What a change round yesterday wasn't it. The crowd chanting Danny's name and giving him a tremendous ovation when he came on.

I have to admit to a wry smile hearing all that, when not long ago, there were few of us backing him, and comments such as "the worst player ever to wear the white shirt" seemed to be the norm. And he was booed by (what seemed to me at the time) the majority of the crowd.

It has happened before, and I am sure it will happen again.

I remember arguing with mates about the ability of Mark Rankine (mentioned in another post today) He was vilified at one time, public enemy No 1 it seemed.

Did anyone on here boo Graham Alexander? He got the same treatment from a large section of the Deepdale "faithful"

My next bet for the "uselss, you are shit" treatment will be Chris Sedgwick. The rumblings have started already after one bad game.

My outlook has always been if you cant say (or shout) anything good about a player, keep it to yourself. They, like everyone, need encouragement not ridicule.

Agyemang got stick yesterday, and Simmo has said time and time again that he (Agyemang) is a confidence player and his head goes down if things aren't going right.

So the solution to this from some sections is? .......... Of course, SLAG him. Doesn't take a genius to tell you what it will do for his confidence does it.

Lets just get behind the lads and shout them on to promotion. If they make a mistake, encourage them, after all they are out there trying their best. They don't make mistakes on purpose.


UP THE WHITES
 
Re: Danny Dichio

yeah lets get positive you whinging buggers support the lads give them a cheer not a jeer
you can start to critisize when they all play inconsistntly again when they lose 6 on the bounce
 
Re: Danny Dichio

well said sPNEnny.

i must hold my hands up to getting on the back of chris sedewick and paddy yesterday but only because i was frustrated. i dont think paddy was totally fit and should have come off earlier than he did.
on the sedge matter, i think that tommy miller, who has been brought in to give us more attacking options, should be in the squad at least on tuesday.
 
Re: Danny Dichio

Absolutely right sPNEnny.

There were some people behind me on the BSK who used to shout "white shirt graham" every time he played the ball into the channel, regardless whether the striker ran on to score or not 😕 . With Alexander doing so well in the Actim Index due to passes completed they really must feel a little bit stupid.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion but, just as in every other walk of life, please think about the implications of what you are saying before you say anything.
 
Re: Danny Dichio

There were far far too many moaning cunts on yesterday. It's like they've never seen a game of football in their lives some of the time. Danny Pugh kept a ball in play which he should NEVER have got to. Not a single person clapped him, apart from me.

What do you want?????????????? Fuckin' blood? We're joint top of the league for fuck sake. No wonder players and managers keep wanting to leave, with some of the SHITE SUPPORT we get on a Saturday.

Hang your heads in shame, whoever you are. I'd prefer 10,000 real supporters, than 24,000 capacity, laced with moaning eegits.

Frustrated? Frustrated with what? Oh yeah - it IS frustrating being top of the league isn't it. 🙄
 
Re: Danny Dichio

I must say that I didn't expect a rush of people admitting to slagging Big Danny off at any occasion possible, but I also didn't expect my next bet comment to come true so quickly. A post has been made to that effect already.


My next bet for the "uselss, you are shit" treatment will be Chris Sedgwick. The rumblings have started already after one bad game.


Dear me .....How fickle we are sometimes.

Considering we are joint top, i cant believe people actually slag off our players, we are doing well and everyone is entitled to a bad day at the office.
We all know who these idiots are who boo n chants rubbish, what i cant understand is why they pay good money to come on and moan all the time.....
Am sure i could find something better to do with my money if alls i intended doing was to slag off certain members of the team.....
This is our team.... i said OUR TEAM.......
i agree with everyone else lets roar them on to the premier league,🙂
 
Re: Danny Dichio

RE Newspaper Joe
As for your calling for 10 thous true supporters who would not critizise wouldnt it be exiting to watch a 0-0 draw with 9999 gentlemen quitely applauding a good pass and doffing thier cap at a bad one GET REAL
football is about opinions it is the fabric of the sport when we used to average 2 thou do you think we went to watch pure football when we dipped below 2 thou for an afternoon game midweek as we had no floodlights critisizing is all that kept us returning week after week as such I feel the right to slag players off is ok
They get well paid to be in the public eye and the saying sticks and stones comes to mind
 
Re: Danny Dichio

Some good points made by the original poster.

Matt Hills been given a hell of a lot of flak this season but how cr*p did we look without him yesterday??? I hope he makes a speedy recovery cos he was having a good game and had 2 decent cracks at goal. The lad could have turned a corner I reckon.

The abuse dished out to Alexander always p*ssed me off big time cos it was all down to brown playing the guy out of position and asking him to run the entire length of the wing. Insane tactics.

Oh come on, that was always Alexander's game, the attacking threat from Carts & Alex was alex working the whole right hand side on the overlap.

He lost some pace and was less effective in that role, he has adapted his game and now plays a more central, foot on the ball role when he moves forward. He uses his head not his legs to create space for himslef now.

The time for knee jerk criticism of Brown and blaming all ills on him has long gone

If I remember rightly much of the criticism towards Alexander was pre brown's days. I may be wrong but thinking back he had a bad time from coming here.

I only wanted to point out that constructive criticism is what we need, not the booing of players. We all know that improvements can be made in certain positions, but the guys in the shirts deserve support. We as fans must have the team at heart and all the calling of players won't help anyone.

As for Brown, you are right. Why do we forget the good things he did for the club. He wasn't a total failure by any means. He just wasnt a good motivator of players in my opinion, but brought some good players to the club.
