The idea that professional footballers give a flying f*ck about what what fans write on a message, let alone are actually impacted by what is said, is laughable.
Pros don’t give a sh*t about what me or you has to say. Some fans really do have a deluded idea of how important their opinion is
A rather sweeping generalisation. I know of numerous footballers of different standards who very much cared. I have spoken to several as well. You only have to listen to some of the ‘Orient Hour ‘ shows to hear they do.
The imaginary made up footballers that you know don’t count. When are you going to start posting under your Lucky7 account again?
I don't know them personally, may have met.a few. You do not have to know them, you can ‘know their opinions and feelings’ listening to interviews and so on. Jabo on the Orient hour for example expressed his elation at hearing fans chant his name. I had numerous conversations with Lee Steele who loved the support and cared.
In the Premier League you get the arrogance of several players but an awful lot do have a conscience, are well educated and appreciative.
Someone like Rashford , Kane and Son are a cut above the type who break Covid Rules , risk games going ahead and so on. I do not know who Lucky 7 is. Can assure you no aliases here.
I met Geoff Hurst as a kid. Now he did not care for any fan generally. Most horrible footballer I have ever encountered. Swearing at young children. Dreadful person. Now Tony Adams was a real Gentleman.

Fair enough.
My point is that many fans have an incredibly inflated idea of how much impact their dross has on professional players.

Might be because he has played a lot more times at right back. Bit like saying Johnson has won more games than Angol at centre forward
Rubbush !
He said put ling on loan & back Akinola .
Why would we put Akinola in at RB & play him out of position .
When he has played perfectly well at CB
He is a Centre Back , who can play at right back .
Does that mean because Glenn Hoddle went in Goal for Spurs.9 times
In his career, He should have been the Spuds Starting Keeper ?
Of course it doesnt !!
Love the contradiction of it. You literally state because someone's had better statistics you shouldn't play them there. I just made an observation that akinola is a better rb than our current. I don't see why u get so defensive, also isn't the reason he's in a Barnet shirt because he wasnt being played? So whose real fault is that?

When did I state anything about akinola or ling being in Barnet, I was simply saying we lost a RB to them due to playing a player out of position rather then our "stand in" RB. So then why aren't you moaning about akinola playing over juddy? Also I can Kind of see where you got the mix up hope this clears it up for you.
