David Kelly 1260 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 (edited) For me we were in a pretty shit position yesterday at the time he came on and we needed him to step up. Booing him wasn't going to inspire him in any way so for me it was stupid. I think he got more applause than he deserved because people wanted to react against the boos. Pardews comments were quite interesting. From what he said it certainly suggests it wasn't the club who said he couldn't play, but possibly Cabaye never went as far as saying he wouldn't play. Perhaps Cabaye told him that his focus wasn't there and he made the decision not to play based on that.

Slayer 3 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 It's clearly not in the best interests of the team to boo your own player what ever has gone on especially at 0-0 with all that pressure to get our first 3 points of this campaign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChezGiven 0 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 "It's my ticket and I'll boo if I want to" It's fucking pathetic and basically stupid in the circumstances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Had a disagreement with the Bell ends sat by us booing. Reckoned they wouldn't celebrate if Cabaye scored. They were less sure why he hasn't been fined if he has refused to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 46023 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 If they're still attending, then by definition they're incapable of intelligent thought. So no great surprises that they're booing their own players onto the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTF 7485 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Sucker punch @ Happy Face. Booing your own players is silly, sitting out because your head has been turned is also silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps Cabaye told him that his focus wasn't there and he made the decision not to play based on that. Cabaye will have played the mentally not in the right place card, which in my opinion is as good as going on strike. To be fair, I'd have accepted it for the City game, but not west ham....

So no great surprises that they're booing their own players onto the pitch. Only the fella on strike and its a bit harsh to say all match goers are thick. Maybe they are more intelligent than you and know you have to experience the lows to fully appreciate the highs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they are more intelligent than you and know you have to experience the lows to fully appreciate the highs. That kinda implies those staying away haven't experienced any lows and are baling out because the team isn't doing well which in my own case and a few I know in the same boat is complete horse shit, in fact I'd say they've witnessed a lot more shit than you yourself if you're under 30. (By the way, I'm not implying those going are more thick than those who are not, we've all got our own reasons and thresh holds). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChezGiven 0 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 He was injured. Didn't play for Liverpool until March. He hadnt played for 4 weeks, transferred and there was a question over his knee or whatever. So it was mid-feb and 6 weeks since his last game before he was sorted. Too much of a coincidence for me that an injury preventing him from playing for a month for us could be resolved in a matter of weeks of a £35m transfer. If he played by March he was back in training by mid-feb. So he was basically fine within a week or two of the transfer. Bollocks tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're suggesting Liverpool made their biggest signing of all time sit out for five weeks (collecting a reported 400,000 pounds in that time not including sign on bonus) with a pretend injury?

Andrew 4856 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 and if he hadn't played he'd be protecting himself from injury at this point Cabaye and Pardew may as well just :suicide: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 21983 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 He stayed at the end and applauded the fans. I clapped, I like him, and understand if he wants away. Really hope we keep him though and he sees out this season as no way is he being replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonTheMag 4 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 If he does have to go, I'll be much happier if he goes to PSG than Arsenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essembeeofsunderland 811 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 did you clap because his head was right which allowed him to play or because of his performance.If it was because of the former then did you clap every other player individually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
