September 4, 201411 yr Theres a couple of reports about this on BN today, really sensing a difference in the way Marc Illes writes about the club at the moment. Keeping a balance between appeasing the club whose fortunes and talking points pay your wages and the fans who I'm sure are increasingly hounding him on twitter and in person at games cant be easy

September 4, 201411 yr Both Illes and Spearing are professionals and should be able to take a bit of stick. Over reaction all round I think.
September 4, 201411 yr Cracking article [/url] Are the 3 stories and fans reaction to them lifted straight from off here?
September 4, 201411 yr Fans over reacting. Yes we are doing shit but he had some days off. Used them for a weekend away. That's what people do. Get over if. Stop judging footballers by your job standards. You may not like it but it's a different world. Few drinks in town or a few in Ibiza. Makes no difference
September 4, 201411 yr I think going out on the piss is worse for a professional athlete than the guy stacking shelves Don't give me they used to do it back in the day either! there is clear evidence that a healthy life style pro longs the career. In today's environment it's poor especially coming immediately on the back of a pre season! If they already need to let off steam we really are fucked and is a sad indictment of them individually. God help us come Nov/Dec... Will the poor dears be asking for 2 weeks off in Barbados?
September 4, 201411 yr Look at the changes in diets across all sports if you want to see the effect it has
September 4, 201411 yr I've similar feelings about the whole episode really. Team doesn't play for 13 days on an International break and the non called up players get time off. I'd expect young rich lads to go abroad if told they've got some time to themselves especially after what was probably a physically harsh pre-season, regardless of how shit we're doing on the pitch. The problem I think is the PR nightmare that this and the Beckford thing have created, contributing to an already very strained situation. Those photos don't come out - or if the Spearing one was taken maybe seconds earlier when he might not have been gurning so much (!) - then there's much less of a reaction. I say all this, yet I've still not been as down in the dumps about Wanderers as I am now in a long time.

No such thing as just a few drinks there. Especially at a party called Champagne Spray. I know how unmotivated I feel at work after a day on the lash. He will be not different if not worse after a two day trip to Ibiza. He's the club captain and meant to be a role model. Having two days off to go partying in Ibiza less than 4 weeks into the season is fucking ridiculous. What a complete dickhead. He just doesn't give a shit.

Reaction? I've not seen anything about either except for on this forum. I even did searches for "Beckford", "Spearing", "Bolton Ibiza" etc. on bbc and sky sports and found nothing. There's a small story on the Bolton news site, but 69% of people there didn't care that he made a "gesture". I know how unmotivated I feel at work after a day on the lash. He will be not different if not worse after a two day trip to Ibiza. The day after, sure. We don't have a game for nearly 2 weeks, and they go the first few days of that time. I'm certain that 8 or 9 days should be more than enough time to recover. Edited September 4, 201411 yr by SnoopJohnnyJohn

September 4, 201411 yr i'm normally the first to get on the fans back for being cunts (and i stand by what ive said) but this is fucking ridiculous beckford and spearing are cunts and i liked both no problem with them having a break and going away gerrard said on sky after the spurs game he was going on holiday the next day you can bet gerrard was on a beach somewhere with his misses and kid (that's the first time iv ever praised the cunt) the problem is going ibiza and acting like a towie cunt off his chops i don't think id be happy if we were top of the league, never mind in a relegation fight he's the fucking captain and thats without mentioning his form so far this season its fucking disgusting and I want him punished oh and i think its time to add snopp to the ignore list. anyone at bwfc could hijack a plane and he'd still defend them
September 4, 201411 yr You wont find many other places reporting about Bolton apart from our local paper and the supporters forums, it was hard enough seeing broader media give a shit about us in the Premier League so theyre not about to start now. I've not seen a poll, but to be fair yeah the comments I've seen on BN have been balanced - however under the current circumstances, I would call recent days a PR nightmare. Relations between club and fans are at the lowest Ive seen since starting going in 1994 - see the atmosphere for yourself against Sheffield Wednesday and Rotherham. A banging drum and some spray paint in the North Stand wont mask it.

You are no different
September 4, 201411 yr Garp....you going the pub the night before work. You are no different mine and my works performance are flying and being a pissed head is part of the job

Stop judging footballers by your job standards. You may not like it but it's a different world. Few drinks in town or a few in Ibiza. Makes no difference when we had quality like Djorkaeff, Okocha and Anelka they didn't go out getting pissed. Now we have second rate players with a second rate attitude. Most of our opponents won't be out getting pissed.
September 4, 201411 yr They dont have a game for a fortnight and they have a few days off, what is the big deal? If it was the night before a game then fair enough. Should they only be allowed to have fun when we are winning? Dont forget, they are not fans, they are employees! Edited September 4, 201411 yr by Danny G
