Things that annoy you about our football club right now..

[sir albion]

1,The club is way to friendly and inviting away fans into the stands after is ridiculous as the home ends are a sacred place for us.
2,The philosophy of a so called passing side that years on still has no penetration going forward and we've replaced Stoke City as the bores of all bores....will it ever change?
3,The corperate side has taken over and is threatening to rip the soul out of the club....getting more like the xfactor every season.
4,fans applauding away fans and FFS please stop announcing it as its cringeworthy
5,Player recruitment...it seems we're very inexperienced and lack the right scouting network and it seems we have no attacking coaches going by on the field activities.
6,The club continues to be to loyal to players who're clearly on a downward spiral and this is holting our progression...greer,caldy and bruno for starters.
7,Matchday tickets are bloody ridiculously high and no need for it what's so ever

Lack of pre match training for pie and beer sellers.

8. 'Fans' that don't attend games being so outspoken about why they dislike the club.

This is why they don't attend right?
Guess you're on about others as I do attend games....let's not go down that route A

1 - Get over it and grow up. They've traveled to watch a football match and support their team; they're not some sort of enemy tribe or race.
2 - This season wasn't great, but we can't always be ****ing brilliant.
3 - Thanks to the Premier League, players at this level demand high wages, and the corporate stuff is needed for income. The alternative is to watch non-league part timers.
4 - Some of us have class as well as memories of how much fans of other clubs supported us in 96/97. See also 1.
5 - The bloke responsible for the last 2 seasons has been sacked. Hopefully this will improve this summer.
6 - I agree on Calderon, although he may well be being groomed for coaching role.
7 - The need for it comes from the fact that we make a 10m loss each year, and fans are very demanding and want the club to spend 'the going rate' on players' wages and transfers. Take the travel supplement into account, and the tickets are fairly comparable to most other Championship clubs.

Hmm. Where do i start. I'm not even going to bother. This is one of those threads that will more likely get me into some pretty hot water. Staying out of it.

Half time scores and lottery numbers shown for all of 30 seconds on the big screens. Only to be replaced with F***ing adverts.

I'm ok with that.

2,The philosophy of a so called passing side that years on still has no penetration going forward and we've replaced Stoke City as the bores of all bores....will it ever change?

We were good at football, now we're not, so this is a problem. We'll have to wait until Christmas before we can judge whether we'll be fun to watch.

3,The corperate side has taken over and is threatening to rip the soul out of the club....getting more like the xfactor every season.

Seems to be bothering a lot of fans, so maybe something needs to change. Not bothering me though.

4,fans applauding away fans and FFS please stop announcing it as its cringeworthy

I'm with you sir albion! WTF is that shit all about.

5,Player recruitment...it seems we're very inexperienced and lack the right scouting network and it seems we have no attacking coaches going by on the field activities.

Something's wrong, hopefully it's being fixed, but also bear in mind that player recruitment can be a bit of a lottery. Man U bough Haha FFS.

6,The club continues to be to loyal to players who're clearly on a downward spiral and this is holting our progression...greer,caldy and bruno for starters.

Disagree.

7,Matchday tickets are bloody ridiculously high and no need for it what's so ever

Agree.

ticket prices to high so you'll attract the crash test dummies in abundance , grass a fan hot line , people who want to create an atmosphere being singled out , crap ambience in general with cringeworthy pre match entertainment ,apart from that it's a lovely stadium

All of this for me - especially number 8.

We have a had a crappy season but the constant overreaction and moaning just brings everybody down! Supporting Albion has always been a roller-coaster, full of ups and downs - we have enjoyed a few seasons of ups and now we have dipped onto a down. C'est La Vie.

The thing that annoys me most is that we have completed 44 out of 46 games, which means it's back to cricket, golf, and other lesser sports until next season, punctuated only by the fixtures and the squad rebuild which would have been started by Leon Hotshot Best except he was seen on his way to Edinburgh to travel on and sign for Fort William.

One thing really ....
