Did you boo at half and/or at fulltime?

[Monkey Man]

I reserve the right to boo for something really egregious - a player having ago at the fans, or very obviously not trying. But booing a team that's purely and simply off-form doesn't help anyone.

I'm pretty sure the players knew they weren't having a good night without anyone booing to ram home the point. The very lukewarm applause from the few who were still there for the player clapping at the end was actually more of a statement, in my opinion.

 

[Insel affe]

It makes you want the Albion to do well just to shut up the whinging!

That's a lovely thought, however I have a feeling some people just moan about anything if we are not winning ! Or not not winning by three clear goals ! Or winning but not in the style they like ! Moan, moan, moan it's a game of football sometimes the other team wants it more or sad fact just plays better end of.

The **** behind me last night started moaning after we weren't winning around the 5 minute mark (yes seriously). You can imagine what it was like when we went 2-0 down.

I know, I don't think these people understand football sometimes. May be they should get on that field. After 5 mins they would be knackered, probably pull a muscle and be subbed.

They'll start moaning about the pitch. I think their only solution would be to go back to supporting Real Madrid.

They are not paid to be a professional footballer though ? I doubt Greer could fix a boiler could he ? The team should be grateful 25000 people are wanting to see them play and pay them back, not the other way around.

I think a lot of it is down to the obscene money they get especially in the PL when some of them get £ 200k a week for kicking a ball around and a nurse gets £ 20k a year for saving lives. There is a lot of resentment about that even amoungst their own fans.

Better get used to it though. Nurses don't have people paying TV companies and supporters paying hundreds of millions of pounds to watch them at work. It's just the way life is and a tiresome old argument - how many people moan about the money rock stars earn?

or the bankers bonuses?

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Didn't boo. Couldn't be bothered, a bit like the team last night.

So if the team plays badly, they're not grateful and we should boo them?

Hearing the booing at the end for me was disappointing. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I'm just surprised why people would do that.
We are 3 points of a play off place, not 6 points adrift at the bottom of the table and I will say again, Sheff Wed beat Leicester last night. Yeovil beat Watford last Saturday, this is what the league is like.

I wouldn't have thought anyone was booing the campaign so far but last night's performance in isolation. Maybe the booing was for the lack of effort because that was the main source of my frustration.

The Championship is a strange league apart from when you play against Barnsley at home. That's usually 3 points for everyone.

 

[clippedgull]

Sheff Wed beat Leicester last night 2-1, and Yeovil beat Watford 3-0 last Saturday.

Is booing going to become the norm at the Amex everytime we play badly now, because It's the sort of thing you hear on match of the day from some of the plastic premiership fans, embarrasing. Must have done our players the world of good that last night. Yes we played crap, but that's football. We are not bottom of the sodding league, we are 3 points off a play off position. Good job some of these people where not around in those dark old days because then they would really have something to boo about.

Booing is not a modern phenomenon!

I remember hearing booing at both the Goldstone and Withdean after shite performances.

Never went to Gillingham so can't account for any booing up there.

No but take your support for granted at your peril as I suspect the renewals will show next Summer.

 

[GoingUp]

I didn't boo because I felt like sh!t (man flu), was knackered from all the shouting a swearing and depressed from terrible football. But I don't blame the people that did, the football was awful and the team needed to hear what people thought, the defending was comical at times.

Norman Gall was booed by Albion fans during his debut for the club, because he had taken the place of their favourite, Roy Jennings.

Get that! Albion fans booing a chap one if their own making his debut.

 

[Mellotron]

Think it's the first time ive walked off without clapping at the Amex though!

This. Couldn't bring myself to, even for Agustien who was last off the pitch and actually played very well in the circumstances.

 

[BobbySmith]

I sure did Dave, but never booed........

Yes lovely time thanks, How about a beer after game Saturday ?

 

[Braders]

A fair bit right from centre in the North Stand - thought we'd snatch it second half so didn't boo at half time (and wouldn't) , pissed off after the game but didn't boo (didn't clap either mind)

 

[crodonilson]

Seriously? There were people booing last night? Absolutely disgusting.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

I didn't boo at any stage. I showed my annoyance by not clapping the team off.

But I am not going to judge anyone who did. They pay their money, same as everyone else.
