Can I just say this?
I took my 10 year old and his mate today. We're season ticket holders but it was his mates first game.
I observed them throughout the game and guess what? When we cheered, they cheered. When we boo'd they boo'd. When someone shouted "get a feckin grip Monahan" "You're sh*te Anderson" So did they.
Maybe I shouldn't take any kids with me until we're absolutely certain of winning every game???

No just educate your kids to not do as other people do.

Great advice! Never thought of that!

Is a disgrace....(some are are anyway). We didn't lose today due to lack of effort or fight hence the comeback, yet some people still see fit to call the players a disgrace and boo at fulltime.

That's the 'General Pleblic' for you!

However, two poor teams refereed by a guy totally out of his depth made me want to booooo. Poor poor poor poor game!!!!!

I couldn't get to the game today (work, boo!) but how many did we take roughly? was it a good atmosphere? sounded a bit flat on the radio

There was a decent amount of Wire fans behind the goals.

Atmosphere was crap though. You can tell that the fans are still pretty down on the team at the moment.

Tbh didn't hear any booing today, forgot you were there for most of the match. Even the kn0b with the drum was quiet for once.

Bye the way, what does your son's mate call you - Mr B0ll0cks?

never boooed, never will

tutted and shrugged and shouted "for f----s sake Briers" on many occasion but never boooed.

It will never do the players any good

Our support is an embarrassment at times. Losing at half time is now apparently a booing offence. Smith has started his clear out - if he can get rid of some of the tools who purport to 'support' the team at the same time I'd be grateful. Christ, there was even a 'supporter' berating someone who felt like clapping them off yesterday.
