I'm a firm believer in attacking the post, not the poster. I have said that people turning their back on Rovers due to results are "Plastics". I haven't singled out any individual as a plastic. You are being difficult here and it is on purpose. You have chosen to call fans who don’t go for certain reasons “plastics” on a thread where people are giving those very reasons for not going. Like it or not that is attacking the poster. That might be my autism coming out. I cannot read between the lines like other people. Attack the post, not the poster to me is very literal. So to me, I haven't attacked any poster.

Luckily I am on antidepressants. #bekindinyourcomments If that’s true I’d have thought you would be more mindful of throwing abusive terms like “plastic” at fans who don’t follow your ideal definition of what it means to be a fan. What is your definition of a plastic fan?

I've just asked eric and I'll ask you the same question. What is your definition of a plastic fan?

What is your definition of a plastic fan? Someone who supports a team PURELY down to their success on the pitch. Doesn’t live local to them. Has never been to the ground. Has very little knowledge of the side they follow. NOT someone who’s done the hard miles in the past but has decided that constantly being served up crap in a substandard stadium for overinflated prices isn’t for them now.

I have answered your post already

I've just asked eric and I'll ask you the same question. What is your definition of a plastic fan? But people literally expressed how they fit into your generic dig. Rather than showing empathy or understanding you repeated that people who think like we do are plastic fans, thus making it a specific dig.

Has very little knowledge of the side they follow. NOT someone who’s done the hard miles in the past but has decided that constantly being served up crap in a substandard stadium for overinflated prices isn’t for them now. So we agree. Anyone turning their back due to performance on the pitch is plastic.

You seemed to have missed the word purely, even though he went to the trouble of putting it in all caps.

Anyone turning their back due to performance on the pitch is plastic. Nope. We don’t. We still support Rovers. We still go to games. We have just decided that it’s not for us every week. We never started supporting them PURELY down to their success. You have conveniently ignored the rest of my post because it doesn’t suit your argument.

You got a lot of sh.it on here for being against JB. I can understand how that could get you down and lose your mojo. Great thing now is that he has gone and lots of his fanboys have also disappeared from the club. We've even got picnic tables in the fanzone now.

Yeah, but I can't return now because I'm not a proper fan any more and I'm scared that the big boys will call me a plastic. 😞
