Valencia Ultras Abuse Players At Training
-
Valencia players were abused by some of the club’s ‘Ultras’ as tempers boiled over on Wednesday.
The fans, furious at the clubÂ’s 4-2 defeat to Levante on Saturday, shouted abuse at the players and hung banners around the training pitch.
They called the players "money-grabbers" and suggested that they had humiliated the club.
Striker Fernando Morientes and David Albelda were targeted for special treatment and had to be restrained by team-mates as insults were exchanged.
Coach Quique Flores approached the fans and spoke to them for ten minutes, but they then continued the insults.
David Villa and Curro Torres also spoke to some fans.
The post-training press conference was called off, with the players frustrated by the fansÂ’ actions and not wanting to give them further publicity.

This is an example of when fans carry it too far. Somehow when I read articles like this, I get reminded of the clonemaster and ghimpheng.

Villa And Viana Spar In Training
David Villa and Hugo Viana had to be seperated in training after the pair squared up after a collision, while Fernando Morientes missed the session.
A day after being barracked by a group of supporters following defeat in the local derby at the weekend, the sparks flew on the pitch at Valencia.
Following a strong tackleby Villa, there was some pushing as Viana reacted angrily and the duo had to be pulled apart by team-mates before any blows could be traded.
The tension from the abuse handed out by a group of irate fans was gone, but the players evidently had some pent up emotion to release.
Morientes missed the action as he was not present and training and is now considered to be doubtful for the final game of the season against Real Sociedad on Sunday.
The Spain international striker has been out of action for two months and did not report to the training ground having received treatment on Wednesday.
Carlos Marchena is also set to miss the last match as he is suspended having been booked against Levante, although the club have lodged an appeal against the yellow card. -
Ok.... let me just clarify. The reason why it relates to the clones is obvious, fans carrying it too far. I never said you or the clonemaster are exactly like the Valencia fans, just that the clonemaster would be first thought. You come into the picture because you're always part of the ever ongoing conflict here in sgforums. So you are in mind next after the clonemaster.Originally posted by ghimpheng:what the crap ? you sure know how to flame me from anywhere
If it distress you that much to see your name being mentioned, I can edit my post if you want. But you would want to edit yours too. -
some people can relate just about anything to certain people they don't like, which IMO is just plain cheap shot, sickening!!!Originally posted by SumOne:This is an example of when fans carry it too far. Somehow when I read articles like this, I get reminded of the clonemaster and ghimpheng. -
If the mention of certain names really irk you so much, let me know and I can edit the post. But you would need to edit yours as well.Originally posted by Saltiga:some people can relate just about anything to certain people they don't like, which IMO is just plain cheap shot, sickening!!!
All I'm saying is, in Valencia we have people like those, in sgforums we have another bunch.
Again like I say, don't read into it too much. -
poor ghimppeng always kena flamed

This was not meant to be a flame.....Originally posted by WiNtEr'SkiLL:poor ghimppeng always kena flamed -
mentioning of their names doesn't really irk me, just that the linking of such topics to fellow forumers with a post like yours makes me feels and think what sort of a person you really are? try standing in Gimpheng's shoe and feel or try thinking how would you feel if someone posted a thread talking about how pretentious some players were and Gimpheng link it to you.Originally posted by SumOne:If the mention of certain names really irk you so much, let me know and I can edit the post.

i'm sure there are lots of people here trying to ease the tension in "Sports" forum and i'm sure you wouldn't like to see the forum having tonnes of flamming threads day in day out right?
take a step back and chill, those guys will try their best to make you guys react to their flame baits but if we are mature enough to not replying to them i bet in 1-2 months time those chaps will die a natural death
take a chill pill!!! -
Hmm... I'm chilled, thank you very much. I did not make that post in a moment of anger or something like that. Still, thanks for the suggestion.Originally posted by Saltiga:mentioning of their names doesn't really irk me, just that the linking of such topics to fellow forumers with a post like yours makes me feels and think what sort of a person you really are? try standing in Gimpheng's shoe and feel or try thinking how would you feel if someone posted a thread talking about how pretentious some players were and Gimpheng link it to you.

You can have your own opinion of me, as Ghimpheng or some other people do. Personally, if ghimpheng makes a post and links it to me, it's his choice. I may reply but I don't think I'd be angry about it.
Quite honestly, if I were Ghimpheng, there's a lot of his things that I wouldn't have posted. And his reputation comes because of things he posted, no matter how much he blames other people for their responses to him. I hadn't planned on going so long about him in this thread, but since we're at it, this suggestion to put yourself in other people's shoes shouldn't apply to just one individual. It should also apply to those who make certain threads about Frank Lamapard, to clonemasters who go on and on about other people's clubs, to people who keep trying to stir up conflict between Man U fans and Liverpool fans.
Since you have taken your chance to make a statement, I have made mine as well. It is not directed at you, but I stand by what I've just said.
One thing I can say is the reasons you think may be behind the post of others may not really be. Be it me or somebody else.
My first post in this thread was just a casual remark, but if you really want to view it as something sinister, then I suggest you go back to some of the other posts as well. Like ghimpheng's continual rant about the Liverpool-related post in the Man U forum. To the extent of using specific pictures and links. Quite clear there what his intention is. If you really want to speak out against what you've mentioned, then that would be a more effective place to start and not with me. Even not counting that, there's a lot more areas you could start with, my post like that would not be the first.
There's a lot of other posts/comments that really add to the tension instead of my casual remark.
Again let me just offer the same thing, I can edit my initial post, but it'd be pointless if my initial post is still quoted in the posts of others. I do not agree with your sentiments regarding my first post, but I am really to reach a comprimise on this. -
Again let me just say, the Valencia fans mentioned were fans who carried it too far. When I think about it in the Singapore context, there are specific individuals on sgforums that will come to mind. That's just about it.
Chill.....
