' VIDEO ' " CRAIG BELLAMY CRITICISES CITY FANS "

I saw Bellamy do that full time and wondered whether it was the whitts substitution or the fans getting on his back for blaming other players for his mistakes or shit passes. A game of two halves. Agree fans reaction to whitts substitute was out of order. But City fans want to stay in the Premier League we are bottom of the league passionate about their club and if the team or players aren't pulling thier weight then the fans who pay the players wages and a lot of money for a season have a right to moan and have a go at them. Supposed to be athletes and pro footballers and most of the season we've been unable to keep the ball for more than 2 mins unless we go backwards and run thier bollocks off for 9 mins. Only noone, Mutch and medel do this week in week out. We play at home we should set up attacking against the club's around us. For me Bellamy is a bench player he dosent give us anything anymore. Shut up and let's concentrate on keeping the club up.

f**k of Bellamy. You're a plastic scouse tw*t, that first half was absolutely embarrassing, if you had any sense you'd keep your gob shut.

He's lucky Solksjaer had the sense to put Zaha on to take some of the sting out of the half because if he hadn't there would have been murder at half time.

Try spelling 'off' and 'Solskjær' correctly for a start.

My god that is pathetic...

You are (IMHO) an absolute disgrace IF those first few words are your genuine thoughts on Craig Bellamy

Answer me honestly: Do you genuinely believe Whitts deserved what he got when taken off after all he has done (including remaining loyal) for Cardiff City FC for more years than most and do you think Craig was wrong to defend the guy so visibly on the field??

For me, Whitts did not deserve it and Craig was right to admonish those fans that booed

Despite not having a major influence on first-half proceedings, for the fans to so 'cheaply' boo him goes down as one of the most embarrassing 'fan' moments in my long association with the club

It's a pity a lot of those same 'fans' weren't so vocal after we went 1-0 down and the Canaries were chanting "We'll sing on our own..."

Time to realise that the Premier League was never going to be easy and the guys on the pitch gave it their all today; none more so than our outstanding keeper, David "Stretch" Marshall

Fans expect players to put as much into the game as they've done so year in year out at huge costs, if fans have an opinion they've every right to voice it.

Booing a player off isn't always ideal but if the manager refuses to drop them when they are playing sub par in a relegation dog fight and doesn't seem to be putting every last ounce of effort in, what else are fans to do?

The spoken word / noise is all a fan has to show what they think, so you can't blame them for using that power!

And if 20,000 people all agree and are happy a player is getting subbed because they are playing woeful how are they in the wrong for expressing that?

It's not I am a celebrity get me out of here or big brother..... Do you really think he is not trying ?

90 mins. I think OGS got the selection wrong first half. Don't think Fabio, Whitts, or Bellamy should have started. If Bellamy watches that first half again he'll see what the fans were on about. Plus if he was a fan in the stands he'd be the worst culprit for moaning as that's all he seems to do on the pitch instead concentrate on playing football.

Fabio had a good debut and Bellamy scored our equalizer......and you dont think they should have started?

You sir, are a mentalist

It was a must win game today,pressure on, emotions were running high,he did'nt deserve the stick he got but i for one was more than happy when he came off,he should not have started today, his form of late has been awful,players take the applause they should also be able to take the stick when it comes around,they get paid enough after all,Great 3 pts

Spot on

I saw Bellamy putting his fingers to his lips and going "Shhsh" to both the Canton and Grandstand when he scored.

Mmm.

After the show that not only Whittingham but the rest of the team, including you Mr Bellamy, put in during the first half he surely can't expect unqualified support. It's not a one way street - supporters like to see a team competing like a Premiership side not like a hungover pub team on a Sunday morning!

And try looking in the mirror before critisizing fans and ask if that first half performance really deserved any other reaction from fans who pay a lot of money (and even more next season!) and some of whom were still sat on a bus at 4am last wednesday morning before having to be in work at 6.30.

How old are you ?

I'll be 8 next bithday!

Seriously I need to try to understand why I am so outraged by today and you are not. Perhaps its generational or I grew up watching us when we were shit.
I am 46 and first went down (with my mates) in 82

Ok lets get this straight. If Bellamy is simply referring to the cheering that took place when Whitts was substituted I agree with him entirely. It was the right decision but the reaction of some of our "fans" was embarrassing. I wasn't "outraged" like you were but I was rather sad for Whitts who seems a likeable man who has contributed an awful lot to the success of the club over the past few seasons.

However, if Bellamy thinks that fans are not entitled to comment on or criticize the poor performances of the team then he is entitled to that opinion but i think he is wrong. How else can the fans express their displeasure or frustration at what they are seeing from professional, Premiership footballers?

I don't boo the team - I don't boo the players. I try to support them but I can understand the frustrations of those who choose to express them in that way. Bellamy should realize this or does he think that the "job" of a fan is blindly to support and cheer whatever performance the palyers are putting in?

I was glad he scored his first goal today for us since last December - I don't need him running towards the crowd suggesting they shut up because he doesn't approve of the way they feel he and the rest of the team are playing.

And if we're swinging dicks, I'm 51 and first went (with my dad) in 1970

f**k of Bellamy. You're a plastic scouse tw*t, that first half was absolutely embarrassing, if you had any sense you'd keep your gob shut.

He's lucky Solksjaer had the sense to put Zaha on to take some of the sting out of the half because if he hadn't there would have been murder at half time.

^^^^ We do not need fans like this at our club!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bellamy is 100% correct! It was disgusting how our fans aimed our frustration at whittingham, hes been great servant for our club, hes done great things for us, yea he isnt maybe playing well, but how is that going to change if fans get on his back!

I was at the game and fans in the canton stand were terrible, jumping on anyone's back who made a mistake! no team can dominate all of the game and they are humans they make mistakes!!

INSTEAD OF JEERING AND BOOING PLAYERS, WHY DON'T WE JUST BACK THEM, CHEER FOR THEM EVEN WHEN WE ARE LOSING!!

Time to realise that the Premier League was never going to be easy and the guys on the pitch gave it their all today; none more so than our outstanding keeper, David "Stretch" Marshall

The players gave absolutely nothing the first 30 minutes of this game.

The minimum I expect from a player like Whitts is being able to pass the ball 6 yards to players next to him and being able to carry the ball 6 yards without running into an opposition player because he had his head down. He was not capable of either of that today.

If you look at my posts I'm not a Whittingham booboy, I have been defending him on here for the vast majority of my posts on him but today he was an embarrassment to the shirt. There is no loyalty in football, we've paid him well for his services and if it's reached a point where he's no longer capable of providing those services then he should be taken out of the team and sold in the summer.


As for Bellamy. Yes, those are my actual thoughts.

Bellamy is our highest paid player. He earns more in a week that I do in 2 and a half years. He got a 1 million pound promotion bonus last year. This while our club has gone into more and more debt.

There is only one reason he plays for us and that is because he was sleeping around in Liverpool and he got caught out and his marriage fell apart.

If that hadn't happened he would still be playing at his boyhood club without giving us a second thought.

It was embarrassing, Whitts was playing poorly, his free kick was woeful & he couldn't wait to take it, didn't seem to know whether to shoot or cross and did neither.
When I saw Zaha stripped, I thought "wow, FairPlay Ole" and like everybody else assumed Whitts would go off, I clapped as much out of sympathy for Whitts as I was pleased to see Zaha. I didn't boo Whitts, would never boo one of our players, but admit to cursing a few, is that the same?

Not sure if Bellamy's comments are well timed mind after a must win game and on the lead up to the Jacks?

Much of that that might be right, but he (Bellamy) is here and he defended his team-mate against an unfair (IMHO) tirade from a section of fans and, for me, he was right

Quote: "There is no loyalty in football"

If fans are that quick to forget a players contribution over so many years, then who can blame them because it appears from your own comments that some fans can be as bad and/or worse?

It's all opinion, fella, but the key is justifying it

Fickle fans of ours the majority booing we're prob plastic we don't need all this negative shit support tha boys and especially when the players been gd servants to us

Look its alright to be disappointed when they lose the ball or pass doesnt go the way, everyone goes for god sake, but booing a player it was disgusting and as think it's right to say those comments! i would have said them!

i really feel that we expect to much after the last season, this year is different we are going to struggle THATS THE PREMIER LEAGUE!

Fickle fans of ours the majority booing we're prob plastic we don't need all this negative shit support tha boys and especially when the players been gd servants to us

Spot on mate!!

I don't really think it was necessary of Bellamy to drive a wedge between fans and the team right in the middle of the most important month of fixtures of the season either but it's done now.

Don't get me wrong about Whitts btw, I like him and really hope he can get his head right and get back to his best. I was singing his praises all week after his game against Man U and that's part of why I feel so hurt about how poorly he played today tbh!

Listen we need the fans to play a part in the relegation battle and first half you could here a pin drop.

Craig is a passionate man that wants cardiff city to do well no dought about that.

Thought he was very good today in his new role but not sure cardiff city is his number one club I think Liverpool wins that one but I do love his passion for this club.

Long may it continue glad hes back and he seems to lift the whole team.

What does he mean it's not from the club he's from.

He's not even a cardiff fan he's a plastic scoucer

Scouser *

Bellamy is Cardiff through and through , can't believe your comments , been at the rugby have you ?

He already said he didn't support Cardiff when he was younger so how is he Cardiff through and through?

Me and my mates sit in 114 ninian and there was no booing of whitts there just support for the boys

90 mins. I think OGS got the selection wrong first half. Don't think Fabio, Whitts, or Bellamy should have started. If Bellamy watches that first half again he'll see what the fans were on about. Plus if he was a fan in the stands he'd be the worst culprit for moaning as that's all he seems to do on the pitch instead concentrate on playing football.

Fabio had a good debut and Bellamy scored our equalizer......and you dont think they should have started?

You sir, are a mentalist

Would have started Theo and Campbell/ Dahli. So you didnt see him throw the ball to Norwich players 5 times or numerous risky pass backs. Giving their wingers acres by backing off them. First half was like a pre season game. Granted he scored... just hitting ball straight at keeper and a clearance off the line. Dont think he offers anything to the team apart from his whining he comes too deep for the ball when the midfield is packed instead of giving us an outlet and option up front. I'm not a fan.

When home fans boo their own players the only ones who benefit are the opposition. Our players will be thinking its Whitts this week, could be me next week.

We need to be the 12th man in the run-in. That means 100% support for the boys, especially when things aren't working out right.

If you're not prepared to dig in with the troops and help create the team spirit we're going to need in a relegation dogfight, please don't bother coming at all.

f**k of Bellamy. You're a plastic scouse tw*t, that first half was absolutely embarrassing, if you had any sense you'd keep your gob shut.

Nice one, but I just think Bellers defending his colleague was the right thing to do on this occasion

were paying customers. dont pussyfoot around these players living around past glories, if your not pulling your weight or not good enough for the prem. clock out and go home,

were paying customers

Sorry, but you sum up there everything that sucks about modern football fans.

We are a passionate fanbase and passion is not good when things are going wrong.

Haven't seen " pashun" there for years

When we smashed u a few weeks ago you were soulless

Now your attacking your own players ???

why are fans surprised at bellars reaction? did it before and why shouldnt he? hes as passionate as you can get in a palyer! long my it continue, as people forget at times last season his drive dragged our team kicking and screaming towards the premier single handedly!

Booing a cardiff legend sums up cardiff these days.

Some of you people are a f*cking disgrace!! I wasn't happy today, Whitts was poor, and he was substituted, rightly so, but the atmosphere was shit, crap singing, no noise, no attempt at lifting the lads today at all.

For anyone to boo Whitts was f*cking terrible and you should all f**k off to old Trafford to cheer on mata, if the guy had any shred of confidence before that game, you f*cking killed it.

Bellamy was right to say what he said.PW has been an idol here for years and has struggled at this level, that's isn't entirely his fault.

Cannot believe it
