Those used to be my sentiments, Silver, (ie the effect it might have on players' morale). But this lot probably need a kick up the arse at times, and it's exactly the same at any Club they might have come from, and any Club they'll go to. It will be water of these ducks' backs.
Players of old would stay all night, signing autographs for their young fans, but today's players see themselves above their fans.
There are exceptions, of course, and those exceptional players will understand fans' despair. (eg Morrison's frustration with Berahino!)
I therefore use the Forum these days to express my views, and get it off my chest. Let's continue to praise the blokes who give their all, and show our anger when players aren't upto it. I'd expect it if I was a player, and I'd probably smirk and say "What do you lot of losers know? What car do you drive?" if I got slated.
Come on, Silver, you're a great poster, and we look at your posts with great interest. We never totally agree with anyone, and that's probably a good thing!
