scotty doesn't know

Im quite shocked to hear that latics supporters think we cant use bad home support as an excuse for losing on Saturday. During the second half in the "singing section" (hmmm) someone turned round and told me off for clapping because it was annoying him!!! We exchanged words and it drew quite a bit of attention and after this there was no more singing for the rest of the game. I was really annoyed about this and actually considered not going to home games anymore. However, I know I'll be there tomorrow.... And to cap it all off there were latics fans throwing bottles at Matt Glennon at the final whistle... I wont deny that Im quite ashamed to support latics at the moment.

You really need to get to your anger management classes more often. Just because someones opinion differs from your is no excuse for your post. This forum exists so that people can express their views objectively. I would recommend another site to you but can't be bothered. People... we need to challenge opinions such as this or debate is dead... Socrates!!!

Why??? Do you like to moan??

I dont know why but Ive left early more times this season and before Ive never left early.The football is absolutely boring and even when Latics score I dont get "the feeling" of what I used to do. It may be me growing up and realising that we are never destined for glory and that we will continue to dream but I constantly walk away from BP thinking what a waste of an afternoon and nowhere near worth the money I pay. Its different away I love every away match I go to because the crowd are going and we tend to play more attractive football. I dunno why but the players just look like they cant be arsed at home. Look at davies runs his socks off and terrorises Hudds defence away but at home he was a lazy sod who looked like he couldnt be arsed. Something has to be done because Im growing tired of our only hope of changing a game and winning it is Matty Wolfenden (a player who would barely make it intoo my monday night 6 a side team). Also I sit in the Paddock near the away fans and if anyone tries to sing and get behind the team they are told to sit down because of what? It isnt health & safety cos anyone anywhere in the ground can stand and sing. By telling fans to sit down it only causes more grief and angers the particular section. I dont blame the "bandwagon" men because unless something is done in terms of investing in the team then I will soon become one of them. Its alright saying were skint but Brighton have forked out a fortune and theyre no better off thats also not including all the money the owners will make off developing the site around BP, its pathetic that we cant "afford" anybody because they must be sitting on a nice few mill from the development.

I agree that home games are boring but I dont think the football is, I think its the fans. Fans like you. Your obviously stuck in the past and you probably just sit there expecting us to win... which is why we dont. We've got a very young squad this season and the expectations of people are breaking them. You really need to shut up about the players not being arsed at home. The players are only people and they will respond when fans get behind them, which explains our excellent away record. Craig Davies is one of our best players and hes very gifted also. Just shut up about players not caring FFS!!! You probably like players like Paul Warne who "have the heart" as you would say... but in reality are very average and never achieve anything. Just dont come to home games if your going to say things like this FFS!!!

Im inclined to agree Wozz!!

SHUT UP!!! I reaallllly hate latics fans like you cause you dont admire players with skill that are definitely going to go onto better things.... instead you like your players who "have the heart" like Paul Warne, who dont. YOUR SO ENGLISH. And just to prove your such an old timer- its not the George Hill Stand. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease can we make this happen!!! The New Start Mortgagees stand is being demolished soon and all supporters have to move to another area of the stadium so its the perfect time to change. We reeeeallly need to do it and just forget tradition FFS!! MORE ON BOARD PLEASE!! Does this call for a petition??

Definitely half full........ I didnt even know we were 7 points from the fourth bottom place....... just that were 10 points off the play offs with 2 games in hand- thats really not too bad, especially considering we have an inexperienced manager and a young side....... The half empty fans should stay at home and Im pretty sure some latics fans go to games just for an excuse to moan. I think we should all draw up a few alternative matchday activities for these fat middle aged bald men- preferably as far away from BP as possible. SMILE. BE HAPPY

2 games in hand though................

I think this calls for a petition!!

I dont know if hes back at BP but I hope he is. Contrary to the views of most latics fans I think hes one of our best players but I dont actually think he would want to play for us after "Die Ricketts Die"..... I think he should move to a club with better supporters that arent stupid and that actually treat quality players with the respect they deserve.................. Anyone with me on this??
