Sifu Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 So I completely missed this, couldn't leave work early enough. How did we play then? You know the Brazil team of 1970? Well we were f*** all like them. Ah well, we better smash them at St. James' next week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 That's awful to hear regarding Obertan, I hate fans like that. The only time players deserve treatment like that is when they are complete leaching wankers who don't give their all for the team. Obertan does have his limitations but tonight was promising, he showed some conviction and belief in his pace and it was useful, he caused problems. He's not a bad egg on the whole though, he won't be on a massive wedge, so isn't just here for money and he does try, it's not his fault that he may not be up to scratch. As for the game, a decent result considering the personnel we had out. I really like Anita, he looks a good footballer and was my MOTM, the rest of the starters were decent to poor. Amalfitano looked very useful, he seems an intelligent player with good feet and I was impressed with Campbell's link up play too. Things feel good at the club right now, it's great we can send out a young side and they can do a job for us like tonight and it'll be a fantastic experience for some of those of those involved too. It's simply great to be back in Europe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maybe_next_year Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 out of the 3 men behind Cisse, i'd say Obertan was the best out of them tbh. edit: tonight anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, was genuinely surprised to see him drive to the byline. We can make a useful player of him yet, I wonder what the catalyst was for him to be a bit more adventurous in that second half.

Cheshire Mag Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 2nd half was a big improvement by Obertan after a shocking 1st half. No need to go medevil on him though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
basjen Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 That's fucking harsh on Ober. Someone should make a banner or something to support him next home game, poor guy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Well if his second half performances gave him some much needed confidence (didn't see it), they will have probably knocked it straight back out of him. Well done, morons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheshire Mag Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I really dont understand why he doesnt just put his head down and power past the full back he would skin most full backs in the PL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Aye, that's ridiculous regarding Obertan like. If any of the culprits are on here, I'll happily disregard our abuse rule for a moment to say you're fucking twats and a complete embarrassment to our fans. What kind of impression of our club must that kind of thing give the likes of Anita/Amalfitano/Bigirimana etc? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alberto2005 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Don't have much sympathy for Obertan actually. I'm not condoning the fans behaviour because it's not acceptable. However, at the end of the day he gets paid a shit load of money to play football and if he's performing awful week in week out then fans will incredibly start calling you shit. Get over it. I'd let someone call me a cunt every game if I got paid what he did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Bang out of order booing any player unless he's done something to offend the fans/badge regardless of how shit they are. Yes, they've travelled far but there is no need for that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Flash Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I'm far from his biggest fan but he clearly doesn't deserve what apparently happened. Anyone trying to rationalize it isn't much better than the people who did it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEEJ Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Was at the stadium, agree with general consensus about the game, not great but did the business. However, after the game outside a few NUFC fans abused Obertan quite violently, calling him s**** etc. he looked devastated tbh. Of course he was poor, but is that really helpful? Cisse and cabaye were class, stayed with the fans to have photos despite Greek police trying to move them on It's depressing as fuck to think that the morons doing this actually have money to burn and are able to travel to watch us play in Europe.

Memphis Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Considering the fact that Obertan seems to get on quite well with the Francophones in the dressing room - Cabaye, HBA, Ba, Tiote, etc - you'd have to think they'll not be thrilled with it either. I know if my mate was getting abused I'd be furious. Not the brightest idea from the thick cunts to paint the support in that kind of light. It's a small thing that can go a long way in player recruitment, or lack thereof. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old 'they get paid lots of money, I should be able to fuck their dad and shit on their kids if I want, I pay good money to watch that shit' argument They get paid good money because someone else has deemed them worth it. They shouldn't have to put up with shit like this as part of that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
