The three grown men at Villa, would you say under the age of 30?

Probs over 35....I tried not to take too much notice

I'm not condoning any of the behaviour you've mentioned, in fact I find it reprehensible, but you're focusing on a minority element of our support.

Yes discontent is growing within the fan base which is spilling onto the overall atmosphere, but most fans are just vocalising acceptable grumbles.

Not focussing, just telling what I heard/saw and saying there's no place for it. Of course the very vast majority aren't like that.

Likewise at Villa a few weeks ago three grown men chatting racist filth at our own centre-forward fuelled up on ale and something more recreational.

They need a good piping down.

But the only record that apparently matters to the pro martinez crowd is the 72 points one.

nothing else matters, simple things like other facts get dismissed as irrelevant, team progression starts to become evaluated in terms of cup progression instead of the league, home record gets dismissed for the waya record.

the pro martinez crowd really have bought into martinez hook, line and sinker, they even start to speak like him now

So let's get this straight. You're blaming fans?

Just asking. Certainly sounds like you were

I don't know how he's got that from your post.

Think sun stroke mate, plays havoc with some people, the drink of water and lie down should help him sort it out

well let's put it another way. From what you've said you seem to think loyalty to the manager might have a negative effect. Is that right?
Don't know why the hostility. Thought we were all going to agree on something. Fans can have an impact

It's true! The desperation to remind others of meaningless past 'glories' reminds me of les mcqueen off "The league of gentlemen"

'Ere, aren't you...

Les McQueen? Yeah...

Wern't you...

...Rhythm guitarist in 'Creme Brulee'? Yeah...

Hang on, didn't they...

...Come second in the regional heats of eurovision song contest? Yeah.

It's embarrassing this blaming the fans, a sign of absolute desperation.

Nobody is blaming them. They just contribute to the problem. I quite enjoy the over the top responses to the 100% true fact that the atmosphere is not at all helpful when we are not doing well. The exact can be said when we are doing well...they are great.

Shame they can't look beyond their financial support to do their own work to actually support the lads on the pitch when they need a lift. The boos, groans, and negative vibe only improve the opponent's confidence whilst draining ours.

I guess we can only be arsed in a Cup QF, or if we are 'wronged' by a Mirallas red cad.

While I understand the frustrations...the negative stuff has one place...at full time.

The rest of the match is all about trying to help the lads on the pitch. Lift them when they are down, don't slate them. It's couter-productive for what we all want.

Having a pop at the home support might be unpopular, but IDNGAF...we could have Big Bird or the Cookie Monster as the manager...the players will respond to the crowd...the 'supporters' do make a difference make no mistake.
