WallisFrizz Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 The boo boys will be loudest but the majority will be silent or clap a bit so it will come across that we’re all booing. I’ve got a horrible feeling he’s going to do some grand gesture that there will be no going back from like celebrating in front of the Holte End or kissing the City badge in front of our fans. City are going to be actively encouraging him to do that to sever any remaining emotional ties and cement him as theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelle Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 If he starts against us at VP I just hope all Villans would go dead silent when they read up his name. No boos, certainly no cheers, just dead silence. He's an ex player now, another club's player, no one to care about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 He’s gone on record to say being boo’d drives him on so we’d probably be better off avoiding doing that so we dont end up on the wrong side of a 7-2. Hopefully the shinsplints kick in just before our games with them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He thrives off people booing him and he is probably expecting to get a good reception from some fans. Complete silence from everyone would be best. Would confuse his little brain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I actually think booing him will hurt him because I bet he's expecting a hero's welcome. Every other ground he'll love it but Villa Park I'm not so sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, if he claims to be one of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably won't be at that game because the same time it kicks off I'm scheduled to be in the North West committing Britain's first "themed" burglary . The theme will be shitting in all the sinks. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Villa fans can’t feel bitterly disappointed at this saga, and let those feelings be heard upon his return to Villa Park, I really don’t know when. I’d almost go as far as saying the opposite. It would almost be pathetic if we (Villa Park collectively, not any individual fan) didn’t boo him. That, for me, would carry an implication of a servile resignation that I’d rather hope doesn’t represent our club’s attitude towards this whole thing.

JoshVilla Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I think he'll be booed. Not saying that it's the right or wrong thing to do, but especially since it became common knowledge that he asked for the release clause himself while telling all the fans how much he believed in the project here and wanted to be part of it. That and the fact that he left as the club is on the up and with a real chance at Europe this coming season (which I think we still do, tbh). Will be interesting to see how he reacts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think booing a player as good as Jack, who has done so well at the club for so long, who left on good terms for a record transfer fee would be pretty weird. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think booing a player as good as Jack, who has done so well at the club for so long, who left on good terms for a record transfer fee would be pretty weird. I’m not sure he’s left on very good terms. Certainly not on our terms, and not with a lot of fans, hence the bitter disappointment. And booing would be a very, very natural vocalisation of that disappointment. I can understand perfectly why you, or anyone else, don’t want to boo a former favourite player, but to say booing him would make us look pathetic is expecting far too much emotional distance from what is for many of us quite an emotional situation. A level of emotional distance I, frankly, personally don’t particularly want to have as a football fan. Edited August 10, 2021 by El Zen 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
