People at the match were whinging as usual. A lot of them don't seem to watch/understand how the better teams play, from Man City down. Passing the ball backwards is permitted and is certainly not a criminal offence. The pitch is dire but many can't see it. Study Browner's free-kick routine after their keeper handled outside the box. Usually he shoots direct and has scored. This time it bobbles towards him, making him break his stride to control it before mishitting the shot under pressure. (see this on the matchday extended video) I always enjoy watching the football at the Mem, both teams, not listening to the Jeremiahs of life who get exasperated cos Rovers don't win every tackle, every throwin,etc. They seem to want to watch only 9-0 wins.

I watch a lot of non-gas games and can honestly say the moaning at the Mem is no different to most other grounds up and down the leagues.
Its a British pastime, forums are no different either although some on here seem to think differently?

Social media amplifies everything so it seems worse today but I still remember there being moaners on the terrace even in the glory days at Twerton when Gerry and the lads were performing footballing miracles week in week out.

Absolutely correct. Watching other football including lots of PL matches one of the common factors is that fans moan. I listen to Bournemouth fans moan constantly, esp in a first half, when like us they go behind and have to wait until their manager sorts them out at ht. Players aren’t good enough, can’t tackle, can’t pass, referee’s a cheat and the worst one they’ve ever seen, the opposition are divers etc. etc. Considering where they are it’s laughable, and I usually do and tell them to listen to themselves. But fans are like that everywhere even the non league stuff I see. UTG!

The thread title is a gross exaggeration.
We ground out a well earned point against a well drilled side, that put on as solid a defensive display as any club who have visited this season.
What did you expect? Play them off the park?
It was a battling, industrious display. We did well against good opposition.
