martyn8484 Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 According to the Star "The fans booed his name before the match and he looked a little bereft of confidence. Far better in the second half. If that's true, shame on any one that did this. That's not what we should be about. Boo a bad performance, boo a huge mistake, DON'T BOO A PLAYER BEING ANNOUNCED IN THE TEAM, fizz sake! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mus Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 There was no booing in our area of the Grandstand, there used to be last season but not yesterday. If this was the case, no wonder the lad lacks confidence! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not booed once in my life, but if you want to boo, save it til the end of the match when it won’t affect our performance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owls maniac Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 It's actually getting disgusting now. Yes he's not the best, but he put in some great blocks last night and did what he had to do. What the fizz is wrong with some of our fans? WAWAW my arse. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hirstys Salopettes Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 (edited) I can’t recall any booing when the team sheets were read out. I recall the odd groan with a couple of backward passes first half (particularly when failing to play it along the line to Harris), but genuinely can’t recall the lad getting pelters. Im in the south just behind Bullen FWIW, so somewhat surprised when LB mentioned post match.

dewsburyowl58 Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Not sure where this booing of Fox came from last night , he wasn’t booed whilst playing , there was a small section booing the team off at half time , obviously some felt we could do much better . I never boo our boys I think it’s wrong . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markg Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Definitely heard booing on the kop when his name was read out. Pathetic. I've known much worse players play for us and not have that treatment, I just don't get it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akbuk Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 He was booed which I don't condone or understand and he did ok but he's still the whipping not for some so called fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Snooty Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Decent game yesterday. Infact I'd argue he saved us 2 valuable points at the end. He's been generally ok in the last few games I've seen him to be honest. But once people are in the targets some never escape... He wasn't the only one who made a wayward pass yesterday. But the only one who seems to get the groans that more 'popular' players avoid when they do similarly. There's always one. Always has been. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of his past performances are the cause of negativity he has to win round the doubters that’s all , if he’s good enough he will , not sure he can are you ?

FreshOwl Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 (edited) No idea on the booing but he was dreadful first half, excellent second Edited August 21, 2019 by FreshOwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torres Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Makes it sound like the entire ground erupted with hatred!!! There was the odd groan!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlkestonOwl Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Yep.heard the boos as his name was called before he even kicked a ball.hes not the greatest I know but he isn't going to improve knowing some of his own fans are are writing his game off before he even starts the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My hearing must be bad then , the crowd were impatient when we weren’t going forward at times , there was the odd groan at a misplaced pass but that wasn’t just aimed at Fox was it .

Your right there. We love booing a lad for bad games in previous seasons. Fox could be 9/10 from now till the end of the season but would still get groaned for a miss-placed pass. Just how it is. Nice to see Bullen sticking up for him in the interview though. "Course he might make a mistake. You do when with all the groans. Much better second half when people got behind him." Funny that.
