Barnet boss in incredible rant against own fans as he brands them 'moany' and 'miserable'
Dean Brennan is sick of complaints about the chairman to the quality of beer at the stadium
Barnet boss Dean Brennan has gone on an incredible rant against his OWN fans.
The Irishman oversaw a 2-1 home win against Altrincham to go sixth in the National League. But he was left furious after listening to home fans mump and moan their way through the 90 minutes before clapping his players off at the end. And it seems it's something the North London gaffer has been stewing over for a while as he let rip in an interview with the club's own YouTube channel after the game.
He said: "I don't like the mans and groans from my supporters beside me, screaming rubbish at me when we're 1-0 down. We've played six games now without a recognised centre forward and I have to be honest with you, I think our level of performance has been outstanding. If they don't want that, I'll move on then. If that's what they want, get someone else to do the job because I'm sick and tired of it. Just the miserable, moany lot. What's wrong with them? Get behind the team.
"If they're going to be negative, go somewhere else and be negative. It's their money, they can do what they want. But I can say what I want on here as well and how I really feel, because I don't pull no punches.
"We've got young lads that read the social media. I don't read it, I'm not on it, but I've got stuff on social media going against my goalkeeper. Does that help does it? All geniuses now and all want to clap you off.
"You know what happens in the tough times? You see the real characters, the real people. That's what I'm looking for. Character! In this group. Character! I want the fans to come with us, with it.
"There's a message for you. Do not edit that by the way, I want that to go out because that's very important. We're very open and honest with our supporters. All I'm hearing is negativity when we're playing well.
"I've got to listen to that moaning in my ear. Just relax. I know what I'm doing. I took this team over bottom of the table. Have a look where you are. There's a lot of other teams below us.
"I'm very, very angry and frustrated and if any fan wants to come and see me, my door is open. Come in and see me. Have a cup of tea with me and I'll explain where we're at, who's injured and what's happening.
"All I ever here is moaning. Moaning about the chairman, the beer's not good enough, that's not good enough. Come on man, get behind the group.
"There was only 900-odd fans here tonight. It was announced as 1200 but there was only 900 hundred. Yeah, we're a big club aren't we?"
