Watching vesty get exposed is always satisfying

Wow, you really should go and support someone else with that attitude. Do you also celebrate if our goalie lets in a goal. You must have really liked Ward.

To those fans who "feel glad that we lost" or the above post regarding Vestguard, could you pause just for one minute and **** OFF!

Turning on Marti at this point is weird by the way, he's working with absolutely shite players, and the likelihood is he's facing pressure externally (agents, DOF) to keep featuring certain wasters on the off chance they get interest before the window closes.

 

They won't of course, because they're shit, but it'll be interesting to see who he chooses once the transfer window slams shut. Hoping it's the floodgates for the likes of Page, Aluko, Monga etc to feature more prominently.

Turning on Marti is insane. Mental. 

[Fightforever]

Fatawu and Monga are the only players who look like they give a **** currently.

 

Mcateer too but I don’t think he’s good enough to be honest which is sad because you can tell he does his best. 
 

Regardless it’s 100% a mental problem. This side isn’t great but they’re better than getting completely dominated by Preston.

There were 'leicester fans' in the stadium will preston to score a third when they broke away near the end. The mentality!

Exactly this. I’m almost on my own in holding this view, but I think the fans were the biggest contributing factor to our relegation with Rodgers and the Dean Smith. At the beginning of that season we were playing genuinely good football, but after a few unlucky results the fans started booing everything. You could literally see the confidence and morale drain out of the players. We never recovered.

 

Don't let Rodgers off with any excuses. He was fully responsible for being in that position. Appalling management.

I don’t agree with much of what you say based on your staunch defence of anything to do with the club and owner but I think this is spot on and something 99%+ of us should agree on (the -1% being those who are of this mentality).

 

Most of the players are dislikable and I can’t wait for them to go. But to take satisfaction in them being poor is counter productive. Like those who say we would better staying down. No, we would be better going back up, being sensible and not chucking £30mill on Ayew and Skipp!

So you think I'm the problem.... that hilarious! 

 

Nowhere did I say I 'felt Rudkin is doing a great job'! The length of contracts that have been given, with the inflated salaries he has dished out are ridiculous.

 

My point is, and to confirm it is a serious one, I consider singing anti-Rudkin songs during the game instead of backing the players on the pitch is counterproductive and does F**k All to spur on the players. No sure why you don’t get that!

So in reality when else do the fans get the chance to voice their opinions, concerns and frustrations about the running of the club, only chance is during the game and why is that because the club refuse to communicate with its fanbase. 
 

oh and just for context, if i see mistakes being made by players giving 100% I wouldn’t dream of booing or turning on them, the atmosphere was positive at the start of the game, frustration crept in as the game progressed and it was evident that many were going through the motions and coming out 2nd best to a club who nearly got relegated to league one and are run on a shoestring in comparison to us. The fans reaction yesterday was 100% on the players that performance was a disgrace, maybe it’s time for some of the players to take some responsibility and accountability rather than using the media to tell the world they don’t want to be here maybe they could hold their hands up and accept they haven’t been all sweetness and light these last 12 months.

Good to hear you were amongst those booing but my contention is, and always will be, that how does booing players or singing derogatory songs about the DOF, during the game, actually help?

I think the DOF song started at around 5 minutes, before Preston even scored. FFS!

We need to protest like Wednesday fans, arrive 5 minutes late or something , and then support the team and every player 100% during the game. 

 

These players are spineless, with so many contracts expiring and if were not careful we'll be in a relegation fight.

I also think players making half arsed efforts, downing tools or checking out is derogatory to the performance levels, what are your thoughts on this and do you think as paying customers we should happily accept players disrespecting the club, the owner who pays their wages and the supporters who part with there hard earned cash, intrigued for your thoughts on this …..

What exactly do you want my thoughts on?

 

The performance of specific players, which was far below then standard I would expect, or whether I would boo players during a game? If the latter, then I don’t do that, as I do not consider it productive.

[Dan]

That game was simply embarrassing and a disgrace. Comfortably second best to a side largely tipped to struggle who stayed up last season on the final day. It wasn't like the Plymouth loss under Maresca, as bad as that was, which was genuinely a bit unlucky despite everything. This was just rank, a terrible team exposed by an average at best one.

 

Frankly a bottom three level performance. I doubt even someone like Stockport would've served that up.

 

We really are the absolute dream opposition for literally anybody. The illusion of a good side but one you'll get a tonne of joy against. Imagine how emotional Nathan Jones is going to be when he beats this complete rabble next week.

I don’t agree with picking on Faes for that individually but the fact Monga had scored his first senior goal and all apart from Fatawu just turned and walked away shows how rotten the culture is. From all the team not just Faes but including him.
 

Monga showed ultimate professionalism running to get on with the game but they could still have come over and congratulated him and run back with him like Fatawu did.

 

 

Feas and winks high five or congratulate him as well but no others

Prematch, half time and post match, the Directors Box is empty and there’s minimal live tv and radio coverage. How else do you expect the message to get across?!

 

I doubt the players take much notice of it to be honest. And if they do, maybe there’s a few of them stood there thinking “yeah, he is a tool” because he’s hampering their success by failing to get a decent squad around them.

 

There are a lot of people who seemingly think he’s a problem but will state you can’t  chant certain chants about him or you have to be selective about when you chant about him. Doesn’t quite add up.

You sound like my mate, he's a huge Leicester Tigers fan. The reason I stopped going to the rugby, the knobhead fans who'd cheer at half time if City were losing

I am asking if you think as supporters we should meekly accept the level of performance served up yesterday?  Is players giving well less than 100% effort not as negative and disgraceful as fans showing their disapproval to such a performance or are you saying the players can do it but the fans cannot react to such a poor performance.

Anyone saying they're happy Vestegaard got skinned or wanted Preston to score a third are the happy clappers who wank off to King Power and watch their wives get railed by other men
