its an entertainment business. people are not satisfied with the fare, they voice their disapproval. this isnt one game, its a string of performances that havent delivered.

Does that make it any more sensible?

If someone goes to the cinema, the movie is shit and the dude starts booing it afterwards, I dont think "hmm, great that he is voicing his disapproval", I think "what a ****ing retard".

I assume you didn't boo because you were watching at home. March was dynamic when he came on, Locadia looked like he'd won 10 minutes up front in a pub raffle.

I agree over Locadia and March. I really hoped Locadia might grab hero status in just a few minutes, but………

March livened things up and went close.

And I didn’t hear any booing!!

So we are customers not fans then ?

odd question, are fans not allowed to boo? some fans are unhappy, they boo. this isnt a new thing in football.

I didn't boo and wouldn't ever boo. The performance in most part was really good but that was one of the most frustrating games I have watched and I understand why people would boo. How else can people show frustration? They were literally the worst team I have seen at the Amex this season yet they get to walk away with a point because we can't put the ball in the back of the net.
Very frustrating for sure, but disagree that it justified a booing. Hardly on a 0-5 v Bournemouth level. Plenty of positives to go with the frustration of Maupay missing a couple of sitters. Lamptey must be more frustrated than anyone. Can't do more than he did

you're absolutly right, booing a inanimate screen would be pointless. voicing your displeasure to the director in charge who is present, might let them know your concern.

If March’s shot that hit the post had gone in there would’ve been wild celebrations and no booing. I thought we played very well tonight and it didn’t occur to me to boo. It never does.

Tonight must be one of the worst (on NSC) for our entitled fans letting themselves down. Potter looked angry and upset with what he heard at the end.

Might let them know you are a ****ing braindead animal, yes.

i dont know why you need to make it so emotive, its simply fans expressing disappointment.

I didn’t hear any and whilst can understand frustration after not scoring again no way that performance deserved to be booed.

If the Sky commentator hadn’t brought it up would it even have been noticed by GP?

Booing was totally unacceptable by a bunch of morons after a largely good performance. But on the flip side, perhaps Barber will learn after the 3rd season in a row of this bullshit that if you constantly feed the press with the nonsense message that we have the best English manager and the best young team in the land, fans will be ****ed off if you fail to win the 8th or is it 9th game in a row against an injury riddled side who really aren't very good at all.

I don't know how else people who wanted to show their frustration were meant to show it. I also think that most who booed would have booed because they heard booing. Thats how crowds work I think.

So Hughton the man who managed to get the club in the PL can be booed, Potter the man who took over and seems to be going backwards this season can’t be booed :shrug: Hard to keep up at times.

Part of becoming an adult human is to cope with negative emotions in a sensible way.



Yeah well I didnt mean you as in him specifically but the general nature of booers.

Still a bit harsh. I don't agree with booing, especially after a good performance, even though we came away (again) with a solitary point, but I do think your description of paying fans who chose to boo, is extreme.
