[Football] Boo Boys.......

[Pretty pink fairy]

If you've ever worked with the public you'll know that the customer is often spectacularly wrong.

Then you need to tell them that as its always guaranteed to increase your cash flow

Wonder if the 6th placed Wolves fans booed today?

 

[Seaview Seagull]

I didn't hear any Booing at the end but did notice Maupay get some when he was subbed, which was Harsh. But Is this thread basically People who watched the match on the box having a go at fans who bothered to go the game?
Try looking at the over reactions on most matchday threads to see that It takes all sorts.

I think they were booing the substitution itself not Maupay.

Absolutely shameful that anyone would have the brass neck to boo that performance. I was embarrassed when I heard that at the final whistle.

We (the fans) were embarrassing, no passion from us at all and very little noise at any point..

The team and Potter were entitled to line up together and boo us at the end, not the other way around..

Gutted.

I thought the atmosphere was pretty decent overall? Was at the front of West upper. Leeds fans loud in spells but got quieter as the game wore on, our fans decent overall in urging the team on, frustration then grew towards the end though which was hardly surprising, especially when bloody locadia came on

Perhaps I’m extremely naive (I am naive, clearly, given Potters reaction and the condemnation on here from all the real fans.) but I was surrounded by boo’ing at the end up in the east and I didn’t really think much of it at the time if I’m honest, felt kind of light hearted and ironic, certainly didn’t feel aggressive or in any way targeted at the team or the manager, how can it be(?) but I can completely understand why they would think that, which is a real shame and not helpful or productive in any way as everyone has repeatedly pointed out above. I think we’re such a polite, supportive, well behaved bunch for the most part, (compared to some VERY entitled supporters) but perhaps I just don’t want to think bad of anyone. Felt more like frustration at yet another dominant draw, like they were booing the ‘unfair’ result(?) def not the team/management, surely?! (We deserved so much more!) Very misguided I guess cause whatever anyone’s reason or intention for booing, the team will understandably take it to heart, which is a real shame!!

I kinda thought that, maybe just a boo at the unfair result? Didn't make sense otherwise.

I was saying Dan Boo-urn

Hahaha. Love it.

Thanks for that. Have a like.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Save your boos for if we lose 0-4 at home to Darlington again. It wasn’t that long ago.
Idiots.

I was at that. Majestic* performance by their player manager

(We singed his brother - he made one appearance for us)

*It drove me to buy wine

 

[GloryDays]

I’m definitely not defending booing but you know it’s not because we’re “only 8th” right?

It’s bc we’re going to inevitably be in a relegation battle again and it’s very predictable bc we still haven’t signed a striker worthy of mid table prem and haven’t replaced Murray who was arguably already too old for the PL when we came up. A fit Danny Welbeck would have had two today…but he’s perma injured and we also knew that would be the case when we signed him on for the last 2 seasons.

Anyway, not defending the booing. It’s lame af, but it’s also a very easy position to take to criticise. The frustration is valid.

During the game, I distinctly remember taking a moment to look around the Priestfield and thinking “this isn’t great”. At that very moment they scored their third.

100% with you [MENTION=2719]Mouldy Boots[/MENTION]

 

[amexer]

I left at full time. Was booing from all ground or just isolated section

This is the big problem with booing , it is just so random and negative .
I am sure some of it was for the ref , some for the passing round the back , some for the lack of goals , most probably from general frustration and maybe even some from leeds fans who certainly had more reason than us to be dissatisfied ! But the thing is it all sounds the same so it cannot be properly interpreted and is therefore in no way constructive or useful .
In short don't do it you ****wits !

 

[wellquickwoody]

Over 2 years not addressing a huge bloody glaring issue stopping us from making any progress is a joke let's be honest

Eight, yes 8 years.

 

[Sirnormangall]

To be where we are today in the sixty odd years I have supported the Albion I would have bitten your hand off.

Absolutely. It is a dream come true for supporters of our age. Youngsters today………..

Was it Infact perhaps predominantly the Leeds fans with a few lemmings amongst our supporters?

 

[drew]

I didn't boo, in fact as soon as the whistle went I was on my way to the concourse so didn't hear it but I would say that people that pay their money are entitled to do what they want. That said, whilst that performance was frustrating in that we didn't take our chances to end this winless run, it wasn't a performance that warranted booing. I'd reserve that for the sort of performance we got when we lost 5-1 to Stoke in the last game of the season when we were at the Withdean!!!

Also, as someone else alluded to, I doubt it was because we are 'only' 8th but more the fact we have failed to win for 8/9 games including matches against Norwich, Newcastle and Leeds! It's also disingenuous to keep making reference to where we are now compared to history. 24 years ago we nearly went out of the league but you can't keep using that as a barometer for our performances/position now.

Absolutely this. Felt to me like frustration at the result (following the equally frustrating Newcastle game, and if you want to go slightly further back, Arsenal) rather than having a go at team or manager...

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Me too.
At the time I was grateful it wasn’t five!

Gabbiadini hattrick?

Seem to recall he ways looked good against Brighton

 

[Weststander]

In defence of whoever booed I don't think it will have been at our league position, nor do I think it will have been at our quality passing and build-up play. I think it will have been directed at the fact that the ball should be rattling the back of the net more often than it should, which is almost never (in free play) over the last handful of games...
