    With all the new faces in the team chances are that some of the players are not going to play as good as they can do

    Are we going to stay silent and just listen to all the abuse of the new players before they have chance to get going
    OR
    Are you willing to shout at the person that is calling the team and individual players and tell them to back the team

    I'll start......................
    Count me in

    I do at away games when I feel it's unwarranted...

    Bit hard at home as I sit on my own :D

    Hey Nudge, you trying to be Sean Bean in Outlaw? ;-)

    I tend to have a moan at the boo-boys around me if / when I feel it's harsh. Not sure i have the physical presence to silence them though!

    I usually do when it's the same people week after week having a go at the same player, and then being strangely silent when that player does something good.

    Personally I think booing is pretty tragic but I do also feel that if somebody wants to boo (when it is warranted) then they should be allowed. They are only expressing disappointment at what they are seeing and I am sure all the players and management are aware already that we are not doing well. However I do draw the line at shouting abuse and will tell somebody to shut it.

    BOOING has got to be made illegal at the WELL

    If yer don't like what you see then just don't say anything - but never ever Boo
    Fooking tell them thats doing it to back the team
    Lets have a positive attitude to the players
    It may take some doing but once it becomes unacceptable then people will think twice before doing it
    Some fans think they are being clever or funny in pulling their own team and players to pieces

    If yer hear it - STAMP IT OUT !!!

    to be honest mate, they will know when they have not played well anyway, booing will simply erode their confidence.

    Where I sit they do not tend to boo but they certainly can moan - about absolutely everything. Make you wonder why they go to watch. Suppose it's the only place they can constantly bleat and get some support. Spoils watching the game. Should never boo individuals in my opinion - just think how you would feel if you were on the receiving end. Can understand booing a poor performance at the end, but have not yet resorted to it myself. I agree though - there has to be a degree of patience - especially with so many new players. Cant expect then to gel right from the off.
