What An Embarrassment

I was sat in the pub with heatonwhite and william bear watching the match and was embarrassed about the amount of empty seats in the ground. It really is pathetic. And what made it worse is all the people were leaving early too. I'm glad they missed the 3rd goal

fishing trip Jay? :p

not at all mate

 

the abuse we were getting off munichs etc who were there was shocking

 

the potatoe ash was good though

I think our support in the first half was THE worst I've ever seen at a home game, spanning back 30 years and incorporating all sorts of irrelevent competitions.

 

BWFC are reaping what they've sewn, an apathetic, sterile atmosphere that probably is better watched in a pub.

Or freezing your tits off, surrounded by nobheads accusing Anelka of being lazy, such is their understanding of football. I'd rather be surrounded by Munichs.

Ah, how we'll all enjoy sitting in the pub with a pint & a plate of tatty ash watching DVDs of these Prem seasons when the Whites are back in the lower divisions due to lack of support. Great days to look forward to !!

i'm not biting.. it is now boring even for me....

 

however..

 

you lot will ultimatly be responsible for your clubs demise..

 

 

see you in madrid !!! :drinks:

I'm afraid that the Premiership is the most exciting league in the world - but only for the armchair fan. However the spectating fan has to put up with a sanitised 'matchday experience' at a sterile, out-of-town, identikit stadium - BWFC being a prime example.

 

Over the last 20 years the development in TV coverage (build-up, special effects, hysteria, wall-to-wall coverage) has been immense. Meanwhile the BWFC 'matchday experience' has slumped hopelessly, in spite the upturn in fortunes on the pitch.

 

I think the board need to consider why 5000 fans are prepared to spend ?350 on a couple of days in Munich where the game is the fundamental reason for their visit, but aren't prepared to spend ?350 on a season ticket getting them into 19 home games.

The reason is 19 games at the Reebok didnt even touch the 2 days we had in Munich.

 

BWFC fcuked up by pricing their 2006/2007 ST's at a price that made it not in the fans interest to buy a ST. Plenty of the fans have done just that, once you dont buy a ST, you find it harder to go.

Is right. How can you moan about the atmosphere if you're sat in the pub watching the game. Don't mind people moaning about the atmosphere because we know it's not good but you're not exactly doing anything to help are you. Wish people would stop making excuses if they are not willing to be apart of the solution

I think if S.O, H.W and B.B had all brought 500 mates each, the atmosphere will still have been w@nk.

 

Anyone who thinks premiership football is good, is on smack.

Correct!

 

But i watched a bit of inter v ac and that was shite and caught the 2nd half of real v barca, was a real end to end affair unlike when the big four meet and its just a shit old 90 mins of kicking each other and shouting at the ref!

/end of thread

Not just the football on offer, the whole experience.

I agree with the point about ST.

 

Living 200 miles away, for 5 years I continued to get a ST. Even under the dross 8-1-1 of FSA, I still went as I had already paid for my ticket, so the cost of the petrol didn't seem too unrealistic. Now to go to a game, its ticket, plus petrol etc.

 

So I miss the odd game.

 

However, we are hardly over pricing our selves. An average of about ?21 per game is more than resonable for a ST

you lot will ultimatly be responsible for your clubs demise..

see you in madrid !!! :drinks:

 

now i don't agree...

 

I actually think that you lot that still go are responsible...

 

it is you lot who have created the sterile atmosphere's by thinking it is the norm to not behind the team and sit on your hands all day...to watch football in absolute silence...

 

You have driven the passionate supporters away...

 

I don't think you will be satisfied untill you have driven the last pasionate fan out the door and you are all sat down with your flasks clapping politely and asking permission off the stewards to go to the toilet...

now i don't agree...

Bollocks. So everyone on here sits like a church mouse? And even if they did, that stops the "noisy" fans from going? WHy exactly? If you all turn up you'll make the same noise as ever.

 

As excuses for non-attendance goes, this is the worst yet. If you don't want to go, then that's up to you, to blame not going on the fans that actually go, I don't know what else to say, you should probably move to Liverpool, everyone's fault but your own is their mantra.

now i don't agree...

I thought the Birmingham fans made more noise in the first half. I for one did my best to make some noise but ESL didn't seem interested. A few more wins and I'm sure the Reebok roar will be back to full strength. :yahoo:

christ this is more of a trawlerman thread than a simple fishing event.

 

 

people who go the game spend far too much time worrying people who do nt go.

 

 

i spent 75 minutes wishing i had nt bothered and then 15 realising why i did.
