AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Why not vote in this thread? Someone described this as like voting for your worst son, but then isn't it the same as voting for the best player so far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Exactly, but people have no objection to that, oddly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted December 15, 2009 Moderator Share Posted December 15, 2009 but then isn't it the same as voting for the best player so far? Except that it's the exact opposite?

One is supporting the team and one isn't. I choose to support. Others can do what they want. So do I? I've never shouted at players at a match or booe'd the players and would never do that. However this is VillaTalk, I've seen plenty of posts even probably from you saying "He hasn't been playing well this season"...does that mean these people aren't supporting the club? No difference apart from this has a poll to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LatestConfirmedIn Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 I think there is nothing too much wrong with this thread, just poorly worded. It should be 'Most disappointing player this season' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither poll is supporting the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dounavilla Posted December 15, 2009 Author Share Posted December 15, 2009 As the original poster of this thread I just wanted to add a few things. Firstly this thread was only started to get everyone's opinions and was not intended to offend any particular player , i agree that the word "worst" should have been "most disappointing" but unfortunatly it was to late to edit it . I am curious to know of all the people who did not want to vote (which is perfectly fine), if they like myself engages in conversation regarding villa players , like how there playing and if they are playing well because thats all i was trying to chat about . I too support the team whoever is picked , i have never boo'ed villa and i never will (even barry) . Finally i apologise to anyone offended and UTV !!!!!!!!!!!! oh and i did spell petrovs name wrong too ....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No difference apart from this has a poll to be honest. But a poll such as this could be damaging couldn't it? At least to a players confidence anyway......how would Sidwell feel reading this? Don't get me wrong, I'm sure the £20k + p/w wages make it just a little easier to bear but you only have to look at last weekend, Bobby Zamora scored and then proceeded to 'celebrate' by telling his own fans to shut up....allegedly as he had been trawling the forums and was frustrated with the comments about him.....who's to say the same doesn't happen on here?

I understand what you're saying, but then why stop at this poll? Why not say any none-positive comment towards a player could be damaging? The poll title is somewhat misleading, nobody is saying he's been terrible or anything, I think this post from PatrickCousens sums it up. Sidwell, though that says more about the rest of our team than him. He hasn't been bad, he just hasn't been good. Most other players who have had the opportunity this season have been. It's not a knock on Sidwell, it's just praise for the rest of the team really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted December 15, 2009 VT Supporter Share Posted December 15, 2009 I thin people are confusing "Worst" with "most disappointing" or "worst in comparison to their relative performances from last year" How anyone could vote someone like Young as our worst player this season is beyond me. The only one on that list worthy of that title is Sidwell, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenjos Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 i voted..... take a guess Thought this was a Worst Player not Disliked player? No i voted for worst. A man who has had a defender score more than him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonno_2004 Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Polls like this aren't very helpful especially if the players use it as banter in the dressing room. It certainly isn't a boost of confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
