CHRIS GUNTER

i have sat in the ninian stand for the last 2 seasons and listerned to our supporters giving chris gunter abuse! .... to be honest i really cant understand this as he always played well for us, he never asked to leave cardiff, was a cardiff supporter and a bloody good welsh international.... the last game i was cringing but how badly he was treated! .... come on boys we are better than that!

We've been through all this before but just to refresh the short memories of some....

Gunter was VERY disingenuous towards his former club before last season's game at the CCS and DELIBERATELY came over to the Ninian Stand to salute the Forest Scabs and then proceed to run along the touchline staring out the fans in 117/118

When they (Forest) scored he again approached the away supporters clenching his fist and acting like he'd personally scored the winner in the FA Cup Final....all in front of the fans of his so-called 'home' club....

He TRIED to do the same this year but a very large police officer came down to the front of the stand and gave him 'the look' at which point Gunter turned and (sensibly) ran away....

Now call me pedantic but if that isn't a very disingenuous act towards the club that made him then I don't know what is....

His Forest colleague, City legend Robert Earnshaw, didn't act in this way and has always remembered from whence he came, even 'doing the Ayatollah' on request....

The same went for Steve Thompson the other night....and others have done similar (I remember Nathan Blake having big grief off his manager once for doinf similar)

I am certainly one of the ones who gives Gunter stick (much to the amusement of those around me who have rarely seen me so animated) and I will continue to do so until he either apologises OR learns not to antagonise the very fans that got behind him when he was 'pne of ours' not too long ago....

Spot on SG.

I missed out on last years antics by Gunter as I was away so this season when Forest came to the CCS I carefully watched Gunter after the final whistle. On his way to the Forest fans Gunter starred directly into 117/118 making sure he was being watched. He then, in front of the Forest fans, did an aggressive 2 arm salute towards them.

Fair enough he is a Forest player and they are paying his wages. However there is a line you dont cross when it comes to your previous clubs and he has crossed it. How many times do you see professional footballers scoring against their previous clubs and NOT celebrating the goal? The fans dont have a problem seeing their ex players score against their team, its what we expect them to do. Its how they act after that counts and as far as I am concerned Gunter has not acted respectfully on this subject and deserves the abuse he get from where he has come from.

Absolutely....and only a member of his family could even attempt to defend him!!!!
