Nobody ever played better as a result of being booed. Compare us to Stoke fans. They might be a bunch of six fingered backward talking inbreds but they showed our lot up on Tuesday.They turned up in good numbers and sang their hearts out, had to endure what was a woeful first half for them, 1-0 down and could have been a couple more. They didn’t boo them off at HT, they came back 2nd half and sung even louder. Nearly cheered their team on to a win whilst all around me people are hurling abuse, barracking and booing our team. All that cack in the press about us not deserving a Premier League team, well if certain fans continue to get on their backs all the time then they will no doubt boo us all the way back to the Championship
Yeah, Stoke fans were a credit to their club. When they were singing “Your support is f***in sh*t!”, I did actually think to myself, yeah, it is.
It is though, isn’t it? Not a patch on when we were in our Championship promotion season. I think for whatever reason, a lot of our support from back then, has dropped off.
And the support IS dwindling. There were 7 season ticket holders missing who normally sit near us. Ok, so their money is paid, and the club won’ty lose out. But it’s still more empty spaces. I was quite shocked really. If it’s similar next Tuesday, in a REALLY massive 6 pointer against the Cowyeds, then the stay aways need a slap.
