You just don't seem to understamd do you? It's not for us to cheer, clap, applaud and benerally big up the players when they are obviously not trying. Read some of the other posts about Davies. I go to every game with the intention of enjoying it. It is up to the players to provide the entertainment. Thats why they get paid the amount the do!!!!! Last of.

Nice red writing there. Doesn't alter the fact that those players let us all down yesterday. Seen the highs and lows with this club throughout the past three decades. Thats a supporter......

HE WASNT TRYING AT ALL!!!!!

Because it is my club. The one that my Dad took me to and his dad took him. I have watched the latics since 1962 approx and have never seen a player behave like Davies does. It enfuriates me when I see less than 100% commitment in my work. It is worse when I see the people I look up to on a Saturday not even trying. I am really angry about yesterdays performance because I felt cheated somehow after the game. It will pass however and I will be there next time to shout encouragement and criticism as it is needed....

I wasn't the one who sulked off down the tunnel after being subbed.....

Its still too much.

Oh I don't need to ask. All I need to do is watch them on the pitch!!!!

I am one of those who demands 100% commitment Johnny and I will rant moan and slag the highly paid prima donnas who turn out for my club as long as I want. I will not however, slag a player off for making a mistake. Thay happen. What I will do is continue to support the club of my town long after Sheridan, Davies et al have gone. You have no right to blame the fans for that fiasco yesterday. There was no commitment, ability or pasion on show from the majority of that team. IT WAS A DISGRACE.... They ought to be ashamed of themselves. They earn in a week what I pay tax in two years. I still buy my season ticket every year though. Get your face out of mine and point your criticism where it belongs. IN THAT CHANGING ROOM>>>>>

The mentality of those posters is absolutely right Rick. Why is it only the ex pro's and people like yourself who are the font of all knowledge when it comes to football. There are millions of hours of experience watching football at all levels sat in those stands and they are more than often right when it comes to the game of football. Davies is a disgrace to the shirt of the club that I love. I would personally sack him outright. It has nothing to do with his skill level or ability. He has behaved like a spoilt child since Hughes took the ball off and scored that penalty. I am sure £6.000 pound of wages per week could be better spent.... I am furious at his attitude.Oh and yes I would say it straight into his scowling sulking petulant face....... He lost my beloved club a football match yesterday.

As you sew so shall you reap. You are damn right I was booing him, the selfish, arrogant, one dimensional, lazy sod. Had he played for the team yesterday instead of thinking he is Ronaldo then we would have been three up at halftime with Hughes having had a hat trick. I watched him walk straight down the tunnel after his deserved and much too late substitution. So much for team spirit and supporting your mates. I have never in all the 45 years I have supported and loved this team seen such a waste of a wage!!!!!!!!

Rose tinted or what. Davies obviously has a major problem with Hughes that much is obvious. On at least two occasions yesterday Hughes was wide open on goal and all it needed was for that Greedy B*****d Davies to play the simple pass. Davies looked totally disinterested for 89 minutes of the game and I for one wouldn't pay him with washers. He should be in the reserves and on the training pitch learning to recognise the other ten players on the team. Having learned that simple lesson he should then learn to pass to them occasionally....

And he has probably had a season ticket for the tics for thirty years and is just as entitled to sit there quiet as you are to jump up and down singing. Get off his back and concentrate on supporting the team rather than criticising people who have probably seen more football than you've had hot dinners.

ALAN GROVES. I can't believe that the greatest all round entertainer to put on a Tics shirt has been so far ignored. The man was a genious. Beating his man then going back to beat him again. He put feet in the stands and bums on seats. I know Bobby Johnstone and Jimmy Frizzell served the club but Grovesy entertained and that is what it's all about surely....

on another thread I'm bleating on about players being loyal and then I read this lot. I know for a fact that the players read this forum and how would you feel as one of them if you saw that the fans were calling for you to be released. It would do my motivation no good whatsoever for the rest of the season. Loyalty works both ways and I feel we should encourage every player to improve with us. Lets get up a division and then see what we we need to do. Jeeze

What a load of B*****cks. What is wrong with a group of talented younsters saying to the club who nurtured them."Right boss, We're going to stay here at this club and develop it alongside ourselves. We will work our wotsits off and move up through the divisions together....." Thats called loyalty and ambition. There is nothing stopping the players saying " If we get promotion we insist on re negotiating our contracts." I believe that is what happens anyway.

As a result of getting Planning Permission that pot is suddenly very deep. Even if it is not bottomless. All I'm saying is that the club shoulld be ambitious, not stuck in a day to day existence. Im sick of seeing clubs like Tranmere and the Bristols going past us up the leagues and clubs like us contunually stuck in this cycle of selling our talented youth and bringing in older players past their prime.......

This is exactly what I mean when I say that I and many other supporters love this club more than the players and coaching staff. Here we are talking about who will leave during the Window and no one is coming out of the club saying "I love it here and don't want to leave" Then they wonder why we moan during the games. We should be buying players and refusing all offers for members of our first team squad...... I'm sick of this. We all state there should be consistency in our coaching staff then sell off half the squad on here. Where's the consistency from the players??????

Garcon: I admire and agree with the majority of your post. I am sorry for not replying earlier to your comments but this was because I was staying in Colchester with a good friend who supports Leeds.. He wouldn't let me access this website after the result the other day. I wanted to say that Shez actually used plan b against Leeds and look at the result. He has certainly won me bragging rights for the rest of the season. I would however like to point out the continued insistence by Shez of replacing like for like when he makes substitutions? Have you a view?

Well, kick the dog or put honey on the cat and leave it on an ant hill. Don't take it out on us. We're all a bit delicate this morning. It's the holiday season you know.....

He pays his money so he is entitled to his opinion. We have put up with his kind for 40 years and will have to do so for the next 40. Get off his back and shout your encouragement louder than him. That is the answer, Not trying to cause him grief on here where the grown ups talk to each other.

I have a question for you Stevie... What exactly is Shez's plan B.... when plan a doesn't work.

NO

Why oh why do the Chaddy enders think they know it all. We in the main stand seats support this club just as much if not more than most of you. I pay my money to be entertained because thats what football is in. The entertainment industry. I applaud, encourage, cajole, sing, clap, jump up and down (even with a dicky hip) but I also rant, scream, berate and boo in equal measure should the circumstances dictate. It is up to the players to ensure that I do more of the former and less of the latter...... If it's crap on the pitch I'm going to grumble because thats not what I go to BP to see. The lifestyle the players (even in this division) have is aspired to by everybody sitting in that ground (I think) and they have the responsibility to entertain us, not the other way round. I would never make personal insults of the kind I believe were made towards Ricketts on Satdi but I reserve the right to slag off the collective effort out on the pitch... SO THERE!!!!!!

As an Agnostic I feel rather cheeky saying this but I would like to offer everyone on the OWTB forum best wishes for Christmas and a happy and prosperous new year. In the words of Flanders and Swann... It all makes work for the working man to do...

Hooray, at last some one who has a memory!!!!!!!
