To be fair, they didn’t deserve any applause yesterday.
They were well beaten (as usual) because they aren’t good enough, but effort is the bare minimum required – and their body language was awful, particularly in the first half.
Everything was half hearted – even the engagement from the technical area was subdued.
They all looked as if they’d rather be anywhere than Brisbane Road.
Their attempt at ‘applauding’ the fans at the end summed up the season – pathetic.
They couldn’t get off the pitch quick enough and made no attempt to hide it.
I thought they showed contempt for the fans – which leads me to the next point.
At least the players can say they there were for the curtain call, unlike the Swann family who clearly had better things to do than watch the inevitable result of their laughable efforts at running a football club.
