We were shit. Agreed. But I cannot stand 'fans' who have agendas against certain players, and i don't understand it. by all means criticise, they do get paid a lot of money for something we would all do for free, but personal attacks? I will never forget 'people' spitting at and having a go at Lee Chapman (when he was our top scorer). It's petty, small and the only reason people do it on here is because nobody can punch them in the mouth as they deserve.

There are some dickheads on this forum but I wouldn't get hung up on it because at the end of the day the vast majority feel the same as you. When the usual suspects spout the usual shit who really cares? Just ignore them

Would never have punched him when he played for Stoke,but would be tempted to now,as he used to beat his spouse religiously and was a serial wife abuser.

we should be allowed to criticize - we pay our hard earned money & they should perform to the best of their abilities - they get paid a lot of money & should perform professionally thru out the match - thats what winds supporters up, when their head drops, or they hide, unforced errors etc - however, the criticism has to be as far as poss constructive? it's no use saying so and so is wank - he's not, he maybe playing above his standard , he maybe out of position, carrying an injury (none of these his fault) - but if they are not putting in 100% when we are playing crap, then you've got to ask if that player is worth his shirt and place and that's a mgmt issue - and there were some yesterday who were not?

So if Jack lets an easy in between his legs you want the team to take collective responsibility and no one to criticise him?
Thousands of pounds a week for that piss poor performance and you want to not criticise.
Some players were shit , simple as that, I notice you don't complain about the praise that some players got, only the criticism.

He's on about personal attacks, I'm guessing calling them a wanker or whatever, not commenting on a poor performance etc.

Of course you can say someone played shit, just not every fucking game when they deserve it or not and not personal insults

I'd say the majority of the time it's just born out of frustration, I know I found myself calling everyone wank at some point yesterday whilst swearing at my phone screen repeatedly, but at times this season it has got a bit extreme, particularly the poster who wished Marc Wilson would "fuck off and die".

Criticism and saying someone has been wank is fair enough. They are fair game in that respect.
Some of the venom towards Wilson and Diouf recently went beyond what's acceptable though however you judge their merits as footballers.

There's no shortage of dickheads in this world, there never has been, so by extension, we've got to expect a rich array of arseholes on any internet forum we choose to frequent.
That doesn't mean that we have to tolerate aggression or abuse, in any form, and some of the comments about a couple of our players have certainly crossed the line.
Lines are always subjective, but I'd be fucking gob-smacked if the vast majority didn't feel a degree of shame and outrage at some of the bilge that's been spouted by the more volatile/less mature minority on here.

I've read them all mate, it's embarrassing. Maybe we could have a new Oatcake thread after very game called 'Blame Game top 5' where people can post 1 - 5 the players they feel were 'shit or 'wank'

So you critisise a millionaire footballer , on a forum, and you deserve a punch in the mouth.theres some proper tools on this site "by all means criticise, they do get paid a lot of money for something we would all do for free, but personal attacks?" What do you consider to be 'a personal attack' ? If eg I say diouf imo is not good enough for this level coz he needs 3/4 clear chances in order to possibly get 1 goal is that a personal attack ? If one says that Arnie is so frustratingly inconsistent, just great one day and totally useless the other, is that a personal attack ? If one says that wilson is always an accident waiting to happen and has cost us a lot of points ....
