People tried to start a rumor he wasn't ill, it was disgusting and like it or not those who associated themselves under the blue union tag got the blame, it was shameful.
Maybe initially some had good intentions but the problem with these thing people jump on board who don't always have the right ideas, such as those who made public what was said in a private meeting.
Remember the video of that lad having a rant through the gates near the Park End at Bill? Again the blue Union were blamed, maybe it wasn't there fault but they did themselves no favors either way, achieved nothing, and attracted a unsavoury element that most sensible evertonians want to distance themselves from.
Don't forget when his face got clapped on the big screen is was basically the crowd letting the Blue Union know what we thought of them.
