Post Match UCL wk4 Real Madrid (H) 1-0

And fuck Trent, he’s gotten off lightly.

 

[Farkmaster]

Yeah, and yet Trent is getting worse abuse. A lot of it is to do with today's generation and social media etc, but I would've thought the match-going crowd would've reacted better.

I remember singing along with a more dignified, traditional anfield about how JAR just broke Alan Smith's leg. It was a simpler time.

 

[Halmeister]

Yeah, like I said, he was a proper snide with the way he went about it. And he's clearly only thinking about brand Trent with the move and the Balon Dor etc. I understand the animosity.

I'd just hoped we acted with a bit more class and dignity. It's all a bit Everton chanting rat and defacing his mural and burning effigies etc.

The best revenge is being successful. If we really want to hurt him, just move on and be even better. Karma is a bitch and there's a fair chance that it won't work out too well for him there. Let it happen and maintain our class and dignity. That will make him look an even bigger bell end in the long run. With everyone calling him all sorts he can at least justify the move to himself after the fact.

Have you ever broken up with a girl that's acted hysterically after you've swerved her, trashing your property, slagging you off on social media and you think, phew! bullet dodged? Compare that to when you finish a classy bird who just takes it in her stride with dignity and moves on to a dashing, charming hunk who's better than you in every conceivable way and you end up regretting your decision and make a twat out of yourself, drunk calling her at 3am begging for a second chance? No me neither... But still. Be the classy bird.

I'm confusing myself now...

 

[Dreambeliever]

Owen certainly drunk called us before drunk calling our ugly friend when we didn’t answer.

Along with reminding him he's a gobshite at every possible moment.

 

[Farkmaster]

I think we can agree that defacing property is a bad idea. I'm not sure why that's getting lumped in with booing.

 

[Farkmaster]

I don't remember there being quite so many people having strong opinions about booing. Maybe it's a sign of the decline of public discourse thanks to social media.

Yeah I don't like the murals either. Astroturfing support with subliminal ads isn't great

I think a little playful booing to put him off is fine. When you've got grown men screaming at him calling him a rat, then I think we've gone too far

 

[rubans]

Are you kidding me?
It's hilarious. Fuck both of them

Just glad it’s diversion from focus on micro analysis on Mo for once 😉

 

[Frogfish]

Yeah, true to an extent. But it was never as volatile as it is with Trent. When he was warming up he was getting called a rat, his mural getting defaced etc. it's a bit much for me.

Society as an entity, spurred on by the anonymity of social media, has become more aggressive. It's just a manifestation of that persona.

Update from Hansern:

Hi mate

Thank you, that’s nice.

Didn’t enjoy watching the games or discussing football anymore on the site, so just logged off for a while.

Might return at some point but that won’t be during a losing streak

So he’ll back because we’re on a winning streak now

Any further questions will have to wait - I don't like to bother scandos on FB ... they very busy half the time showing off pictures of their beautiful landscape or relaxing life 🙂
