Should have been in the Kippax in the 80's/90's. Some proper moaning c*nt's in there.I’m happy to be shot down on this. There are plenty of folk who think that paying their entrance fee gives them the right to say anything during the match - but there has to be a limit.
The miserable old git behind me at Palace spent 90 minutes slagging off the whole team and style of play. Not a positive word came out of his mouth. He did not join in with the chants that can motivate the players.
Others around me shrugged their shoulders and bit their lip but, like me, said nothing to him. A bit like the way racists used to be tolerated, but not called out.
We should unite against the miserable gits, tell them to change or bugger off to somewhere where they have every reason to be miserable- the swamp perhaps.
Then replace them with appreciative vocal fans who can raise the collective mood, even on days when things don’t go so well.
Navas was a very underrated player, he was someone who always gave their all in the cause.You're right - but I always think Navas got a bum rap.
well i liked him. not that you have to of course .You're basing all this off a man who lost an FA Cup final to Wigan, couldn't get us past the group stages of the Champions League (groups containing Napoli/Villareal and Sporting/Dortmund) and got us knocked out of the Europa League against Dynamo Kiev and Sporting ffs, with a Premier League winning squad and elite world class players. A little perspective needed. I love Mancini, but this idea that he's a top level all-timer manager capable of winning 3 Champions Leagues in a decade at City is farcical. Nothing about his career suggests it.
In fact, post City his domestic career has been nowt but a failure. Flopped at Galatasaray and Zenit, despite both being easily the biggest clubs in their domestic comps, and meandered to nowt at Inter before being sacked. Probably because he has a penchant for pissing everyone off, like he did at City, making the squad untenable. He even sorta messed up with Italy post the Euros win. They're currently behind Switzerland after winning only 4 out of 8 games, underwhelming immensely.
Once again, I absolutely loved what he did for us and I will forever be grateful, but I can still see his very obvious flaws. The idea that he's near Pep's level, or would be capable of reaching the same, previously unthinkable heights that Pep has achieved here, is based entirely on emotion and nothing logical at all. It's just rose-tinted glasses, which he's earned admittedly, but it isn't rational. There's a reason he's not been managing huge clubs since leaving City!
Oh and finally, Pep just a 'good' manager. Ffs.
