Riseley We are all keyboard warriors to a certain extent. Who amongst us would be brave enough to call Maguire a 'big girl's blouse' to his navel?
Some of us may be as tall as him (almost!).

Alan PartridgeGav Regardless of whether he's missed the point or not, it's moments like these that keep our Dave near the top of my preferred RFC players list.
You might not agree with what he says, but at least he says something. It sparks debate in an otherwise dull time and gives him a personality, something which too few footballers appear to have.
Agreed but he won't practise what he preaches. Will Kitson go out of his way to meet fans that have different views to him? I somewhat doubt it.
Reading the whole article has ground the gears a little bit. I think serious questions were rightly asked 2 years ago. Why and how did we go from a team challenging from automatic promotion to a team that couldn't beat Rotherham? How did we finish 7th? Why didn't Coppell and the rest of the board act in January when we couldn't score goals? I personally have liked Steve Coppell from day 1 but I could full understand why others didn't.
You look at last seasons signings (as fans, we don't know an awful lot that goes on) and with Lita apart it looked as if we'd brought in a lot of 'squad' players. We hadn't heard of Doyle and Long, Hunt had been released by Brentford. Watford weren't too fussed about losing Gunnarsson and Makin and Oster had been released by other clubs. As it turned out they were all masterstrokes but that's what fans talk about. 98% we talk bollocks and haven't got a clue about how things are run or what the club does but because we are passionate about this club we talk about them anyway. Desperate for the team to do well, that when it doesn't go well you look for scapegoats, seems to be a British trait.
People react to things differently it doesn't mean they support the club any more or less than others. I have a laugh and a joke at Gordons Cumming who I think is a bit negative but I know he would have been bloody delighted about last year like all the rest of us!

JamesH Fair play to him....
If I could read on the internet, discussion forums slagging off my attitude or my work when I had never even met the people then I would get pretty fed up too.
That said, these places exist for disccusion. I am sure Kitson understands that but just gets frustrated by the more vitreolic comments.

A quick look at my pay packet and the smile on my face from playing the game I love everyday would soon cheer me up if I were in his shoes!

Unfortunately he does a job that is viewed by paying people. Therefore it will be discussed by them as well in public. It is going to get worse this season.

Tilehurst RoadAs long as it's nothing like the Harper scenario I've heard about from a few years ago.Finch Royal I'll be having a word with Kitson in Sweden. Then we'll see who the real fans are

We're in the Premiership now, so who knows? Just hang about the team hotel and keep Max Clifford's number handy.

retired aggro I think Kitson's a rubbish player, no where near Prem standard. And he's ginger.
