It's time to shut up.

To the board - the genuine fans do not need pleading with to back the players.

To the fans who boo and insult the players - you are not doing the club any favours. If you are a real fan, get behind the players and help then retain League status. If you want to protest, do it after the final whistle or stay away.

To the players - keep calm and do your best.

i'll bite to this first of all I am a genuine fan and questioning peoples loyalty because we don't share the same opinion on the club is abit of a pathetic route to go down. I pay just like you to watch our beloved Team. So I have just as much right as you to voice my opinion.

Not sure I was questioning anyone's loyalty. I'm guessing your opinion is that having paid to get in gives you the right to slag players off left, right & centre even if it impacts on their performance and potentially jeopardises our League status.

If we are 3-0 down after 25 minutes is it ok if a have a very quiet boo when someone fails to control a 5 yard pass?

Marley says shut up at an event designed to let fans have their say.

Fenty says we should shut up protesting inside the ground.

Wraith called us bullies.

To say I'm fed up of our hierarchy telling us how to behave is a bit of an understatement. Do this, do that, don't say this but do say that... only here, at this time, not then...

They are the ultimate control freaks. They don't like their authority being questioned. They often refer back to their wealth, as if that's the only thing needed to run this club.

They'll only sell to a buyer who understand how to run a football club, but they're the worst judge for that as none of our current board know anything about running a football club - just look at the last 17 years!

So when is officially ok to get on the players backs? this is all getting pathetic as towards fans as tho we are the cause of this. Do you honestly think anyone pays to go give them excrement from the off? Thats the whole point of watching the club to support them, but believe me if we are two down they deserve some sort of grief to let them no this is not acceptable.

This may have something to do with the snowflake society we live in today, even if you are useless at something everybody has to pretend your a world beater, a bit like school sports day where there is no winners and even the kid coming last in the egg and spoon race gets a prize.

This is my point. I totally accept the rights of fans to boo if they feel like doing so, however I don't see any merit in it. What I can't accept is the club's custodian telling fans how to behave. The board created this mess last April, it's not us who caused the current situation and trying to move the responsibility for it onto the fans is a. wrong and b. typical Fenty.

Now your jumping the gun I’ve never slagged a player while watching the game nor do I believe in a demostration during the game.

It's not the players fans are protesting at. I see no merit in getting at the players and I am always supportive.

The protest in the ground at the last home game was aimed squarely at the board and those same people were the ones getting right behind the players. The fans have been completely let down by the board and they expect people not to voice it in the ground.

So many great words...

love the life you live. live the life you love.
One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.
None but ourselves can free our minds.
The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for.
Don't gain the world and lose your soul, wisdom is better than silver or gold...
The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.
One love, one heart . . . Let’s get together and feel all right
Don't worry about a thing, 'cause every little thing gonna be all right.
Open your eyes, look within. Are you satisfied with the life you're living?
Get up, stand up, Stand up for your rights. Get up, stand up, Don't give up the fight.
