Thread: West Brom number 15s goading of our fans after their second goal.

  1. #1

    West Brom number 15s goading of our fans after their second goal.

    What was that all about.
    Surprised no one else has commented or did I miss it.

    Very unprofessional and stupid.

    He will get his comeuppance if he continues in that vein.

    Austin wasn’t it? All a bit childish, made himself look a bit of a tit. Trust him to get the bloody third though!!

    Why do football fans always get so annoyed about players giving it back a bit?

    Was he getting any stick from us? If so, it passed me by.

    Possibly not but fans don't usually require an invitation to give out stick.

    I don't mind players winding fans up so much, same as most chants, it's just banter and needs preserving.

    The fans moaning about players winding fans up are the same ones who complain about the sterilisation of the game.

    It’s a laugh isn’t it, if Charlie Austin winding you up after scoring a goal makes you angry maybe going to football isn’t for you.

    One of the best non-city things I remember is Adebayor slowly running down the pitch to celebrate a Man City goal in front of the Arsenal fans just to wind them up even more.

    Absolutely loved that. The anger from the fans is incredible, I just can’t imagine letting something related to football wind me up that much

    Hang on. I'm asking what it was about.
    It's very unusual I can assure you home fan armchair warriors.

    What got him to react like that.?

    I wasn't wound up by it though.

    You’re talking about him getting his comeuppance for doing it.

    Well done on buying a ticket to watch football btw, some achievement not matched by many

    I remember Scott Murray running the entire length of the bob bank doing the ayatollah after scoring for Bristol City once. As annoying as it was I mostly felt fair play mate

    That was December 2001. Not much Christmas cheer going on after that or when the final whistle went as I recall 😂

    I’m sure someone will tell me otherwise but wasn’t that the last 1500 kick off between us and Bristol City?

    Utter carnage outside the ground!

    As you say mind I did find it quite funny the balls on Murray 😂😂

    Back in the day old Gary Neville was a bit prone to gestures and goading Scousers and Gunner fans.

    It also provided City fans with the opportunity to retort with ‘Murray do the ayatollah’ when we knocked them out of the play-off semis not so long after. Good times.

    Charlie Austin got plenty of abuse from our fans near the front. After the Baggies scored their second he gloated and pointed at those who had given him some stick. Then scored the third down the other end later on. Reminiscent of Hazard getting some hassle at Chelsea and then running over to our fans to celebrate. At least Austin didn't get anything thrown at him. He overdid his goal celebrations but at least it was at the other end of the pitch.

    Thanks. That makes sense now. You are right as from where I was standing he was looking and gesticulating a a particular section of our support throughout the goading.

    Didn’t notice it to be honest.
    As said above Scott Murray is the champion when it comes to celebrations against us.

    Just a laugh and it was good to see he was a Bluebird deep down 😂

    If we're going to deconstruct the relationship between fans and supporters - one example brought up in this thread being that fans have to recognise that players are going to give it back some - then part of it could also be players recognising how frustrating it is to see people on mega contracts dive and cheat.

    I hate diving but if you're going to go down that train of thought you could argue that they're paid that mega money to win not be gentlemen

    Charlie Austin is a known cokehead. No surprise he was getting a bit excitable.
