Guest Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Given how the crowd managed to impact him during the West Ham home game - to the point of him being a hindrance to the other 10 and (imo) feigning injury and walking off with his tail between his legs - if he starts I hope he becomes the target of relentless stick.

But the 'reception' is a bit of a laugh and having seen it in effect against West Ham, I would strongly encourage it. He was a lost rabbit in the headlights and whether he performed well for us or in some eyes ruined that by his conduct in the final year (which should not be ignored, especially that he barely walked around the pitch for us in the end), as fans he is opposition and shown a weak spot: he doesn't like intimidation.

Flagon Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 As with any player he had some great games for us and some awful but rather than leaving on a high I remember him having some dreadful games at the end where he really didn't seem interested. Aside from whether or not he would have wanted to come back and whether he would have been welcomed back he most definitely would have been a gamble after some terrible injuries since leaving us.

Bollocks.I didn't stir your words at all. Look up what karma means. The karma was how his career has panned out. It's not hard to understand that - I couldn't care less about his injuries.He was our top scorer because we were absolutely useless that season. It was hardly as if he played well, he was a detriment to the team. Some attempted revisionism going on here. Maybe if Millen had stuck with the Pitman/Stead partnership that did so well in his first season and their performance vs Hull on the last day should have secured that to be the case, he'd have actually had some success that year, instead of pandering to the means of the arrogant **** that is Maynard. Think he turned up for two games that season (Southampton/Milwall away). The fans that actually wanted the **** back in that pathetic thread last year are crawling out of the woodwork. Clearly have no respect for the club if they're willing to accept the way he treated us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have posted before that we never get into the linesmen and ref, give a linesman stick for every offside decision etc and he might just start to waver, but most of our fans are likely to nod in agreement with the decisions. I have no feeling good or bad towards Maynard, but if giving him some stick from the off, until the final whistle gets under his skin and affects his performance, then its fair game, as it should be with any other player.
