Birstall Owl Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 When I firsted started going in 86 I seem to remember when Megson's name was read out there used to be some booooooos, I presume this was due to him leaving for Forest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sultan_Pepper Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Mostly proving the boo boys wrong. Woods Atherton, Thome, Fox, Reach Brunt, Whelan, Sheridan, Antonio Nuhiu, Hooper I'd add Helan as a sub but most people seem to have forgotten how good he could be on his day and it kind of stuck.

Kendo Nagasaki Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 The 2 that stand out the most for me were Larry May Morgan Fox The ones that deserved it the most for me were Bothroyd Abdi 2 people that showed so much disrespect for our club UTO 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibbo48 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Chris Morris is the only stand out name for me. That he went on to have such a successful career after he left is astounding 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both got tagged with the "lazy" tag that the boo boys seem to trot out whenever a player isn't running round getting booked every 5 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toppOwl Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Holding midfielders are the players fans usually love to hate, they do the breaking down the opposition/tidying up work that doesn't really catch the eye so are fair game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lambownumber5 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Not sure this counts and it's a bit of an admission but my old man's a Rotherham fan and would be harangued into taking me to Millmoor by my mum. As a young un one of the things that shocked and saddened me a little was seeing the horrendous abuse that ex Owl Dez Hazel would be given by some of the nuckle draggers and simpletons there. It was so bad that they'd even boo him when he started warming up, then when he came on and finally when inevitably things didn't go his way on the pitch; they'd be whipped into frenzy. He was given dogs abuse, it felt like a proper bear pit at times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legendaryswan Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Brian Joicey ,he shouldered a lot of the blame for us not scoring under Burtenshaw, moved onto Barnsley and hit virtually a goal every two games. Brian Usher was my earliest memory of a player getting dogs abuse, so much so he was subbed off in the scrubbers game, and Pritchett the blunts correspondent in the star devoted a fair chunk of his column that week to the incident. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
