Booing at half time

Funny how you disappeared when the majority are venting their anger and disagree with you and your band of merry men. You posted and insulted me thinking everyone would join you in condemning me but as you read this then you'll find you're in the minority group. Waiting your reply?

Certainly, i'm back from work now.

Unlike you, I dance to my own tune. I prefer to look at things from an objective angle, rather the knee-jerk reactions of you and your continually angry cohorts. If people choose to join in with any arguments then that's fine with me - if i'm on my own then it's all good - i've had many arguments online and you're no more important than the previous. I personally couldn't give a shit if i'm the only one with my views, or if i'm one of a million - fortunately i don't require that level of validation to get by on a day to day basis. You may do, but then we all have our crutch to get us through the day. Some have alcohol, others have booze - you have unsubstantiated and blind anger.
I prefer not to live my life reacting like a child to every potential negative - as a sufferer of depression if i did do that then i'd probably be dead by now.

So there's your reply. Feel free to come back at me or not, i really couldn't give a shit.

Didn't boo myself, but I think everyone has a right to let their feeling be known. The booing wasn't just for today's performance I would imagine it was for the totally negative home displays for the most part of the season!

Three cheers for all the idiots that think you should never boo the team and should never leave the stadium until you have clapped off all the players 5 minutes after the final whistle. Suspect their the same people that, having been served up a plateful of cockroaches for £20 a head would, when asked by the waiter if everything is fine, reply that it is perfect!!!!

The first few minutes today looked promising, two shots on target. It then went downhill rapidly. The crowd start every game getting behind the team but on a performance like that, atmosphere soon evaporates.

People pay their money and they are entitled to voice their opinion. Perhaps we could see a reaction from the players that will get the crowd going, but, let's be honest, we don't.

Couldn't agree more.

I think you will find that the booing is coming from the plastic fans we have been telling you about for many seasons that you have denied having. So many threads on here moaning about fans leaving early every week is another clear indication. The sooner you hunt these down and get in true supporters the better for your club.

Great victory today, yet, you have to come to this board, sad!

Think the problem with NSC (especially with threads like this) is people seem to think there are only two options - The extremes. As hard as it is to believe there is something between "Oscar should be backed unquestionably, no matter what happens" and "Oscar should be fired... Fired from a cannon all the way back to Spain."

I feel for the bloke. He's came in and had to fill the void left by arguably our best ever manager. He's had nothing to spend, and has been bitterly unlucky with injuries. I have no doubts he's an excellent coach who will probably go on to have a solid career as a manager.

HOWEVER, some things are inexcusable. 39 goals in 38 games is terrible, no matter how you look at it. At one point today we won the ball with about 20 minutes to go. We went to hit them on the counter and couldn't because we had 11 men in our half. I'd be annoyed if we were playing that defensively at 1-0 down away to Man City or Liverpool, but to play like that at home to a team who are below us in the table? It's a joke and sadly Oscar has to saddle a lot of the blame for that.

Am I saying I want Oscar out? I don't know myself. All I know is something needs to change because today was a low point for me as an Albion fan. I'm a 3rd generation Brighton fan, I went to my first game when I was a month old and have been all over this country to watch us play. I'm too young to remember the really dark times BUT I've seen some pitiful BHAFC teams. Today being my Low-point as a fan is not the moaning of a JCL who isn't used to us losing.

In that case, why was today my worst moment as an Albion fan? Because when I saw us lose to the likes of Crewe, Walsall, Luton, Kiddy, Southend etc I was upset, annoyed - even angry at times.

Today though? I was struggling to care by the final whistle. I just wanted to get out and go to the pub. This current team has sucked all enjoyment out of football for me. I love this club to bits, but something has to change.

Seagull on the wing · Mar 30, 2014

If people pay money to watch the game they have the right to express themselves how they see fit.Oscars style would work'if you had the right players' playing out from the back is OK...but please PLAY OUT and not keep passing from goalie to left back...back to goalie...out to right back to goalie Ad infinitum...I know the idea is to draw the opposite side forward so they leave gaps....all they have to do is sit back and watch us play ping pong....you will never score that way,last few home games have proved that.
Next thing is for those who shoot at goal to change their boots from shovels...'Sake a goal is 8yds wide and 8ft tall...surely they know how to keep a ball down they are professionals...you keep your weight over the ball and do not lean back. Ulloa is a great header of the ball and can get the ball,hold it up then get a shot in but he is never a dead ball specialist.
Noticed today that when our players got a knock,they stopped playing and looked to the ref for retribution thus taking themselves out of the play...and play went on and left them strandedplay to the whistle lads.
Kazenga makes a lot of space....he cannot do it on his own...halfway through the second half no player has made a run to keep up with him...Boro' had three players on him at times...they knew there was nobody he could pass too.
Corners...the amount we had....which all sailed over all the players to the opposite side...er! penalty spot is a good place to put the ball.
It's puzzling really...we lose to teams below us,yet beat Burnley,Leicester,QPR.
They still and always have my support but give us something to cheer please.

I pay to be entertained. I have not been entertained this season.

Booing mentioned in write up of game in Football League paper.

Excellent summary

Was quite surprised people were booing at HT, very poor in my view.

Whoever was doing it should **** off and never come back. Absolute retards.

Without trawling through the whole thread - But agree 100%. I felt ashamed to be an Albion Fan when I heard that. Those morons need to get a grip of reality. Yes, it was a lousy performance yesterday. Thats football. We're on a bad run at the moment. It happens to many teams. How many games had Forest lost on the bounce until their draw yesterday? We're four points outside the play off zone with a game in hand. Not about to be relegated with barely a whimper.

It wasn't pleasant viewing yesterday. It was a poor performance in the first half but over the years I've witnessed plenty worse. Plenty! We weren't even losing! What message did that send to the players when hearing that as they trooped off at half time?

Another numptie to appear.

Only a numpty spells it 'numptie' and spells 'negative' as 'negitive'!! :dunce:

We are playing crap at the moment (sometimes), but its not like we are loosing week-in week-out.

Plonkers.

If I was there I'd have Booòoooooood. I'm surprised it's taken this long to be honest and why don't you **** off.

I'm glad you weren't then.

If the players actually performed as badly as some of our so-called supporters, we'd be in a relegation battle for sure.

I have been SUPPORTING not just watching BHA for over 65 years and if the players are playing bad and the management are making apparent ridiculous moves with no liklehood of solving the problem, please tell me how a supporter can express his displeasure other than by booing.

Make a banner and hire a plane?

No suggestions as yet.

Hometownglory · Mar 30, 2014

Firstly I didn't boo but this whole moaning about it is so tedious. Get over it, we have shown no fight in the last few games at all. Maybe that's where the frustration is aimed at as apposed to the defeat and league position. I want to see this type of passion coming through my team....this is all that matters!

Puppet Master · Mar 30, 2014

I'm assuming those who decide to be so vocal in condemning the team also sing their hearts out non stop for 90 minutes and do their best to help lift yhem?

No, I thought not.
