Apparently in Ralphs second part of his presser, Ryan is back in training tomorrow.. Soon to be reintergrated with the group.
That's good news. Hopefully we'll see a rejuvinated Bertrand under the new regime! Guess if he's only just back to training, it'll take him a while to get back to fitness, he's quietly been out for a little while now.
It will indeed be very sad if Fraser has indeed suffered from some kind of depression and/or breakdown. If he was able to and up to speaking out either now or in the future, then he should. Even if it shamed our club (or previous personnel). I wish him well. If true, I’d hope there would be a few boo boys who take a long look in the mirror, but I doubt it.
Sorry Fats but what a load of bollocks about the boo boys looking in the mirror. You make out like anyone who may have booed did so knowing he had mental issues, which is nuts as this is still only a rumour. People, whether you or others like it or not, have their own right to handle dissatisfaction their own way, if that’s booing that’s up to them. I’m not saying I agree, but it’s their choice, and no booing was in the knowledge of potential mental health issues.
Next time a friend of mine is suffering from depression I’ll rest easy in the knowledge that my continually running him down can’t have played any part in driving him or her to breakdown.
Even if he has depression, I still call that bollocks mate. I feel sorry for him for sure, but there could literally be thousands of reasons for it. **** me the world would stop if we all got offended at everything. We certainly wouldn’t all be chatting on here either. I’d also imagine he gets far better quality of support and help which is mere mortals can’t afford, either financially or having time off work to deal with. I just can’t believe that anyone who boo’d is culpable or should possible reproach themselves. Best we agree to disagree and I’ll put me phone away for a few hours and avoid the subject later when back on
I don't know what you do for a living Billy but let's say you worked in an office. If, every morning when you came into work the whole office booed and howled at you and said you were ****, even though were very good at your job, would you feel offended?
That’s not comparable. He doesn’t only work on match days and I have numerous hard situations with people at work each week. I don’t take it personally and i stand by whilst it’s s horrible situation for him, is is far better looked after than you or I in his situation. My OP was about I don’t believe the fans should look in the mirror over this and I still stand by that. If he disagrees with his team mates or manager, are they to blame. If he gets a speeding fine, is that to blame? I’m sure it is a multitude of things if true that contribute, but imo you can’t go blaming individual parts.
Billy have I said it is only the fans that booed him? No I haven’t. What I’m saying is that IF he has suffered badly then those fans who abused him should be asking if they contributed to it and if they did, how does it make them feel. A decent human being would feel some guilt.
By bollox, do you mean you disagree with my opinion? This is just a difference of opinion, neither bollox nor not bollox. My post above is how I feel. I know that I’d feel some guilt if I’d possibly contributed to someone being unwell.
