I obviously agree that disabled fans should be made to feel accommodated at games, but you're absolutely never going to make any progress with an attitude like this. Worse than I thought. Every club has their idiots but even by that standard, that's poor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I notice it less now as I don't go to many games these days, and I have muted most of the angrier fans on social media, but it always felt like there was a section of our support who almost revelled in our failures. It was always much worse at Tannadice, our away support is generally much better. Our support has always needed a scapegoat on the pitch. Right now, it's Kieran Freeman. It'll be someone else soon enough. I don't think its unique to Dundee United supporters, having said that. Totally agree with you. It’s still very evident in most forums e.g. Eddie’s army. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn’t have anything to do with Docherty and Sibbald both missing and Grimshaw not being right back would it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pull My Strings Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 5 hours ago, SGMilne said: While today wasn't exactly the most exciting performance - after the fan incident that led to the long pause in play I thought we lost our groove - I thought the reactions from the crowd today were way over the top. I've tweeted and put on this forum that I think Freeman is a player who plays like he's got PTSD (and to the conversation above, I think it's ok to criticise players performances online unless you're being personal or worse, tagging them) and I really don't think the way large sections of the crowd reacted to him making the slightest mistake was on. Similarly when United decided to shore up and let Airdrie play across their back four, the boos seemed a bit much.# For me, we never looked remotely threatened, we kept a clean sheet and we're top of the league. We aren't going to win every game at a canter, and there is room to express disappointment or feel a player is underperforming without resorting to booing. Maybe I'm just getting old Anyway, I hope the person who had a health issue is ok. I'm not sure what the booing was about. Part, at least from where I was sitting, seemed to be booing Airdrie for the awful, negative, boring play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was always much worse at Tannadice, our away support is generally much better. I've sure I've said this before, but I've long felt there's been an tangible shift in the atmosphere for the worse at Tannadice after the window where we sold GMS and Armstrong. Since then if we're not 3/4-0 up at half time at home it's not just the amount of moaning you hear, but the venom that comes with it that makes you wonder why some people are even bothering coming along, because they seem determined to be infuriated. Obviously there have been times before 2015 when our home crowd has been unreasonable to the point of unpleasantness (Erskine getting booed off when he was subbed on his debut jumps to mind), but these days it takes startlingly little to get our home crowd to turn on the team. When you chuck in an absolute dumpster fire like last season into the mix it makes going along to Tannadice a much more tiresome experience than it should be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m confused by the “away fans sneak a drum in” what do they do put it under their shirt . It’s not exactly something the steward has to search you for. I sympathise if it gives her a migraine but there’s a drum at pretty much every stadium you go to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mybitchunderprotest Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 15 hours ago, ClydeTon said: Curious what you folk think of this. Personally, I think it's a total riddy to think that you are to be prioritised over hundreds, if not thousands, who would rather a good atmosphere than a soulless one - that applies to absolutely anyone with anything. Thoughts? So because it's a Sunday morning and I've got tunes on so can do this at the same time I searched the she/hers posts and find that 1. She doesn't go to many games anyway, or at least none between 2017 and 2021 2. She likes attending concerts, presumably ones without drums, and is partial to the occasional musical (maybe muted with subtitles). My conclusion, this is not a football fan never mind a Dundee United fan and is clearly an attention seeker 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
