HarryBosch Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 What the fuck is wrong with some of you? I'd rather Boro sign 2 new vastly experienced keepers and MY Oldham Athletic sign him back permanently to play week in, week out in a promotion chasing side... All this "he deserves to play at higher level" shite....... FFS.... Has Corney finally dragged you all down to his "we're a League 2 club punching above our weight" bollocks...? We're a Championship club punching BELOW our weight to me.... Sign the lad up and let's have a proper go next season... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owdumer Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Been an emotional day Harry? A bit OTT but you make some valid points,I've also noticed this tendency towards a "we know our place" attitude. As you say, the drip drip drip of being told to accept we can't afford to aspire to something better does erode belief over time. "Tug your forelock and accept the perceived wisdom of your benefactors? Hopefully a sea change is beginning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering we're going into our 21st (is that right) season in League One, I think we've found our level - that coming from someone who has never seen anything other than League One, however. I'd fucking love it if we signed him though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OL9erlatic Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 A large percentage of the away following I'm sorry to say are moronic and embarrassing and very cringe worthy and these are 30 year old + blokes, we may travel punching way above our weight in percentage to home fans, but a fair few games this season I have cringed through a large percentage of the game and been thoroughly pissed off with the crap drumming and shit generic songs some of the fans sing, I left at the 40 minute mark today because I couldn't be arsed with it and was embarrassed to be frank, and before anyone calls me an old boring cunt I'm 28. Lastly Peter Clarke should win/have won player of the year by a landslide, as good as Ripley has been, which is outstanding, Clarke has been phenomenal....rant over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not going to all get on but to leave after 40 mins is poor and to blame it on a drum and boring songs is rather embarrassing if that was today's 'issue'.

There were plenty of empty seats in our section behind the goal unoccupied or are you just a sad attention seeker who thinks he's too cool for football, if your embarrassed by your own team I think it's time for you to find something better to do with your Saturday afternoons, I've had a look on Twitter and the general consensus seems to be that we've been the best fans at AFC Wimbledon all season, that's the view of their fans so I'm not sure why you feel the need to have the hissy fit.

I have been to lots of away games which the home fans have said that we have superb away support which gets behind the team even when losing.Clarke and Shez and the players have also said so.That goal at Chesterfield was almost sucked into the net.

Lags Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 (edited) If anyone thinks Latics chants are more cringey than other sides is in for one major shock should they be minded to change allegiance through it. Far from me to tell the poster to get a grip and think differently because it's his opinion, what I can say is I am amazed you felt the need to leave. Was you on your own? On topic well done Ripley and yesterday proved how much he needed Clarke to achieve it. Edited May 1, 2017 by Lags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafcprozac Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 (edited) Taken it the wrong way peanuts of course clean sheets are a start but let's score enough goals to not be so reliant on them. Best form of defence is attack and all that a manky 1-0 is nice from time to time but 2-2, 3-3 gives the same amount of points as 0-0. 42 home goals... 2-3 5-3 3-0 3-2 1-1 1-2 0-0 1-2 3-2 4-1 2-1 2-1 2-2 1-2 1-2 1-2 3-0 0-2 2-2 1-0 1-1 1-2 2-1 not our greatest season in fact we stayed up on the last day yet we scored more than double the home goals we scored this season. 2004:05 under Talbot...

Especially when we seem to be the envy of most other teams fans in this division. It's hardly like there would be no 'backing from the terraces' if the lad with the drum wasn't there. We really have got cracking away support but it'd be good if we could get rid of the drum and try to make some original chants too. Hopefully the summer will bring that...
