Swansea City v. Sunderland - Official Match Day Thread

I just posted on the Sunderland board about this, there were a few fans booing when taylor went off, probably as Taylors tackle was so rash. I agree we shouldnt have been booing the Sunderland player though

 

There was so much going on that both sets of fans were booing different things, but i saw the mackems clapping Taylor off to be fair......

 

It was Taylors fault - it was a very rash challenge.

 

Yep hense why cant blame a few fans for booing, far more were clapping him off

 

So we're agreed.

 

If you call standing there with your arms folded "clapping"! You do realise half of the away end was filled with Swans fans today

 

Yes. God knows why they were wearing red & white striped kit.

 

Were they singing Hymns and Arias as well?

 

How can anyone say there was no booing, why do you think the east stand choir were giving it large with

your a ****er
your a ****er
your a ****er

just after he got carried off

 

This is getting daft. Once and for all....nobody has said there was no booing. Some did. But to say the Sunderland fans 'to a man' refused to applaud Taylor is just plain old fashioned WRONG! Other posters have confirmed this.

Our fans booing the Sunderland player who got clattered by Taylor was equally deplorable imo.

 

Cool, sense at last, exactly the way i saw it all and yes we shouldnt have been booing the sunderland player

 

You can say what you want. I know what I saw because I deliberately made a point of looking. Where were you sitting in the ground?

 

agree...swings and roundabouts.....

 

West Stand, close to where Chico made the kick, I only glanced in that direction because of the booing tbh as was clapping Taylor off, but there was def sunderland fans flapping their hands about.

 

I'm in the South, too far away to see opposition fans, have no idea what O'shea was doing though arguing with our fans but to be fair when Taylor was taken off I did see the Sunderland players clapping him.

 

Thanks, guys. I rest my case. People see different things depending on what you were looking at and where you were in the ground. For the record I'm East central and I also know what I saw.

 

West Stand - only glanced at the fand. East central - looking directly across to the Neil Taylor incident (ie not at the Sunderland fans)

I rest my case

 

Well its settled, on MOTD you can hear fans booing and u can see Sunderland fans clapping

 

Yay.

That's right PGF I can't move my head and always look directly ahead. Can't you just accept that me and others haven't made up what we saw? What a stupid ****ing debate.

 

Yes - significantly fewer than when they scored a few seconds later
