Spending thousands of pounds over the years, travelling all over the country and even to the away pre-season tours abroad, you have the audosity to call some of us part timers? get a life pal! Some of us have commitments (i.e. I'm in the forces), some people HAVE to work, HAVE to look after loved ones etc etc. Doesnt make you or anyone else a lesser supporter of our great club does it!

STA-BS14 Posted September 15, 2007 Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 some people play football on saturday afternoons, an attractive fixture on a tuesday night is bound to attract more numbers, unfortunatley i train on tuesday nights so wont be able to make it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zookeeper Posted September 15, 2007 Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 i guarantee that at least 95% of the "moaners" are season ticket holdersMy experience of it is that those extra few (of which I'm normally one of) moan more than those people that are accustomed to it on a weekly basis. Of course there are moaners from every segment of the ground but it always feels like the "part timers" expect every pass to be inch perfect and for us to walk over teams. I blame the fact that people big up games on forums and in the papers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I blame the fact that people big up games on forums and in the papers.Whether season ticket holder, Gold club member (Think thats Sextoys club in the williams?) or an infrequent visitor, each and everyone of us paying supporters are entitled to our opinion, however ridiculous or irritating it may seem (I agree there are a small number of morons but thats beside the point. We are not alone I'm sure). Some people will groan, even when we are doing well. Thats life mate.Yes people 'big' up games in the press and on forums, but why not? Some may say we are 'punching above our weight currently'. Every game in this division is a big one for us. We have a press happy manager and a performing side at present, people WILL 'big' up games. The players and staff are professional enough (IMO) to not let that affect them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megansdad Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 why is it some of you get upset? - not sure he was referring to you as a part timer or classifying what he maent by such a title so a little odd for people to assume he meant them and then say why they shouldn't be considered in that category!!Given it will probably be a sell out (it certainly should be) there may well be some who aren't regulars..what is certain though is that there will be plenty who like to moan despite us being top of the Championship!! Let's hope there's more to cheer and we stretch our lead at the top! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

formerly known as ivan Posted September 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 sorry, didnt mean to cause so much offence by using the term 'part timers'. this has always been a term used.my main point was for those who don't usually attend, who saw the result against coventry, turn up and expect 3 points on tuesday, not to get on the teams back if things arent going how they expect.we have had a good start to the season but eventually we are going to lose. if that happens of tuesday i would like the see the few extra thousand fans to come back again on saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was simply saying "Get behind the team" and "Be Patient". We are punching above our weight at the moment and we must remember that.Yeah, people will moan whatever the result, but this is what happens at every ground around the country. The problem is, is that City do have a lot of "fair weather" supporters who pick and choose there games - so it can appear frustrating to those who turn up to watch every game and positively support the team, when there are those who go down for the West Broms, opening games and big cup ties and constantly moan.
