And try to steer your kids away from idolising mostly vapid multimillionaire footballers as well. That's good advice, I wish I could. That saying about love being close to hate comes to mind.

They're not doing thier bit so I'm not sure how to support them as players. If you're not sure how to support the players, thats fine. The alternative isn't to harass them as civilians, though. 6

Probably got the last tube of Colgate taken off him. 1

Popular Post Footballwipe Posted 3 March Popular Post Posted 3 March Absolutely terrible idea, and you're making it even worse by being a proper defensive princess. These people are not high profile politicians, they're footballers paid to do a job. They're allowed to expect downtime. The odd bellend like yourself, of course, but let's not encourage this kind of behaviour. I'm sure harassment of our players is the ultimate motivator for people. For sure if someone openly criticised me for the work I do in the pub or on a chance encounter, it'd probably have the opposite effect. The fact you think this is acceptable says a lot more about you than anything. I'm heartened so many are calling it out on here tbh. 7

MrLuke Posted 3 March Posted 3 March Regardless of what you think of the performances, I don't think the idea of sticking it to someone who is bereft of any confidence is a good idea, and doesn't benefit anyone.
bovril Posted 3 March Posted 3 March I am actually quite sympathetic to the idea of following Danny Ward around and harassing him as he goes about his daily chores.
ParkerPen Posted 3 March Posted 3 March in this situation, all we can do is ask "What would Bernie have said"
