MuespachRam Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Not sure if this is mentioned anywhere else but j have just seen it, rather bizarre to say the least, seemed to be aiming a few X rated choice words towards the crowd behind that goal....

North_Stand_Ram Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Not near me but a mate said he shouted flipping get in there, but I've seen a few people on Twitter say he told the crowd the flip off, so who knows... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddie Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 The less secure fanbase will take whatever he said as a personal insult and turn on him. They have 'previous' and seem to be in need of a bit of a whinge - especially in the light of our whole season collapsing (also known as 'two draws') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admira Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 It did seem a bit bizarre to react like that after the South Stand had sung his name and supported him throughout the match. Probably one idiot near the front giving him stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestKentRam Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I took it as he was letting the frustration of not scoring for a few games out. He shrugged off Johnny Russell, that was odd as most celebrations are a team effort now, but I thought this was to go ballistic and 'let it out' by himself. It culminated with him giving the goal side-netting a good kicking that looked quite funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ossieram Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Perhaps he spotted the bloke who had given him some abuse in the Asda carpark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srg Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Seems like this is getting a bigger reaction than the Baird **** episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stive Pesley Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I think if you check out some of his other goal celebrations, this was by no means unusual. I've seen him shrug the others off loads of times. Just his "thing" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Thought he was just relieved to score. Let out a lot of frustration and equalised in the 88th minute in a game all our players were extremely up for.They really wanted to win. Clement was saying they're gutted in the changing rooms. He also angrily punched the ball on the full time whistle. Don't think it was aimed at anyone. Martin is very much loved. Even his biggest critics can't really get a word in because there's about 500 people between them and the next critic ready to defend him. I love a moaning, whining, dirty and angry Chris Martin. His worst performances come when he's not being a cnut. Bordering on modern legend at this club now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclej Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Yes, rather bizarre to say the least. What must have been going through his head when he put that one away. His reaction must have been one of relief but no one can condone him shrugging off Russel to deliver one of the most extraordinary outbursts of oral abuse against his own fans. His overall performance during the game must have been frustrating for him, having been overlooked for a penalty and having balls bounce off him rather than him laying them off, and his relatively (for him) long period without scoring must have added to that. We sometimes forget these players are still kids really and its difficult to know what he can actually hear from the crowd during his game to feel so offended. Martin is one player who can contribute the least to be awarded the greatest accolades. Being in the right place at the right time for the simplest of side-foots into the goal is his job. He needs to stick to it and not revert to the thugish behavior he had at Norwich. Swearing at his own crowd is something Terry would do. He is far better than that.

Animal is a Ram Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Player vents his inward frustration at not scoring for so long, by scoring. Massive relief. Not bothered how sweary he is. Rather that than bottle it all up. I'm too happy that he's scored and rescued a deserved point to care about him unleashing a few f-bombs. Fans are too precious.

mozza Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Those who are offended by a player venting his relief at scoring after a barren run (by his standards) need to take a long , hard , look at themselves .. I've every confidence Martin will score for fun again , starting Tuesday .. After all , it's what he does .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
