The reaction on here to the booing yesterday has a parallel with the comments about the general election on the Guardian website forum. Like the CTID crew they are utterly unable to understand how the majority can hold a point of view opposite to their own. It's uncanny.
The boo boys are the equivalent of the teenage left wing pricks that defaced a war memorial and attacked police just because someone disagrees with them.
We could always have a ballot of season ticket holders to determine what the majority really want, you know, like we did with who runs the country.
The Tories got 24% of the vote. I didn't hear any booing accept at the end when it was for the players. You are right, I cannot understand why anyone one would boo our players, no matter how badly they played.
I thought you might say that. So I've been looking at the book "How to Explain Things to ******s" in preparing a reply. So here we go... You're moaning about fans reacting to being booed because they can't accept anyone having a different opinion to them. However the people doing the booing can't accept that the fans who sing "City till I die" and chant "Allam out!" have a different view to them also. Hence they boo. And are pricks as well. Got it now? Probs not. Incidentally, did you notice how I used 'fans ' and 'people' in my post? Probs not, so thought I'd point it out..
Cobblers. I think the fans that booed have been very accommodating, respecting your right to protest and suffering your ****e for long enough in silence, but hearing protests at the most important match of our season was an indulgence too far.
I booed at the end just a short sharp boo, I wouldn't normally agree with it but I didn't see it as booing because we lost but booing what appeared to me to be a lack of effort, there is no excuse for a lack of effort.
The Tories got 37% of the vote. Are you assuming everyone who doesn't vote would vote the way you wanted? In any case this would be a sole yes or no without alternatives or tactical voting. Or would be if our dear leader would allow it, which of course he wouldn't as he knows what the outcome would be.
Bobby was comparing me to Guardian readers wondering how the majority have a different opinion from them. I was just pointing out that just because the Tories won the election doesn't mean they comprised a majority of the electorate or even those voting. Same with those booing. They have some strange compulsion to be thought of as the majority. And yet when they had their chance to vote for Assem Allam they blew it. Only 2,565 bothered to vote. That, of course included the block votes of corporate supporters.
People on here are pretty rubbish on avatars. Someone asked why I had R2D2 as my avatar not long ago.
