exactly.. getting a fan ejected for chanting ... AVB, HTFU

 

[WiganSpur]

Nothing in this, it was probably just a distraction more than anything

 

[Spurger King]

They can't eject someone for that can they?

AVB better grow some balls. I give it less than a month before he'll be trying to get a few thousand of our fans ejected for chanting the same song.

I'm sure that this ginger kid is my flatmate from uni....weird.

Hold on, you're not seriously taking the side of the tromso fan when you haven't heard AVB's side are you? You only have the word of this tromso fan what was shouted.

Why not, seems to be the way of things at the moment, surprising really that when Redknapp did the same thing to fans nothing was said.

Rdknapp has done the same thing on a couple of occasions, as it happens he was not ejected but was offered the chance to go elsewhere in the ground.

Whether it was Harry, AVB, or any other manager, I'd expect them to put up with it. Obviously there could be more to it, but if all the fan was chanting was 'you're getting sacked in the morning', I can't see why they should be moved or ejected.

 

[CowInAComa]

he does like making rods for his own back.

can imagine he has guaranteed himself 90mins of it every game we play from now on in.

Exactly.. the bloke was asked to be moved for 'verbal abuse', though we can't be certain, I think it's likely he shouted more than just that at AVB.

 

[teddy_sheringham_125]

Do we believe that this was the reason that AVB wanted him to be moved? Could there possibly be another reason? A more offensive or personal chant? We'll probably never know, but I'm not sure why this is really newsworthy. Let me check the author of the piece...

 

[KingKay]

Astonished that we're actually discussing this.

 

[Joeyboey]

So what happens when 4000 UTD fans chant it this weekend.

Such bad press right now...

My thoughts too. Thats whats being reported and if that is all it was then AVB really needs to HTFU. That's all I'm saying. We want him to succeed, and part of that is being able to take whatever opposing fans are dishing out. That also translates to making sure the team are resilient.

and as always, COYS....

Depends how high or low the abuse was, but my point is it should not be yet another stick to beat AVB wih when some fans favourite Redknapp did the same.

 

[Misfit]

AVB is the devil!

There. I said it.

Another nail...
