Cheering when Kevin Kyle got sent off, is much worse than any of those 2 have had
I remember in the last season at Highfield Road we played Burnley. It was a shocking game, in which we were totally outclassed.
Stern John's performance was so bad, that when he got booked, a chant of "off! Off! Off!" echoed round the stands.
It was our own fans.
The good ol' days of Peter Reid, eh?
Yes, but Kevin Kyle was consistently poor. Haynes and Burge haven't been.
Remember this game, their 2nd was basically a pass from 25 yards out that rolled through our entire team and went in. Probably the most pathetic thing I’ve ever witnessed

Haynes doesn’t deserve the crticism? Perhaps you could tell me when his last good game was. Maybe it was against Luton when he pulled out the fancy flick, (the only time he’s beaten a man all season)... oh no that’s right he gave away their second goal, followed up by gifting Crewe a goal and was horribly out of place for the second on Tuesday.
Players who consistently under perform are brought to task and rightfully analysed. Hyam, McDonald, Doyle, Grimmer, all of which I’ve had nothing but praise for all season, were utter garbage on Monday. If they played in the same manner every week, they would deserve the same level of flak!
Haynes doesn't deserve to be scapegoated every week.
When he has a good game, no. Who knows, he may well do before the end of the season but I’d be mightily surprised if Stokes wasn’t back in that left back berth come Saturday. Along with Vincenti, Haynes would be the first I’d get off the wage bill.
When he or Burge have good games, people still moan at them. That's what I'm trying to say.
They also have people who support them no matter what.When he or Burge have good games, people still moan at them. That's what I'm trying to say.
those two do deserve it thoughCoventry fans love to dislike and criticise a player more than what they deserve. Some players seem to continuously get stick regardless of their performances.
Has there been two players who have constantly been slated to the extent of Lee Burge and Haynes despite not really deserving it?
I used to think a lot of the stick Stern John received was unjustified especially when Andy Morrell was hero worshipped just for chasing lost causes.
Keith O Neil deserved a lot of stick at least the Yak got on for 10 -20 seconds before he was injured
kyle(was he really THAT bad? i cant remember tbf)
Slating them on here or social media, as long as it doesn't get personal is fine. I'm a big supporter of Burge and have been on here too, so I say that without any bias.
Where it crosses the line for me is the abuse at games. I simply don't understand the mentality of thinking cheering Burge catching a cross or Haynes directing a pass out of play will help the team in any shape or form. Part of the issue could even be confidence and perhaps the manager should protect them by selecting different options, but for the 90 minutes they're out there how people think anything other than supporting them would be of any benefit. It's also likely to p*ss off their teammates who are likely to be friends as well and think why should we bother.
The one that really got to me was Murphy. I think if I hadn't had my daughter with me at times then I could easily have got into scrapes with some of the abuse and bile spouted at him for not tracking back by people around me who clearly didn't understand the game.
Sure it can be frustrating at times, but it's mostly moronic and senseless.
I think you mean Conor Thomas.George Thomas
he had a very languid style and those sort of players usually get stick off the city support who like to see people running around like maniacs even if they're not actually achieving much.

Haynes wasn't out of position for their 2nd! It's clear how little you know about football. Would you rather have a flat back 4 the moved all in one, and the LB and RB stayed this side of the halfway line? Because that's what your suggesting. When we've got the ball you expect our WING backs to get forward and offer an outlet. When we had 3 defensive players behind the ball (Doyle, Hyam and McDonald), you don't expect one to give the ball away easily and the other 2 to double up on 1 player. The fact that your giving him any part of wrongdoing for that goal is laughable. I suppose he was at fault for the cross coming over that Burge dropped and at fault for Grimmers shit head back, how about the 5 and 6, must of been his fault as he wasn't even playing!Haynes doesn’t deserve the crticism?
