The away end were particularly unhappy with the decision to take off goalscorer Cenk Tosun and later Gylfi Sigurdsson, who was the Blues’ best performer on the day.
The Everton boss, though, says it won’t make any difference to his approach and has vowed to win over the Goodison faithful.
“It’s not nice, it’s not what you want to hear, but you’ve got to accept the responsibility when you’re the No 1, you take the good, the bad and the ugly with it,” said Allardyce. “Whatever comes your way, you have to deal with it.
“I can’t let it affect me either way, whether they cheer my name or boo my name.
“I mean, I’ve been around long enough to know it comes your way sometimes. You have to be big enough to ride it out.
“The only people who can change the fans on what they think and what they say are the players on the field. They have to go out and perform to a level and win football matches and bring everybody back onside.”
Allardyce added: “I have a responsibility to try and make the team play better and make the fans cheer us, not boo us.
“At the end of the day, we all have a responsibility that we are employed by Everton Football Club with passionate fans who want to see better performances and better results away from home.
“I am trying all I can to achieve that. The players give everything. I don’t think there’s any question about that, but it was misdirected in the second half. That was the disappointing thing.
“I don’t think we should have put ourselves under pressure, particularly with the experienced players we had out there.”
The Blues have won only one of their last 23 away Premier League games – the 1-0 triumph at Newcastle United in December – and Allardyce believes a failure to capitalise on first-half chances was their undoing at the weekend, rather than their poor defending for both Burnley goals.
“We have got away form which has slipped into diversity again,” he said. “It’s the same as it has been for a long time.
“As I said in my press conference on Friday, we only won two games in 2017. I won one of those. And in 2016-17 overall, we only won seven games. So it’s still a problem and I thought we were going to overcome that problem today.
“While I will talk about the two goals we’ve conceded, there’s a bigger responsibility today on the front end not getting us 2-0 up. I would be a bit more critical about those chances missed than the guys who let them in. Clearly we should have done better on both goals, but we should have been got our noses in front farther.
“I can’t give Gylfi a lot of stick for the one he missed because he did brilliantly to create that chance. But clear-cut chances at this level can’t afford to be missed. I think we’ve let Burnley off the hook today.”
