Has asked us to stick with them mate...
I think it's fair to say that most are. That first half performance was abysmal mate and one of the worst I've witnessed in years. I think people are frustrated and struggle to contain it. I think then enticing those people publically probably isn't the best move.
 

Football isn't calm, collected and rational. If it was, none of us would be here, wasting our time on a forum about a group of multi millionaires kicking a ball around for billionaire owners in a billionaires league with the top teams owned by murderous regimes.

There's emotion involved, and with that you take the good and the bad.

The good is continually being stifled - VAR, points deduction, the cost of football, atrocious home form and football style for a prolonged period.

The bad is the frustration and what comes with that. If you can't understand where that frustration comes from and how it inevitably manifests, you lack understanding of the game.
The people who cannot understand are the ones who don't have to use up their time and money going to watch us
 

Booing our own is pointless and destructive. No need for it. But if a player on a lucrative contract can't handle expectation and basic standards demanded by a crowd, then the game is not for him. The boo-boys shouldn't have started, but Garner shouldn't have mentioned it. He's far too callow a performer to be pointing fingers at elements in the crowd from the safety of the press room.

Last night was a disgraceful performance. Garner himself was hugely disappointing. I don't condone any booing, but he was hardly going to get a standing ovation for that showing. This is not an amateur game of Corinthians who supporters can root for with no entitlement. This is a professional game where players are paid massively to play in front of people who are expected to pay massively for admission. Like the boo-boys, he needs to pipe down. And start justifying his salary (however modest it may be by footballing standards).

There's nothing worse than being at a night game in the freezing cold and the players playing like they can't be arsed. It's like why am I bothering to be here supporting you if you're not looking like you want to play.
 
Good on him for standing up to a bunch of fatties who wouldn't understand midfield if luka modric sat down and explained it to them.

To be fair, it is usually this 'type' of person who boo first!

Some of them need to buy 2 seats, that's probably why they get annoyed quicker..............its the 'i pay my money i can boo as much as i want' x2 as they need to buy 2 seats
 
Never understood that much how a professional footballer especially at Premier League level.......................probably in the top 0.01% of people in the country at that specific craft/job would get annoyed at big Neil & Yozzer yelling a few things at them! Surely you would be of the mentality that you know what your doing and the fella with a hot dog in his hands who can't see his feet doesn't know a thing about how to become a professional footballer
