Fan's supportInternational football England by downeyefc (U4271165) 29 March 2007 McLaren Has just asked us to support England, and not boo the team. For a man with some history in football he must know that the fans are fickle and will boo when they're unhappy and cheer when they are. We wont get switched on and off like a radio. You cant ask us.

England players are not performing at the moment so every Englishman who has paid to watch a match has a right to voice discontent with the players

dancing_shoes (U3012959) posted Mar 29, 2007 Fans should not boo during the game. Half time interval, full time interval, fair enough. But when the players are actually playing football, they should be supported. It only makes things worse if all the players can hear is constant whistling and booing, with no encouragement to try and give them that extra boost.

The England team now is just whole bunch of overrated player don't know how to play football if not coached by a non-English. The English clubs are doing well because there are foreign players adding the important things like imagination and determination. It's time to boo the team to let'em know it is the time to wake-up and to learn how to play football.

downeyefc (U4271165) posted Apr 1, 2007 Im an evertonian, but well played Steven Gerrard, when the **** hits the fan, he seems to keep appearing, and it really pisses me off! My old man was saying this morning, that the England is picked from the top 4 teams in the country really as a rule, and their managers command a lot more respect with the players than McLaren, even Allardyce, ONeill Moyes and Jol would be well above McLaren in my standing. He's not acheived anything. Yet hes got the admiration of Ferguson, and that must stand for something, even if Rooney is acting like a spoilt brat for England. I think McLarens tactics have been alright, just that the players havent responded. However i dont think he'll have the time to improve. I think it could be a race he's already lost.

bbzemzem (U5338918) posted Apr 3, 2007 A few days back 'downeyefc' said "I'd say to Mclaren, you play well, we'll cheer. You play badly, we'll boo you. You've been playing badly, against poor opposition and we're going to boo you" - I second that!!! Comment on this article
