Zamora should carry a government health warning.

[The Godfather]

Two guys in front of me at the match on Saturday took exception to me berating Zamora.They turned on me and said "shut the f@@k up" and "zip it" amongst other choice comments.Admittedly I had given him some stick for the first 17 mins of the match.I find the man so frustrating,contributing nothing and constantly giving the ball away.I stood my ground and continued to express my opinion of Zamora.When he was eventually replaced at half time the two guys in front turned round and said " I suppose your happy now" to which I replied "ecstatic".At which point I threw my head forward between theirs,put my arms around their necks and asked if they were both ST holders,to which they replied yes.I then exclaimed "f@@k me I've got to put up with this for another 20 games".Fair play to them as it seemed to defuse the situation.Alls fair in love and war.

This brings me to another point.Before my numbers up,I'd like nothing more than to meet for a pre match drink sometime with a few of you guys on this site.Some that come to mind are my mate J (Stainrodisalegend),my one time adopted son Ted before he wanted Zamora to break his leg,MYU,Bushcelti,TWranger,Ranger77,West Acton,Loftus Rd Lad,VBlock (as that's my BLock)and others I've failed to mention.How about it lads ? To make an old boy happy.

I absolutely despise supporters like the ones you have described. Telling other fans to 'shut up' as if they've been appointed as the Stalinist thought police. If you pay your money to see the team every week, you reserve the right to express your opinion, whether they like it or not (within reason of course - no place for racism etc). I disagree with booing players, but there's nothing wrong with airing your frustration at a footballer like Zamora, who really is robbing a living.

Post #18. Couldn't agree more.

To be honest we all know he's proper sh it but if the manager keeps picking him then he has to take some blame too. We can't all be wrong!!

My thoughts exactly Harry must now see that Bobby is shot and of no use at all to us it's like playing with 10 men when he's on the pitch now.

Thanks Godfather,I wouldn't mind but all I commented on was his inability to get his feet off the ground and for a player of around 6'3" to win the occasional ball in the air,his continual losing possession and his overall apparent lack of interest.I think for a life long,supporter of 62 years I'm entitled to an opinion.

Spingbok after the game gee,good music and the chance of a shag with the white city birds.regarding bobby my mate who sits beside me was effing and blinding,but I'll support him whilst he wears the shirt.his days are numbered tho coz he is pony.

Sounds good Van,Hopefully a few more will come - it would be nice to meet a few members in the flesh.

Zamora's crocked and he knows it, I find it pretty sad that he's constantly berated, but bar Arsenal at home 2 seasons ago I can't think of a decent game he's had...

Well I wish we had more of them. The first game (vs. Swansea) last season was spoiled for me not just by our hapless performance and the result, but by some idiot nearby ranting + f***ing and blinding loudly about the fact that Swansea were Welsh. As we should all have realised of course, the Welsh problem was actually our own manager.....

Ha. Each to their own, but I've never understood abusing opposing players for doing their job well. Fair play to them. Especially when our players are doing their job badly. The little right winger got a lot of stick Saturday first half from R and S blocks Ellerslie, but as far as I could see he wasn't a bad fella, was trying for his team (and giving his own team mates some stick occasionally...). Intimidating the opposition by cheering for us, now that's another matter.....

Not all of them are from White City, might have to go their gaff further afield.

Always rated Chris Burke,a real handful whenever he's played against us.

i cant work out why he's so bad , rednapp must watch him in training and see how bad he is. he has no pace and can't win a header should be known as 'dobbin'
