Ghost of Clough Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Did the fans turn up today? Once again, the fans didn’t turn up when it mattered. Some running away at half time, some sitting on their hands after we scored. We have a fantastic core you are there to support us home and away, but when it really matters, there’s not enough to spur the team on. It’s no surprise to me our best performances have been away when we’ve taken a few thousand fans. When the ground is silent (home and Wembley) we as fans don’t offer enough.

Sexydadbod Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Villa fans were brilliant and seemed to realise what an important game it was. Don’t usually like calling out our fans but I have to agree with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bald Eagle's Barmy Army Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Load of rubbish. Where I was sat the whole stand was up for it. Naturally you are going to quieten when you concede, especially a second goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The manager, the team, individual players, the fans, doesn't matter who. Probably makes them tumescent or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SillyBilly Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 No surprise when every non-ST holder was thrown into a lottery for a ticket. The way Villa sold they probably had less day trippers there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, can’t remember it being available to ST holders (most of the south was unavailable wasn’t it?) I got one in 113 during ST period, then another 2 in 526 during general sale. Gave my the 113 ticket to someone who went to 10+ games this season to sit in 526 with my brother. A few in that block showed some encouragement, but the majority did not... including some who told me to “sit down and shut up” after we scored Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't recognise you but, given I wasn't telling anyone to shut up then I can safely say it wasn't me. Mind you, if you were spouting similar rubbish, clearly designed to antagonise the majority there were to support Derby then I might well have been tempted. Are you seriously saying people were telling others to shut up and people were leaving at half time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWRam Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Lets face it, Derby support is poor at the best of times. We may have more numbers than a lot of teams, but vocally we are rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
