Yet you're using a tiny amount of fans out of hundreds that heard different, brilliant!

Like I said, where is Tim today to condone it? Will he implement a whistle ban in the next game to ensure we don't lose more fans through in house blaming? Of course not!

I blame the team for our draw last night, just as much as they did against Peterborough, I also blame the team for 7 consecutive losses.

It's weak to blame fans on results, thus proving how low we, as fans, actually are.

Have you noticed that people don't blame every result on the fans?

It's weak to play the over exaggeration to try and make it look silly game.

Social media, just like you're claiming there is more people saying it was because of a fans whistle why we drew.

Some heard a whistle, some didn't, some heard it and say it directly led to their goal, some
Heard it and say it had no affect on the game at all.
I think the only thing we can be sure of is, if it happened it wasn't part of any pre planed
Protest, I think it was Otis said yesterday the club should issue a statement saying that.
The club will eject and ban anyone blowing a whistle during future games. Make sure
Everyone knows, put signs up at all turnstiles.
But for heavens sake, keep up the protests.

What about the Bolton fans who mentioned it? All the fans around me (and apparently others) who were moaning about it? All the fans outside the crowd talking about it costing us the points? You know this doesn't distract from getting SISU out. This is not a "blame the City fans", etc. An idiot blew a whistle and it seemed to have an affect on the game. That's the story. No need to get uppity, but it's a black and white world for some.

Its the fans fault again, some annoying pissed up bloke with a whistle this time. A magic whistle only weedy Portuguese midfielders can here.
It was expected on here, latching onto any excuse that deflects us from where the club is due to mismanagement, Tim Fisher could not have done it better.

Any news on where we are playing in 18 months? No I have heard nothing either.
Bigger fish to fry but its easier to blame fans for another goal conceded in injury time. Lets hope no one kicks Fishers car in traffic at the AT7 roundabout as he might have to pull out of talks with Wasps due to PTSD.
Click to expand...

So if you don't like people blowing whistles during the game it means you're OK with sisu fucking the club up?

You're sense of reasoning is so skewed I would get yourself down to the doctors immediately, you clearly aren't right, bring beduff with you as he's given your post a like he clearly needs help as well.

And it's the fucking whistle blowers who have done fisher the favour as they have deflected all the attention away from the sit in which was a decent attempt at a protest which has been lost in all this nonsense.

Same thing as Sixfields. The cunts that went there where very load on the keyboard but when I stood on the hill you heard nothing except the away fans.
Plenty of anti Wasps noise on here but as for taking the fight to them? Wind, piss and keyboards.

18 months gentlemen.

Have you noticed the people blaming the fans are the exact people who never attend protests, never attend fans meetings, and pretty much condone 'shit' protests as Pasty puts it.

So, my seven year old (as he was then), the other families with kids and other fans from teens to the elderly etc who went are all "cunts"? Nice one. You seem to be very loud behind your anonymous username too.

I am still waiting for the club to denounce the whistle. Mangers, Players or Boardroom. It is to much of an open goal for TF miss if it was anyway connected to the injury time goal.
I do not want the whistles any more than I would want a bell end like you sat next to me at the Ricoh as you are both rather simple and annoying, but heap the blame elsewhere. I did not see any Bolton player stop IIRC.

If you knew Justin, you would understand why he gets so angry, but you don't know him do you??. Perhaps if you come to some fans meetings you'll get to know him, and see how much he cares for CCFC and what SISU have done to a club he worships.

I don't know for certain if things will or won't happen. It's fair to assume that they will though isn't it?

For the record whistles should not have been blown during the game. It needs to stop. The protest after the game that the JHW organised and like many others, I actively supported was a relative success. Everyone behaved themselves and didn't do anything untoward. We left without being asked to but if a steward/police officer had asked us to we would've done so straight away. It was always going to happen that way.

It was the first home game for Russell Slade and three players so the JHW made it clear that the idea was to support the team and not protest during the game. They decided to stage a protest afterwards. In my opinion this was the right thing to do. Unfortunately the focus has not been on a decent performance, a half decent game or a good protest afterwards but on a very small number of people blowing whistles.

However it must be said that their second goal (and our's FWIW which is what I originally thought) did not happen due to one being blown. It happened due to two players switching off and them scoring from a perfectly good passage of play. It happens sometimes. Look at Willis' goal on Saturday. Two defenders just stood there completely still, watching him score. Was it caused by a fan blowing a whistle? No. They did so because they're League One footballers that happen to switch off from time to time.

I think I can see what you're trying to say with regards to the location of the tweets from both my account and the one belonging to The JHW. You must mean that we've both posted tweets in Neal's Green in the past 24 hours. As in the same Neal's Green where the Ricoh Arena is. The same Ricoh Arena where a casino is located that I was stood in from around midday. The same Ricoh Arena where I attended a game that kicked off at 3pm. The same Ricoh Arena I am currently looking at through the landing window at 1:15am?

The two players hesitated which allowed the ball to reach the Bolton player, by which point it was evident the referee hadn't blown up.

This is what I thought too, Tim should now ban whistles shouldn't he, it's effected fans and players 'apparently', so he has to condone it as the chairman of CCFC who suppose to have the fans and clubs best interests at heart.

I don't give a fuck if the board denounce them or not, my opinion is it was a cuntish thing to do.

It was great as part of the wider protest against sheff utd but that should have been the end of it. I also feel sorry for those who staged the sit in that this has taken the shine off of their efforts.

Look how much it has divided the fans, do you think that's a good thing? Because in my opinion a protest or an action that causes this much friction among the support can never be seen as a good thing.

I don't know Justin obviously, but he seems to have a problem with his fellow fans. They've got nothing to do with SISU. The anger should be at the owners, not the fans. But this is the contradiction here. You're complaining that everyone is "blaming the fans" yet when Justin does just that it is OK as he cares about CCFC. As if we don't. It is underlined by his "this does not apply to anti SISU fans". We're all anti-SISU, Justin.

This is simple really, some people heard the whistle, some didn't. That's understandable.
Some people think the whistle caused our players to pause and led to the goal, some don't. Again fair enough.
What is odd is the people who didn't hear the whistle and are refusing to believe there was a whistle.

Again because you don't know him, so you don't even know who he's aimed this at, I know who he's aimed it at, because I know him. Why it's been shared on here is beyond me, if he posted this on SBT then say what you want. He's aimed this at a few of his so called mates who have turned on him the past couple of weeks.

I also haven't justified what he's said either, I just know who to and why he's posted it.

I'd have a rule of thumb that things people say elsewhere (at least under a real name) probably shouldn't be posted here in order to criticise them unless they've got the opportunity to respond.

I would support a no whistle policy as they annoy. Any whistle not just models our players hear.

Fans will always be divided, Sixfields for example then the march in town, the pitch invasion is another. SISU are very good at feeding misinformation out to set things off as a diversion tactic. We all seem to fall for it.

Some fans are overtly passionate, with good reason as I keep saying the clock is ticking, while some like us sit here arguing on the internet.

I will agree on no more whistles, as they annoy. Especially with a hangover.

A lot of people (most who weren't there) are using the highlights to prove the whistles had no effect. The mix up with Reilly and lamerais wasn't shown on the sky highlights. The reason Bolton players weren't effected (another excuse being used) is because there wasn't a Bolton player close when clough scuffed a shot and then for a split second Reilly thought he had heard a whistle and stopped. Lamerais had turned and made a run forward expecting Reilly to win the ball. By the time they realised it was too late for either to recover and the ball ran straight into the path of the Bolton player who by that point had realised where the whistle had come from. Another myth is that fans whistle trying to get full time but they don't use an actual whistle that sounds like the ref do they?

Agree to be honest.

Also the name and shame of a bloke with a whistle with an image on a different site, yes a bit of a dick for posing with a whistle but can't say its him who blew it at that time.

I even agree that whistle should be banned, only because of the annoyance they cause, but I can't condone the people using them last night, I won't either.
