Venomous Crowd

[dayday]

Aint seen it that bad since the Pleat days.

[isaidno]

What happened in G2 ?. Saw some gobby kid getting thrown out.

[DerbyshireFox]

Home crowd are pathetic at the moment. Cheering the sub at half time, booing players on (not today but in recent weeks) - pathetic for so called fans. It’s always Ghezzal and Nacho who cop for it. The slightest pass astray, moan. Having said that thought the atmosphere was okay at the start. Always back the lads unless it suits nowadays. Loudest boos in a while at the end

[H.a.r.r.y]

well, today the atmosphere was better than previous games this year. Until we conceded another 3 goals. Some of our fans need to take a look at themselves, people cheering a player going off, they can't call themselves supporters, embarrassing 

[hejammy]

I think rather than 'venomous', the crowd are just a bit fed up. This is the reason why... We are simply terrible this season at home and 1 place above relegation in the home results table 

[nettle]

Now I know why Ghezzal gets taken off at halftime so know one can boo him?

I’m shocked there are worse teams than us at home 

[l444ry]

Surprised it's taken this long for the crowd to show this level of displeasure to be honest.

[Rusko187]

Not having that, been in L1 but got behind the team. No booing or nothing! 

[Fox92]

Have you forgotten about the period between 2004-2008? Yes we're poor now, yes the crowd is (rightly) venomous, but I dunno why people suddenly forget what we've been through in the last ten years - including Ranieri's second season and Shakespeare's spell which were both shit.

I would say the crowds been patient giving the home for for the past year or so 

[Guest Col city fan]

People can’t stand Puel.

I get it. Neither can I 

[LestaAl]

I left 5 mins early to avoid the inevitable booing.

The crowd were behind the team for about 55-60 mins but reality set in that we were going to struggle to get ahead.

 

Given the dross the home supporters have been subjected to for much but not all of the season I think they have been quite restrained TBH

[joachim1965]

Flatest atmosphere I have ever seen.

The fans almost make me want to back the man who's taking us backwards, amd applaud crap performances, just to compensate for their idiocy. Morons everywhere.

[Bunyip]

The fans voted with their feet and who can blame them.

Oh dear, we're in real danger of being relegated from the home division

[EverybodyDannsNow]

I've been critical of our home support recently but where I was today (K block), everyone got behind the players in the opening stages and the atmosphere was good. 

 

It only went south when the realisation hit that we were being embarrassed at home by a mediocre Crystal Palace side. 

[Mr Weller]

Crowd were really good today. They were buoyed by the Spurs performance and felt confident but that feeling collapsed when they how thiecsecond.

[Hammo]

Yeah, blame the fans blah, blah. It's all our fault.

 

Pathetic.

 

[Bezzanator89]

Thought the crowd were pretty good in the first half. Even the sucker-punch by Batshuayi didn't really dampen the spirits. We all knew we did not deserve to be behind, but that hint of resignation that it was the same story that has been retold many times of late. All the possession but still the first to concede. Blah, blah, blah.

 

The barmy substitutions however, and the manner of the goals conceded, they were just reactions from fans who know their squad is capable of more, but are fed up of waiting.

[Guest seanfox778]

I'll never be a booer but can’t really blame them at the moment. Losing at home to lower mid table Palce with no real injury problems or suspensions says we have a problem. Booing doesn’t solve anything, I guess it’s the only real way for some of the crowed to vent their feelings, only adds to the mounting issues though.

[Monsell1976]

Not hearing puel out chants, and who stayed to boo, I was long gone

[Mr Weller]

I think we gave the team good support until the very end when things went horribly wrong. Our fans are excellent and entitled to be very frustrated

They're not voting with their feet, otherwise they'd just piss off and stop coming. Frankly, I don't care if you like the manager or the style of play - argue that online, in the pub, on the phone in, but when the players are out on the pitch, back them. What did I hear instead today at the back of the kop? "You shit showpony" (at Maddison after a free kick hit the wall). "You thick headed ****" (at Maguire after a header over"), people shouting at Gray, Ghezzal and Iheanacho to **** off out the club. It's ****ing toxic, and the attendees (they aren't ****ing fans) that do that need to bloody well vote with their feet so we don't have to hear them
