Our fans panic when we have possession

Sun Mar 22, 2015 5:00 pm

I sat with the old folks in 112 FF yesterday and the sheer panic in them when in the first half we kept the ball was palpable.

Can we as a fan base tolerate a possession based game or have decades in the dungeon formed our opinions on the game.

PS

Our fan base is far too old....The club must try to redress this.

We've lost 600 lads.

So many have drifted away now that the lack of core and few 'city' pubs to congregate in needs addressing.

Also. Too expensive for tickets for your poorly paid youngsters to get in.

We must change the rules for the ground.

The family section should be for anyone who wants a family atmosphere not just with kids. Many couples may be happier in the family area. No standing or swearing should always be the rules in there.

The canton should be much cheaper, especially for unaccompanied kids. I was in the bob bank with my mates from 14.

Our fans aren't that bright never have been. Yesterday, especially when we had the ball, Brum dropped into a 4-6-0 flooding the midfield, neither Jones nor Revell are any good at dropping in and Noone is the only midfielder with pace so we were a bit slow for such a deep set up.

Also makes it tough to move for was when they can have an extra player, or two against us. But yet if we pass side ways and keep possession people start jeering. Say what you want, the Jacks do not do this.

Totally agree. I sit in 112 and the sheer amount of older gents shouting to 'get it forward' was quite surprising. If nothings on, then nothings on. Play it out wide, then back inside if needs be. Some people cant adapt to the modern philosophy of things and would prefer Ben Turner to left peg it 60 yards up field.

People are never ever happy, I agree with you. :thumbup:

Starting to get really fed up with the idiots who heckle every time a pass doesn't go forward up the pitch.
