adamsmith69 Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 Now then fellow tonians. I have always hated booing our own players as i think it does them no good whatsoever. I remember the abuse Unsy used to get and it made me cringe, he was after all blue through and through. In my opinion it can only damage the players (and the teams morale). BUT on the other hand, fans should have the ability to show there feelings through whatever means possible. What i am trying to get at is i think it is coming extremely close to the stage where King Louis is booed as his name is called out. He has been piss poor for a season now (since the extension of his contract) and i think the fans have the right to voice there dissaproval of his constant inclusion in the team sheet. Where do you stand on the matter and do you think it is time to voice our concerns over Saha's inclusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like when parents should be angry (which is what you expect if you do something wrong) but say they theyre disappointed instead. That one always hurts more. I reckon not acknowledging him would make more of an impact. They only person on a pitch ive ever booed is the referee, but even then i wasnt proud of myself.

Romey 1878 Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 I don't ever boo our players individually but when they're walking off after a shit performance I've booed them a few times. You pay your money, you're entitled to boo the team, a player, a manager, whoever. It's the only way you can let them know your feelings, just as cheering for them is.

Hafnia Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 They are paid a fortune to play for our club. I would never boo a player who had a bad game as long as they showed effort. That is all we ever can expect. Unfortunately as with the case of Saha, we have talented individual who is clearly not interested, we know he isn't and we deserve the right to let him know we will not stand for it. I would applaud beckford all day long even if he misses sitters because he is working the channels. You will never find certain players being booed and they are the likes of Cahill, hibbert, Neville and that is because they give 100%. sadly the same can't be said for our most talented players.

troy8 Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 I was saying boo-urns..... I think the only circumstances to justify booing anybody is if they've shown little or no interest in their performances and/or complete disrespect to the club.

adamsmith69 Posted December 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 So does Saha fall into this category? I certainly wont boo him, but i do see the other points of view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 So does Saha fall into this category? I certainly wont boo him, but i do see the other points of view. For me yes he does, he has absolute quality, and for him to not show it is criminal. Lack of interest is not acceptable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
