We've got staff in the ticket office being abused due to the poor stock from castore
We've got Nigel being abused to the point where he goes to the other side of the ground
And now we've got our heads groundsmen mez getting online abuse over the game yesterday
I genuinely don't understand it is it a new breed of fan we have coming in due the success we've had or be we haven't been promoted but the past two seasons getting to a playoff final and nearly getting in the playoffs has attracted fans
What's changed we've always had motors but I don't think it's ever been to the extent we are witnessing this season against staff
It's uncalled for and unfair

I had the audacity to be doing 30mph in a 30 limit a few weeks ago only to be verbally abused when I got to a roundabout. Apparently I was going too slow, when I replied that I though it was a thirty, hence my speed, further abuse followed & I actually though the guy was going to tear the steering wheel from the column he was that angry. I just don't get it.

I think there is more, but only because we are attracting more supporters. I don’t think the percentage of abusers has increased. A lot of it comes from higher expectations. Had we been lower to mid table the postponement wouldn’t have meant as much. Same with the transfer window. I am disappointed about both, but try and put it into perspective, as the vast majority of us do.Elkesley Stag wrote:Rustystag wrote:What has changed about our fan base this season

I don’t think anything has changed with the fan base for years and years.
If anyone has abused the shop staff they are morons . I have not heard or read on hear about abuse to the staff . Is it abuse complaining that stock levels are low , merchandise not available and poor quality?
Nigel has been abused , see Troy Deeneys comments this week or dig a bit deeper to see Nigel’s comments, Leighton Hewitt took some serious criticism after one game and that is just one example. Watch any football club documentary with half time team talks and you know football is not for the easily offended.
The comments regarding the groundsmen are probably out of frustration and the football supporters need to blame someone. Does not make it right but it’s hardly down to a new breed of supporter. It’s been around for years.
I don’t think there is more abuse now , I think there are more people offended than previously.

Just disappointed we havn't signed anyone so far. It's not a criticism or complaint.broomo wrote:Amber Andy wrote:I think there is more, but only because we are attracting more supporters.

Why are you disappointed with the transfer window when it hasn't closed yet?
People getting disappointed before things happen or even when they don't happen at all.
Disappointed in advance. Complaining in advance. It's ridiculous.
