I thought it was ridiculous how the people around me jeered when betsy got motm. The guy worked his ass of tonight and looked a real threat and our fans don't have the decency to applaud him for it, yet would rather moan at stupid pedantic mistakes he might have made during the match. He's a top player who will have an affect on the team this season and he needs the full support of fans.
You are right Jenny, we shouldnt moan as much as we do, it is disgraceful that some fans jeer or boo players. All I can think of is that its the pressure of playing at a higher level
totally agree theblues. betsy was excellent tonight, and people who jeered clearly have it in for him and cannot accept that he can have a good game. one of the reasons he looked so good was probably because he was back on his natural rigth wing as oppose to the left. i think he should certainly be in the squad for saturday, but he probably wont be in the starting line up.
You're watching us closely arent you? I suppose 'glamour' games against Burton and Oxford must be pretty mundane
Betsy played well last night, not MOTM but certainly no worse than anyone else out there. He did his usual frustrating thing where he hesitates too long before shooting or making a pass. But he also did what he's good at, by being an outlet and carrying the ball forward. He also tracked back well and got some good tackles in. Unfortunately there are a lot of morons behind the goal who don't understand this. I presume Winfield is vice captain now. I noticed with Gaz not playing he had the armband instead of Betsy.
It sounds like we stand in a similar area, as I heard that nonsense as well. He makes exactly the same mistakes as everyone who plays for Wycombe, but for some reason he gets singled out for abuse. No idea why, he has spent a lot of his career with us, scored and created goals evey season, and has said how much he loves the club and its where he feels happiest. Ok he doesn't always track back and he is not a tough tackler, so what!? I enjoy having someone who runs at people and trys to create, and we are in LEAGUE ONE afterall, if he had no weak points he would be at a higher level.
