Booing

[nsno-chris]

Funny word supporter,means very different things to different people.

What??

If you are going to boo at least do it properly. Our boos are s****, just like the rest of the atmosphere at Goodison.

Unfortunately it probably only spurs on the opposition. Its incredibly frustrating though, I don't blame folk for kicking off.

Haha as if, Goodison is as quiet as a funeral home, it was probably the Park enders saying sorry cos they dropped the worthers originals.

The best thing today was the fan coming on in the park end

The thread is about booing,and when the second goal went in for Wimbledon there was a stunned silence and then the crowd got behind the team.If you heard booing in the Gwladys St we were obviously at different games.

No I was definitely there. Had a season ticket and had one since 1980 so I reckon I would have known my way around the ground by then.

Maybe you were in the Park End that day?

It’s the only way the manager and board know the fans are not happy.
They don’t seem to be the quickest on the uptake at the best of times.

Is a very salient point.

Back in the good old days, if your team was rubbish you had the option to vote with your feet and not go to the game, and attendances suffered.

These days when so many of our current capacity is season tickets, the club have had the supporters money, and a fair proportion of it up front, before a ball is kicked. And given the demand, even if a ST holder decides to stay at home, the ST can be sold on StubHub and a casual fan or whoever will likely snap it up.

I'd even go so far as to suggest that these days, we could be bottom of the league and six points adrift and there would still be comfortably over 30,000 there every game... most of us have already paid and I'd suggest would be reluctant to 'lose' out by simply not attending... like fans did in the dark days of the 70s and early 80s.

Are fans are crap as the players.

 

[Kenshin]

Our fans are embarrassing!

I will always say.

We take the piss out of the kopites for their cringy fan base yet at least their team have a bit of passion and get behind their team. We boo our team every week, don't sing , don't produce an atmosphere and moan about everything. And the team doesnt perform, funny that

The booing of Martina shanking the ball aimlessly down the flanks with his orthopedic left foot was pretty justified but not so much at the player more so to the board for letting this situation continue
actually starting to feel sorry for the lad

as bad as my spelling then

Forum members of a certain age will remember going 0-2 down to Sheffield Wed at Wembley and the same v Wimbledon at Goodison.Just thankful that our present 'support' wasn't at those games.

Totally different scenarios.
They were one off games when booing would have achieved sweet fa.
Frustration over a whole series of events going on at the club, not necessarily the players, caused today's outbursts.
Not nice but understandable.

Can't work out if people were booing Tosun or the fact he was taken off for Niasse. If they booed because they didn't agree with the substitution then they must have felt like a right bunch of tits when Niasse scored.

Think that was aimed at the manager mate changing like for like when a goal down was bizarre
