, especially those who travel across the country.It only takes a tiny bit of effort from the players to get the fans fired up and behind them. Today showed that. Our support is frankly far more positive and resilient than I can comprehend at times.
Tbh not his biggest fan but I thought he was much better than any of our other attackers. Actually held on to the ball well.
Don’t they have lots of balls now. Does my head when they waste time doing that thing. Just let the defender hold the ball and Lino gives ref another ball.Why fight over the ball you fucking idiot. It’s their kick off so what’s the fucking point
And to think cunts like Porro think fans are the reason they struggle to play at home. No you struggle to play at home because you are shit and the fans have had enough of your distinct lack of effort and poor performances week in week out.It only takes a tiny bit of effort from the players to get the fans fired up and behind them. Today showed that. Our support is frankly far more positive and resilient than I can comprehend at times.
