Well b back 3,139 Posted September 24, 2021 So West Brom don’t play well 1st half so booed off. Subs made ( including Hugill ) crowd boo. West Brom despite being booed turn a 1:0 deficit into 2:1 win, how tin pot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems rather thoughtless does it not? Presumably badger and LDC have never ever shouted at a referee or opposition player incase it damages their mental state… It seems you are being deliberately obtuse. I've been saying all along that if you want to boo at, shout or get at somebody at a game, do it at the opposition or the ref. Make it hostile for visiting teams - they expect it to be a cauldron of home support and so make it as hard for them as possible - but don't do it at your own - unless they need a kick up the back side, in which case shout at them - but don't boo them. It's ridiculous imo. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All a bit of a shame really, seems like standards are dropping everywhere. Booing the taking of the knee by our supporters is surely a bigger problem as our players ( like the players from other teams ) see this as standing together, but we don’t. Anyway thought you said booing results in players being demotivated, WBA and Jordan just shew that is not always the case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Highland Canary 76 Posted September 25, 2021 Certainly more cheers than boos (there were some) at the end. Of course the loudest chant in the first part of the game was ‘how s**t must you be we’re drawing away’. Events somewhat changed matters soon after. Are the pesky away fans in trouble with the booing police? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Naturalcynic 605 Posted September 25, 2021 Just now, Badger said: You don't think that we should have a zero tolerance policy on racism? 😮 You know very well that we’ve had page after page of “discussion” about whether or not the taking a knee is an innocent gesture to symbolise the right and proper opposition to discrimination or whether it’s an overt display of support for the BLM movement which may or may not be a front for Marxism and far-left politics in general.

Stop dragging this argument up yet again. Good grief - do you really, really believe that? Really? Look there's no point in the debating the issue - nobody with any powers of reasoning still believes that it is a pro-marxist statement; it has been said time and time again that it is just an anti-racist action. The idea that the Football League, The Premier League; The FA; hundreds of multi-millionaire footballers are all a secret front of Marxist conspirators is such a pathetic excuse that it leaves any rational person with only one logical conclusion about why people boo taking the knee. I don't want to discuss the matter with you further. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought we were supposed to have a zero tolerance policy on racism. I think that a majority of people are like myself and have a zero tolerance policy towards racism. I also think that footballers should not be taking the knee as it is synonymous with BLM, an organisation whose founder has funneled millions into her own pockets. Then used those millions to purchase mansions rather than promote equality. I will never support hypocrites.

Highland Canary 76 Posted October 23, 2021 (edited) Interestingly, more boos at full time. Those that were left appeared to be firmly in the Farke out camp. Experience suggests that the away fans tend to turn first. Sad to see. He’s achieved so much with so little. The problem is elsewhere. As, indeed, is the solution.
