Wheels off at Halifax.  Chesterfield still dog shit. 
 

Doyle scores again... but he was never our player was he. 

not there’s either of course.  Bradford would be crazy not to recall him next week even if he never plays for them

Don't know if this has been mentioned elsewhere but I see Kevin Betsy (remember him) is now England U17s coach.

One of the best debuts I can remember

Baxter just scored for Plymouth. Jules (SSN) just said nobody has ever doubted the ability of Baxter - clearly not been in this forum. 

It’s a travesty that we’ve (PS aside) not tried to build our team around him. 

 

Love you Jose  

I think Shuck has hacked your account

Although the post carries quite a lot of accuracy, there are certain points included within the post that are quite clearly untrue.

 

I was supportive up until seeing the pathetic display of defending for their 2^nd goal. That was the straw that broke the camel’s back for me. I then turned my anger and frustrations straight to board level. Towards Abdallah, Mo and Barry Owen. Throughout the second half, I joined in and started on occasion the songs against the board. Never did I or many more like myself turn on the players.

 

Towards the end, I headed down to the front of the stand to vent my anger at the final whistle. That was definitely not aimed towards the players but purely straight up to the board level.

 

The players, to be fair to them, stuck their necks out and faced the angered following away support. Azankpo came over and was in tears. It probably shocked him to see the crowds feelings towards the whole situation but he was reassured by supporters that fans do not blame the players for the current situation.

 

My friends and I then called Jamie Stott over who we spoke to for about 90 seconds or so. My words to him were “All of this anger, frustration and emotion is not towards you and not towards the majority of the players. The problem is up there (pointing to the directors box). He nodded in acceptance whilst looking heartbroken. I’m sure he was, he’s been at the club for 11 years I believe. He probably can’t quite believe it either”. Stott then  went off clearly emotional and in tears to which he was consoled by a member of staff. This is where a problem then started.

 

That club member pulled a couple of players away, before doing the wanker sign in the direction to myself and my friends. I have known this particular staff member for quite a few years so I was extremely pissed off as you can imagine.

 

It ended up getting worse with a couple of scuffles breaking out, nothing to do with me and in my opinion really not needed or required. Following leaving the stadium, we headed up the hill towards where the offices were as we wanted to voice our furstrations once more towards the board. Said club staff members partner then came out and shouted towards the support (about 20/30 people in total) that he will “see fans in the pub later and sort it out man to man”. I appreciate he was frustrated and angry too but not the best way of going about it. We were then moved on by police, in hindsight, probably the best for the situation before we headed back to the Bradford Arms for a debrief on the game.

 

Some tears were shed, heated discussions within our friends group and then a “what do we do from here” chat which still doesn’t seem very clear.

 

The actions of the club staff involved was poor. I sent the following message to this said individual on facebook not too long after the incident:

 

“Don’’t ever call me a wanker again for standing up for the club I support. Abdallah, as I’m sure you very well know is ruining the club yet you call supporters wankers. I appreciate Jamie Stott was upset and again not his fault as was reiterated throughout our furstrations. I don’t blame the players, firmly lies at board level so if you think I’m wrong then fine but we have 43 games to save this club going into non league so we need to speak up now before we leave it too late”

 

I then got a response of: “I didn’t call you because of Abdallah, I feel for the players that everyone was abusing”

 

Fair enough response however, certainly the people who were talking to the players at the front, there was no abuse towards them whatsoever.

 

Our club is in a mess!

Customers piss me off every single day - if I even suggested one was a wanker when engaging with them I’d be sacked. Be interesting to see if the club acknowledges this action in the statement that no doubt will come at some point this week

I thought it was an absolutely ridiculous reaction personally, vent your anger all you want at the owner. But them players didn't lack effort yesterday, first half we were the better team by a mile and actually played some decent stuff. Was a joke that, and I’m probably in the minority which I find baffling. Also if a players trying his best, but he’s simply just not good enough, that’s abdallahs fault, not the players.

No doubt the players put more effort in yesterday than they did Saturday

Your referring to Sue Howard - I think, apparently her other half was at it as well (Dean Pickering) shame really as they shouldn't be getting involved.

Beat me to it - yes, who I thought

Oh no the apologist is back, look you can't polish a turd and even the ones who show glimpses cant put a decent half hour together never mind a full game, it's a team full of weak characters without a plan or an obvious leader, honestly don't see us winning many games never mind competing, Crewe and Bradford could of had six each and that's without us really having a go going forward, all the quality and leaders from last season Iverson, Lang, Clarke, Eddy, Surridge and Lyden to a degree had been replaced by absolute dross, subservient yes men who are Abdallah and Mo's puppets add the manager into that and it's a recipe for disaster. 

 

As for the antics at full time it was inevitable I called it on here last week when I said it's likely to get toxic and guess what it wont get any better going forward with the shitshow that exists.

Speaking of apologists - where’s Boundary Blue this weekend?

I notice the gallery from yesterday is on the OS but they’re yet to put it on twitter (anything usually appears there first) - avoiding the vitriol perhaps?

I for one want Marco out because he’s a c*nt, not because hes Morrocon, just as I don’t like his players, not because they’re #frenchlads but because they are shit! They could hail from fucking Neptune if they could play football but they can’t

Now, this is going to be a little controversial but..... I think we as fans are a little cowardly at the moment.

 

Of course our annoyance/frustration/anger should be vented at the regime but it's as though we are afraid to do so. I do wonder whether that old chestnut of "race" is playing its part i.e. some are afraid to show their displeasure because, very quickly thereafter, someone will play the race card, the police will get heavy handed and arrests will end up being made.

 

You can spot the apologists on here, for example, a mile off. Our position has absolutely nothing to do with the racial profile of our owner and, provided protests are orchestrated properly, there should not be an issue. I am just awaiting for it to rear its head though.

 

"They only want AL out because........" 

That is the first time the “race card” has even been uttered never mind played

All the sniping at BP1960 is embarrassing btw.

He also recommended Burgess

Other than hitting the post what other chances did we create? Nothing described on ifollow, nothing tweeted by the club. 

Now that just isn’t true...

on 84 minutes the club tweeted that “Sylla’s tame effort trickled into O’Donnells hands”

chance - FACT
