It’s been a really poor season (again), so I wouldn’t blame fans for disappearing pretty quickly after the final whistle. On the other hand, someone like Morgan (as an example) does try his best when he puts on the shirt. He’s just not good enough at this level. It’s perfectly reasonable and for people to want to stay and applaud him and others at the end of the game.
the whole children on the pitch thing is more a moment for the players and the kids and whilst I don’t begrudge it, when we’ve had a crap season, I’d rather they (the players) just get the whole thing done quickly and with as little fuss as possible. If they want their kids to come onto the pitch and play around come back out later or something. Unless there’s a promotion or title to be celebrated, I don’t see the point
I wonder if Thomas / our new owner will be parachuting in with the red arrows, serenading us with a rendition of Valley Floyd road on electric guitar. 🪂 🎸
Well if he,s parachuting in with the Red Arrows that would sum the season up perfect.
Can't make the game thankfully. If I could I would stay and clap. The season has been crap but I can't think of any players who have not given their best. Trouble is we have too many where their best is just not good enough. Can't boo the players for that.
Now if Tommy happened to join them with his guitar...
I've often thought that the ordinary workplace would benefit if a job well done was celebrated football style.
Kissing the company logo, crossing yourself, cupping your ear, performing a back flip, whipping yer shirt off, power slides (on polished floors), looking to heaven with fingers unfurled, gesticulating for more applause, hugging your colleagues, scrapping with the rival department on the floor upstairs - and yes - once a year walk around the office perimeter clapping and pointing at the various workstations.
Wasn't there today so did this happen and did anyone hang about for it?
Must have happened but I left 2 mins to go. Had to wait on coach for good 20 mins for people to turn up. Just don't understand staying to appreciate mediocrity but each to their own.
Won't be hanging around long enough to clap or boo. Think those that stay should stand in silence with their backs to the pitch. Been a shit show of a season. Alternatively just send round AMB, Ness, Leaburn, Rak Saki, Campbell and I'll stay and clap them. The rest can do one.

Curbs stand was quite full for the lap of honour, CE much emptier. Fortunately they did it fairly soon after the end. Deano did a little thank you speech, the usual sort of thing
There will be young kids and family members present with the players if they do the usual type thing. Not really fair to boo them too, unless I'm missing something.
They simply shouldn't be there. In what other area of the entertainment business does this happen? None, because it's a nonsense.

Doesnt everyone do a lap of the office high fiving colleagues with the family in tow before taking 2 weeks annual leave ? 😉

Yet has been a better season than last!
Any better atmosphere from the people around you or no different to the season previous?

She should follow them round..

Being a mid table side for 2 years in a row in League One deserves a kick up the arse
