Anyone see that livid fan in the corner on 83 minutes.
I saw it on Twitter, He looked like he was going to self implode.

The atmosphere at Goodison is embarrassing. The only time we make any noise is when we're abusing our own players. Barkley and Stones used to be the scapegoats; now it's Keane and Coleman.
We used to be like a 12 man but nowadays we do more to help the opposition than our own team.
It wasn't as bad as this when we were fighting relegation during the days of Walker, Kendall Mk III and Walter Smith.
I do wonder if the players sometimes think 'I'm really trying and the fans just keep booing, why should I bother?!'.
Yes they are professionals and earn alot of money but as you say, they are only human.
At the end of the day, abusing our own players is not going to imbue them with confidence and make them play better. Quite the opposite.
I wasn't being obtuse, just hard for me to tell from the Internet stream. Probably void my right to an opinion on this topic with that comment.
Now we are getting somewhere, this is change. Thanks for your honesty Phil, you are a beacon of hope.
At least when we're having a go at our own players there's noise. The fact 40,000 people can be so quiet is unnerving.
Amazing we have maintained a good home record over recent years with the atmosphere the way it is.
The funny thing is the atmosphere would've been miles worse and more stale if we'd just won 2-0 or something. You only have to look at the crowd's response to actually taking the lead, half-arsed cheers for 20 seconds and then not a flicker of anything for the next 20 minutes. People will have you believe it's all reaction to a poor performance though.
