Just because you've lost the argument there's no need to become abusive, unless you would be prepared to say that to my face in public, perhaps in the Metrocentre for example.

f***ing hell mate give it a rest man
 
if you apply this logic of the amount of fans/noise depend on a team performance then why don't we win most of the away games when our support normally outsings the opposition and supports the team more?

if so then was the case not simply down to the Bolton fans outsinging the SOL for the full 90 minutes?

if support from fans guaranteed success then surely we'd have the same silverware as Man United but sadly we haven't

like O'Neil has said since last nights match

"“You can’t blame the low crowd for our performance. I’m disappointed that we couldn’t get through for their sake. It’s just disappointing and galling that we’ve gone out the way we have – it has nothing to do with the crowd. Professional players should produce a good game be it 100 people or 100,000 people watching them."

how come many teams come to SOL with poor vocal support but they still get the wins? yet the SOL crowd quite often get the roar up to support the lads but they still get beat?

aye the crowd can have some affect on players/team but overall they should be able to overcome it. Why did it take 28 years to beat the Mags at home as surely they are the most passionate/lively games for the fans?

it takes one to motivate another but do the crowd always starting getting on the players backs from the 1st minute?

it's up to the lads on the pitch who get paid the £xx,000's a week so surely you'd think they'd be able to put in a performance to keep the crowd behind them rather than sit in silence or even worse have them turn against them ;)

Just about every Premier League club will have a better home record than away. This is partly to do with the home support they recieve.

Lost the argument, fuck off man you dopey wanker.

Call the police then, or better still get your lass to do it. I hear you're good at hiding behind her :lol:
 
i'll say it again, forget about how bad the team were, the crowd last night didn't show enough passion to deserve a cup run. sitting in total silence just isn't good enough.

Care to explain how arsenal and man utd do well every season then?

I guess the fact that it's the same pitch they regularly play on and are very familiar with won't have anything to do with it then? ;)
 
It lies with both players and fans. Neither can say we deserve cup success after yesterday.

Stoke had 11,000 there last night
MK Dons had 6,000
Orient had 3,500
Brentford had 6500
Birmingham had 9,000
West brom had 11,000 for an all premiership tie
Blackpool had 9,000

At 17500 SAFC was by far and away the best attended cup tie last night. The blame lies solely with the players.
 
Wigan are the only PL side to have picked up more points away than they have at home :lol:

ok fair enough did they win at our place? if our place isnt a melting pot of noise how on earth have we managed to win at all?
 
Touched a nerve? No you're going off the subject as you've lost the argument.

Bring that up all you like.

I've won the argument, hence you getting abusive and starting the name caling. Good job my girlfriend isn't disabled otherwise you'd be turning on her next (not face to face of course).

You have won no argument. You're bringing up stuff that has nowt to do with this.

As for the name calling I do that religiously. Don't flatter yourself sweetheart.
 
Piston, TLR, clock stand all wanking about how good the atmosphere was at roker every game only for people who were there to shoot them down and say it wasnt as good as theyre making out. Brilliant :lol::lol:

Maybe on the computer, and of course you mocked a fellow posters disabled girlfriend over the phone in front of your marras but not face to face or in person. That's not your style is it?
