Incredible that some folk see any sort of criticism as not being a ‘real’ fan, despite it being entirely warranted. Happy clapping as the club continues in a downward trajectory is far worse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure if this individual maybe has some issues. If so, I do feel bad for laughing at them. If not, then it’s just delusion/devotion to one individual over the actual club. I do remember the ‘real fan’ chat was bandied about a lot by these same folk during the Aitken era. You’re not a real fan if you don’t blindly support the manager. If you can’t make it to many games you’re not a real fan. Etc etc. Edited February 11 by FifeSons 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Farrell, he's ripping the pish but fair play to him for extending his own contract. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I genuinely think he believes that if everyone just clapped for 90 minutes every Saturday it would turn Farrell into Pep and the players into superheros. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Folk are complaining because they care. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 If stalking players and being a cringey nuisance, who values certain players and managers over the club progressing makes me a real fan then I’ll just stick to being a fake fan, thank you very much. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to watch Nicky Devlin at Ayr over your own team is the true sign of devotion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FifeSons Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 (edited) Quite a tough run coming up for Bonnyrigg. Not that it’ll matter unless we turn our own form around. Edited February 11 by FifeSons 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just feels like it confirms the view that no one at the club's that bothered. I'm fully aware most folk wouldn't share this view and would say there's nothing wrong with the players enjoying themselves.

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Mackay is rattled. He’s been hiding for a while and now he’s been called out he’s resorting to these defence tactics. Out of interest, how many meetings with the Trust have been instigated by Dr Shipman? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably 4 or 5. The trust agreed to have regular meetings with the club board whilst the position of trust director on the club board remained vacant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
