They’re experienced professional footballers not wee 10 year olds. Encouragement from the supporters shouldn’t be the trigger to play well on the pitch I hear encouragement at almost every game but when the team are underperforming for large periods when we know they’re capable of more, it’s natural to have criticisms Edited March 4, 2022 by qpfc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few shouts during a few games doesn’t change that fact. Win tomorrow and seven points from three is something approaching a mini-run. We need to be putting a proper body of results together, though. We’ve had the measure of Dumbarton, so far. No reason why we can’t go ahead and get another win if we apply ourselves. Would wager this being Marijn Beuker’s last game in the dugout, so sending him into his actual job with three points would be a nice sign off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiders4ever Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 I wonder if the boo boys have ever been managers or had a job. At work does your manager shouting and swearing at you improve your performance after all aren’t you a professional being paid to work well. -4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even just working environments. Dare say anyone who has played amateur football has had or witnessed an absolute roasting at one time or another. We can pretend that sporting environments are the same as other professional environments if you want, but I think I’d get the sack for shoulder barging Sharon from accounts in the corridor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gus was an absolute mad man on the touchline, constantly shouting and swearing at his players yet he brought great success to the club? The Football environment is different to a standard 9-5 job where a wide range of players respond better to someone on their back constantly, maintaining the standards and demands of what’s expected of them. I think your gripe over the boo boys is very much exaggerated.

I know them all personally, and not one of them has ever been a manager, or had a job. They earn enough to get to games at the weekend by collecting coins they find in the street and using that money to buy scratchcards. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
an86 Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 The interesting thing about the “boo boys” guff is that there was a much more significant portion of the support expressing displeasure at the end of the Montrose game from a broader section of the crowd. Barely a peep about it. Most unusual. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Vojáček Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 A setback for Josh, MacLean out for the next two and Paton out tomorrow. That's arguably three of our most important players (and best performers since January) ruled out. It's going to take something special tomorrow for us to get a win. Or Queen's will need to have an absolute shocker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or Queen's will need to have an absolute shocker. Even with everyone fit I wouldn’t be confident but with Josh and MacLean out we have absolutely no chance. Paton being out means Farrell will shunt everyone around so we have defenders in midfield and centre backs at right back etc so that also massively diminishes our chances. Up top we’re going to have to go with a combination of 2 from Stokes, Duthie and Orsi, none of whom are really a natural striker. The fact we are into the last quarter of the season with such pathetic striking options is just mind boggling to me. Duthie is far more effective out wide so I’d rather see him there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At work does your manager shouting and swearing at you improve your performance after all aren’t you a professional being paid to work well. Thankfully my work doesn't sell season tickets to fans to come and watch us work all day. We do have customers mind you and if I was doing a poor job then they (and my manager) would be quick to let me know. Thankfully I only have a few bad days a year so I can handle the criticism Anyway, what's being a professional got to do with it? Plenty of stick was given out when we were amateur at Hampden, most of it from the old boys in the centre stand. They gave it to the same scapegoats every week no matter how they performed. But they did it without swearing and they were all sitting in the comfy seats so they got away with it.....

Barely a peep about it. Most unusual. It doesn't fit the narrative. In fact the fans I was with spent the whole second half on Saturday just watching silently in disbelief at the rubbish they were watching.. Then on Tuesday the same fans spent the whole game singing and getting fully behind the team for 90 minutes. But aye, "boo boys" it is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Your Own Socks Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 What a thread this is A pitch battle about who’s the worst; a sub-plot involving potatoes and some creature called “Dreel”; QP fans swapping spit over behaviour and loyalties and now we hear Sharon’s getting banged in the corridor. And still 19 hours ‘til kick-off 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
