Loyal72 12,122 Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Just now, Brubear said: The timing, the first game after Beale discussed the fact that he was upholding the standards of the club I hate to say it appears to be a dig at Beale and most others inside and outside our fanbase we see it that way. Digging out Beale while he's unbeaten is daft. If he doesn't win us the cup, sure. But now seems daft if they're actually digging him out and not just reminding everyone of those standards. Perhaps meant well but came across bad. ianferguson 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But haven't upheld the standards that matter most. Don't misreport it. Think you’re misinterpreting it tbh. Fuck knows why they’d put that up about the board the week before the cup final. They put the banner up and sang the Tillman song, clearly a reaction to the walk-in goal and being pied by Beale / Tav after it.

GA1972 9,838 Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Thought what we did last week was pathetic and no one can convince me it was the ‘right thing to do’ but that banner today is totally unnecessary Unionblue and Rowley Birkin 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clemdog 39,389 Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 I agree with it. They're allowed to make their point and will always continue to support the team. I'd argue that it's not just aimed at Beale too. Thewhitesettler and Swagger 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlippinEck 3,734 Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Is it even a dig at anybody? I thought it was about raising the standard ahead of a cup final next week...?

Negri's lovechild 14,426 Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Let's give Beale til after the cup final before bringing up the standards of the club. The guy has got us to a cup final within a couple of months being in the job, and unbeaten at that. Yes, it is likely a dig at the board (strange timing), but is clearly a dig at Beale and his quote from last week. I didn't agree with what we did, but got over it fairly quickly.

You have to differentiate between the standard of our football and the standards of actions taken by the club on and off the pitch. We should maintain the highest standards of both and just because the standard of our football performances is lower than we would all like is no reason to lower standards elsewhere.

Absolutes delusion if they think this will give the team more motivation for next week and it’s just poor timing. Jamie0202 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
