Mukiele

This does not mean it's ok. Especially when we're not used to having such players at our club. At arsenal he wasn't the best player that's potentially ever played for them (I'm not saying that, but a lot of our fans do say that). If we want to keep that sort of player, hurling abuse isn't gonna be what does it. I'm guessing anyway.
If a player is going to get hurt by a few words from fans then I would not want them here anyway. Should of recognised they was shite and took it on the chin and tried to improve
 

It’s not a subject that’s ever bothered me tbh mate and as far as I’m concerned if people want to leave the can whenever they see fit.

I’ve never seen the point in booing like it’s childish a fuck
Totally agree. Everyone was shocked and disappointed at half time, emotions were pretty raw. If anyone decided to leave then that’s their choice as is arriving late or not singing.

Nordi was probably frustrated/annoyed/disappointed by his (and his colleagues’) performance and a few folks giving him stick just lit the touchpaper. We all love the club and hate losing. That applies to coaches, fans, players. Nowt wrong with letting those emotions out although booing is for children at pantomimes.
 
They did both do that interview that suggests they are here for the long haul but nothing in football surprises me
Neither has given any indication they would go, can’t see why xhaka would come and give it the big un just to leave and if Nordi was going to leave he’d be unlikely to care as much as he has

Storm in teacup man. Everybody was obviously fuming for different reasons

If anything once the dust had settled at half time the second half was a better representation of how people feel toward this season

You can’t blame people one little bit for being pissed off like
 
I'm alright with players being pissed off, shows they give a shit... Better than the wet wipes that got us relegated from the prem last time, most of those couldn't give a fuck.

Acceptable for fans to be pissed off too..but..1 embarrassing half of football and boos at half time. All those that booed and fucked off are probably those that went missing in the championship and L1 days too. It was very mag-esque.

Fuck it, it's done. Let's see how they respond and let's back the lads.

I would love there to be a correlation between those booing and leaving and those who never watched us in the first division.

I doubt it however. As RLB emotions are not necessarily logical, and people handle disappointment differently.

However I think it’s immature of fans to boo particularly in context of our season… it was one freak game.

Those lads have busted a gut and I don’t blame the senior players for calling it out as not being fair to turn on them.

We are on a journey together, we lose together we win together… immaturity in the face of defeat is not a good look
 
I've seen a few teams getting a point or even win after being 4 down in my time, so the fans of the club that literally has the "till the end" motto shouldn't act like that.
Slagging off the best players like that and then talking about loyalty when they get offers from other clubs is ironic to say the least.
 
Screaming at your own fans after stinking out the place is passion and emotion now?

Reacting at A fan who's abusing you from the sidelines is showing passion and emotion, yes.
Have you got a link? I didn’t see any of this

There's a sky clip on YouTube talking to Le Bris about it. It's shown on there. It's a lot of ado about nothing tbh. One "fan" shouting abuse at Nordi like he wants to fight him, Nordi reacts like "sure, bring it on" while he's walking away, then Xhaka arrives to walk away with him. The way some folks on this thread are going on you'd think he was standing on the sidelines shouting "you're all a bunch of wankers" at the whole crowd.

Like Nordi but after all his chest beating & arm flailing infront of the East stand at the end of the 1st half his first action was to duck out of a 50/50 in the centre circle at the start of the 2nd half. He was all over the place positionally and mentally for the 2nd half.

That isn’t passion at all. Passion is fighting for the shirt on the pitch, getting stuck in, defending your position, muscling people out, busting your arse. All things substantially lacking from both Mukiele and other key players in that first half ironically
You've clearly missed the tidying of your previous post. And then if you still disagree then perhaps you need to change the P to an F.
As above, passion is displayed on the pitch and Mukiele was sorely lacking in it (he wasn’t the only one by any means). Should have tried leaving some of it on the pitch instead of bitching when he’s called out over a shit game

Passion is a personality trait. Someone has it in them or they don't. If they do, you can expect the person to express it both in their game and if they're provoked by imbeciles in the crowd.
 
i'd prefer Nordi was pissed off and a bit radgie after that - rather than than not giving a shit

Probably doesn't help when some fat bloke who isn't fast enough to get a beer from the concourse during half time is giving you shit
