Part of the issue is exaggeration, our own fans love to pick faults with others. There were boos and a few unsavoury words directed towards DCL yesterday but it wasn't that bad. I've seen the entirety of Goodison boo Maupay off the pitch before and the abuse he and Rondon among others have had has been miles worse.
Said it in DCL thread, no idea at the ground that DCL had a bad facial injury - no replays or close ups. Booing comes from frustration at witnessing the same gutless performances week in, week out.
I remember an unnervingly large contingent of Goodison booing Schneiderlin before he came on. We can all be frustrated with him, but really? How does that help?
I remember watching Digne getting a bottle thrown at his head; I watched a fan, with his child in his arms, punching a Lyon player.
I hear vile stuff fairly regularly in the LG. Now it's not all fans, far from it, but they are not exaggerations and simple mathematics would suggest it's a problem.
People are right to be frustrated, however I simply can't condone this growing trend of incidents occurring in the name of frustration or whatnot.
We give the RS pelters for how they act abroad, yet how are we acting here?
