It's inevitable that fans will moan if the game doesn't go according to plan. To be fair, we've put up with miserable season after another and many of us still keep coming back for more so reading the same rally cry season after season does very little for me. I know what our part is in the game but the players also have to look at themselves and play their part. Saturday night could be wonderful, 4 points clear of the relegation zone and everyone else around us sucked in as well or it could be a nightmare. Very few fans will be going home in flash sports cars to multi-million pound houses, I know I certainly won't. My point is that the players should be professional enough to address the situation they are in, we can only do so much. If the players, play up then the crowd will react and hence forth, if the players are nervous then the crowd will react the same way. We have to have something to cheer about and it's the players responsibility to do that not ours. I'm just getting a bit tired of being told to keep my chin up when in fact we 'the fans' are the only constant in this club. The players/managers come and go whereas we feel the full effects of never achieving anything. I don't think anyone but the true fan can appreciate what they feels like. Sorry to be so negative, I'm still gutted about the Reading game, especially with Sunderland winning. I know a win on Saturday will make all the difference but as a fan I really couldn't do anymore at the ground and I resent being made to feel like winning games is linked to my unwillingness to cheer when players miss the target from 10 yards. I'll be there on Saturday as always after having driven 75 miles to get to the ground in my crappy car and then another 75 miles home on my own wondering why I do it. If we win, I'll know why, if we don't then it's a long, long road. :Blues: |

Of course the fans play their part for every team, but when you have the likes of Jaidi making calamitous errors like last Saturday it doesnt really matter how loud you shout does it. Try getting the players up and concentrating for 90 minutes might be a start. |

I don't iunderstand why fans go to game if they don't want to shout encouragement all the time. Smacks of having no bottle to moan. Even worse to boo. |

if we got behind the team like we did v watford in the play off and villa in the early days and our 1st season in the premiership v spurs and charlton and when dugarry ripped southampton apart we would have chelsea's home record ( i know we lost v watford but that's missing the point..we battered them for 75 mins with 10 men lost on pens and my ears were ringing all the next day and i couldn't speak i was so hoarse i was in the railway 2 blocks from 4000 watford fans and i didn't hear them though you could see they were singing by the arm movement clapping etc :-)) |
