cardifflee Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 Are these the same fans who got behind 'Ollie' when we were piss poor and it stood out a mile we were shit? Conclusion = relegation Get a grip i wouldnt boo but i would say my bit and i do, that wasnt good enough for mid table today let alone are quest to rule Europe So like one of the first posts pointed out people pay £30 ish its their choice, maybe if you like shit football and are happy to sit there clapping at a team trying to put 2 passes together maybe you should pop down the M69
blueharmie Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 My choice? Yeah I will boo that was a disgrace. And I won't be paying too watch that again. Overpaid and useless. The deadwood needs to go. I can't remember leicester players ever showing this much disrespect. There are money grabbers and the funny thing is there shit. Apart from kasper. 15th will be a good finish for us. We laugh at cov but just look at the state of us.
roblcfc84 Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 WHO GIVES A ****ING ****?????? HE'S BEING PAID MORE MONEY EACH WEEK THAN I'LL PROBABLY EVER SEE IN A YEAR TO BE SENSATIONALLY USELESS. Oh I'm sorry, I forgot - it might hurt his poor little feelings. I do apologise, wouldn't want little'wittle Gallykins to feel a bit upset because the nasty-wasty fans were having a go at him for not being very good. Aww, bless. **** OFF I haven't read all of this thread so apologise for picking on this comment. But seriously what type of fans do we have. People need to get over the wages element of football. Yes it's crazy, yes it's too much, yes no-one is worth such vast sums of money to play football. But you will have bought shirts, tickets, watched sky, played FIFA etc etc. it is a case of supply and demand. Clubs want to be in the premiere league. To get there they buy the best players, to ensure they get the best players they pay the best wages. It's not a players fault if a club offers them crazy money. It's a cycle. So don't boo someone based on their wages. I'm sure the players don't want to be playing poorly but you trying doing your job with thousands of people saying how bad you are at it. To be honest I would think stuff this lot I won't put a hundred percent in next week. We should encourage players as much as possible, although we are so emotionally invested in the club it is easy to get frustrated. And the I pay my money argument. I pay for the lots of things but if I don't it I don't go verbally abuse the person responsible. Go tell him to his face instead of hiding in stands like a little girl. Let's all get behind th team in a tough period.
SaM 12 Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 What are as fans we supposed to do, I dont agree with the booing but how else do we get the message across to Pearson that these players are not good enough. Just heard the usual Pearson "it wasnt good enough" comment on radio Leicester....Brilliant observation!!! this was the worst performance for ages on top of bad performances against Pompey and Ipswich... Billy Sharp says he is not coming now and who can blame him. peterborough wasn't that good either
jonlcfc1990 Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 They weren't even given a chance to correct their problems before many of the fans were on their backs, if it was at the end of the game only I could half agree with you but it started where I was as soon as Barnsley scored. These people who do it need to piss off and support the Trees or Sheep because they are doing us no favours at all. Why don't you move then instead of making generalizations K and L Block were behind all the players and i was i cheered when beckford came on hoping to give him a boost and we started the chant. Your saying who on the bench could of done a better job well where was Kennedy? Moore? You play well you earn your place in my opinion and they played exceptionally well to come back from loan and go straight in to the team. Finally i don't think you can blame booing on "plastic fans" I've been to every home and away this season bar Bury and Palace and at the final whistle it nearly sent me over the edge i was upset at the performance not the result THE PERFORMANCE i'm a leicester fan i've probably seen us lose a lot more than i've seen us win and yet i've never sen us lose and not play well at the minute we are playing the poorest football i've ever seen and thats what upsets me
GLC Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 People can say and do what they like, thus the world we live In now! But I don't agree with booing, but the last few home games have been awful! So I don't blame them! Regarding Gallagher, I'm sick of his shit corners, his lack of 'bottle', the fact he gives up when he's tackled and his attitude!. I won't cheer when he goes off! Because he plays for Leicester and I support the team. But again I don't blame people! And I'm sick of our midfield being so poor!

Nothing is going to change we are stuck with them unless NP has the bollocks to get rid I somehow don't see it.

I was at Palarse and I agree they both played well but lets not forget that they were only selected due to injury and illness. Trust me I was angry and upset at yesterday's game, but I realise that hammering my own team in our own stadium will only make things even worse.
5waller5 Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 It is amusing that some people appear to genuinely believe that their paltry contribution of the price of a ticket affords their opinions an extra layer of authenticity. Regardless of how much of your own wages you spend and how out-of-pocket you are, the sums of money each of you moaners contribute to the club is so negligible as a percentage of its total revenue (sponsorship & advertising, broadcasting, private investment, ticket sales to people who aren't divs etc) that you really are entirely expendable. Nobody gives a shiny shite about your 'right to say what you want', least of all the manager and the players. When you buy a ticket, you don't also purchase with it the right to have your opinions heard and valued. You have always had the right to say your opinions, but in most other areas of life you don't arbitrarily exercise your rights merely because you can; just because you are able to shout at your own players and boo them, it doesn't mean you are obliged to. Given that players learn very early on to take literally no notice of the horseshit that braindead 'fans' insist on throwing in their direction, how many of the 'I've paid my money so I'll do what I want' brigade are willing to venture what they believe is the best outcome of their constant derogation of their own team's players? What can it actually do? This really is such a stupid thing to say it barely warrants a response .... BUT .... I'm curious how you can begin to justify your statements now you're sober .... If the club had no fans.... where would the money to run a club come from??

sharmanlcfc Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 The reason I go to football matches is to support and cheer on my team. We pay £30 knowing how the teams playing, knowing the forms erratic, knowing that they're underperforming. We pay that money knowing that there's a chance we might/probably play awfully. Knowing that I don't understand how people, having made the choice to pay, feel its beneficial to boo. If players aren't performing, they'll hear the natural moans and groans of fans, but purposely booing and creating a utter Sh*te atmosphere ain't helping anyone. It doesn't improve the team performance and it doesn't improve the satisfaction should we get as fans from the enjoyment of sport.

Christoph Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 The way our fans treat players really isn't going to help morale nor is it going to make us look desirable for potential new targets.
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 I dont think the negativity helps the situation, however as a passionate Leicester City fan i understand when other fans voice their disgust at our overpaid, underperforming "superstars" in yet another woeful home performance. If the players start making Filbo a fortress again, the fans will play their part, but sadly that seems along way away at the minute
m00nie Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 The way our fans treat players really isn't going to help morale nor is it going to make us look desirable for potential new targets. please tell me you dont seriously believe were the only club and forum in the league/world that get on the players backs...
ithuriel Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 The fans got on the players backs because all season, through Sven and now Nigel the communication between players, the poor passing and decision making have finally got too frustrating for some. Nigel has tried swapping things around but maybe we need to undertake some drastic chopping and changing for the first team because these players do not make a good team at all.
mattsmith74 Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 I think this is a classic agree to disagree thread. I love Leicester and have supported them thru thick and thin. My two sons are desperate to see some success being born after MON years. I'm not a huge fan of NP and thought the Sven appointment was silly when a manager who understood the Championship was needed. West Ham got it bang on and look where they are. We would all love to play footy professionally but being well paid doesn't mean you aren't human and be affected by pressure. All LCFC fans, plastic or not want success and I think it is understandable, though not helpful when we express our opinions. NP needs time. Let's see what rest of Jan brings. I'm concerned about our sliding down the table but we should be good enough to stop that and then rebuild in the summer (again). Even in the darkest times remember it could be worse. You only have to look down the M69. Here endeth the lesson.
Shrenchel Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 Fair enough to anyone who wants to 'voice their discontent' now and then, if they're actually going to spend most the time getting behind the team. Far too many cvnts at the KP though who don't sing all game then boo at the end, who groan loudly at a wayward pass but don't bother to applaud a decent one. Unless we play well from start to finish and win comfortably, I find home games pretty painful due to the amount of misery and negativity in the stands. Got maximum respect for people who put up with that every fortnight.
MrBojangly Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 I think Foxestalk fans are getting angrier by the day. I'm worried about our collective health. I suggest we all gather in a park or large open space, kick each other in the knees and then scream until we're spitting blood. Conversely, if anyone would rather just have a hug and a little cry, that might work too.
deep blue Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 Can you imagine trying to get a player to sign for us, Nigel person says 'come down to a match and see the support you will get off our magnificent fans' New player thinks fuk that I'm not going there! You don't think he might be thinking "You wouldn't catch me signing for a club that plays such rubbish"?
breadandcheese Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 I haven't read through the entire thread and am sure this has been posted (if it has, mods, please feel free to delete this post). http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2012/jan/14/terrace-abuse-affects-players Very interesting article from David James.
flowwolf Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 If someone was paying me twenty grand a week they could call me what they like and it would still not take the smirk off my face.
cc_star Posted 15 January 2012 Posted 15 January 2012 If someone was paying me twenty grand a week they could call me what they like and it would still not take the smirk off my face. I always think that, but you'd have to not be human to affected by what the fans say whether there's truth in it or it's just reactionary nonsense

I can understand everyone going quiet after a while if we're playing shocking but there's just so little enthusiasm from the start. Where's the attempt to enjoy yourself?
