Given the way Tamworth played, could there be some psychological reason for celebrating like that? Get the opposition’s fans so wound up, it translates onto the players on the pitch etc?

Having said that, I don’t remember too many of us moaning when, say, Lewis Kinsella was pumping his fist at the Woking fans.

I don’t mind the players dishing it out, provided they can take it back.
Tamworth are surviving on tremendous team spirit and gutsy performance , typified by Creaney’s winding up antics. If we can’t deal with it, too bad, that’s the level we are now at.

Patting the management team on the back for an unbeaten run that leaves us in perilous danger is equally pathetic. Draws aren’t enough - 3 points is all that matters and we’re not picking up enough.
Agree. I do like Tommy Widds, but results currently still not good enough.

Eastbank is a very strange place to be recently!

Chanting about the chairman instead of supporting the players.
Shouting Theo Theo even though he’s mostly awful.
Clapping off the manager, coaching staff and players after just about drawing at home to Tamworth. That performance on Saturday didn’t deserve applause at full time, IMO.

We didn't win granted,but it was a decent performance !, and all the players put in a shift, so to say they didn't deserve applause
beggers belief albeit its your opinion . its called supporting your team through thick an thin and thats my opinion

I’m not a violent person at all but when these players celebrate in front of opposing fans when NOT provoked then I’m afraid they get what they deserve
