It's a fans way of showing displeasure, what other medium is there for showing you are unhappy with certain things? As fans we clap and cheer when things are going well and are expected to still clap and cheer when things aren't? Today, I think the boos were more general boos brought on as a result of a monumental build up of frustrations that peaked with Pieters pass backwards rather than being aimed directly at him. The back pass today looked like his only option at the time to be honest. Not the point anyway, booing a particular player can be confidence destroying. Why would we do that to our own player? Also, Fletcher probably passes back more than Pieters, it's just he has become the boo boy. It's naturally going to happen though be it right or wrong. I personally haven't or won't boo an individual player but will boo the team as a whole if I think that it is deserved. (And possibly the manager ) I just really don't agree with some peoples thought that we should "support the team" no matter how badly we are playing and implying that some people are less of a fan for showing Thier displeasure than those who blindly clap like seals like everything's okay when clearly it isn't

Plenty of ways shouting at the players being one of them booing doesnt help at all. Like shouting by an individual is going to be heard by those who need to hear it? What is the difference then between shouting abuse and booing? Like I have just said in reply to yes, I personally wouldn't boo an individual player singly but also understand that if somebody wants to then that is their prerogative

If you're going to start implying that thousands upon thousands of paying fans (who are frustrated with 22 months of abject crap) aren't worthy of being called fans because they let out a bit of frustration while we were behind and playing poorly to a side in the bottom three, we may as well pack up. If all the people who booed today stopped turning up, we'd be back in the lower leagues before the end of the decade. That’s a fair comment if you replace the word (fans) with customers.

Eric gives his all, thought he played well second half. He always shows his appreciation to the fans at full time. He did not deserve the treatment he got first half. We are supposed to be supporters. Hang your heads in shame if you booed Eric.

booing a player and then expecting him to play better as a result - the actions of an imbecile. Proves yet again we have some complete tools within our mist. Person thinking that people booing a certain player believe that by doing so it will make said player play better - the thoughts of an imbecile. Proves yet again we have some complete tools within our midst not mist. Sorry I missed a "d" out. here's another one just for you..... peDant

I'm sure booing him will make him a better player. Certain of it.

Anybody who boos their own team or even individual players, no matter how bad things get
I find generally are, badly brought up, knuckle dragging morons who, at very best
can only hope to aspire to rise to the level of
'cretinous'
and the words 'thick as pigshit' come to mind

Play a full back at full back and suddenly he looks solid..... revalation!. The paradox is that we have to move zouma to right back which makes him look ordinary!.

Then they abuse him for keeping the ball. He can't win with these wankers no matter what he does. He tucked inside to cover an absent BMI at one point and was abused for "supposedly being a full back, where the fuck are you". You won't be surprised to learn that the same tossers said nothing about zouma being inside all fucking game long. Wankers!

I'm not a huge Pieters fan but imagine how that made him and the team feel? Shocking. Seemed to inspire him, he was a different player second half I didn't boo him by the way!

Like I said earlier Mart, I don't think the mass booing after his backpass was aimed directly at him, I think it was more a build up of frustration that boiled over when he completed that pass. I obviously can't say anything about what people around you were saying.

If you are FAN or SUPPORTER, you don't single out individual players and boo them. Boo a team performance if you must, but don't single out our OWN players.

Thing is, I think he's an old-fashioned FB, and he's not a bad one. This new-fangled WB malarky is just not his game. Anyone actually booing him is showing themselves up to be stupid, shallow and ignorant. This is my opinion, and anyone who disagrees is obviously an idiot. (I've written this a bit like it's a joke, but it's actually true....) Spot on. He is a 30 year (ish) defender first and foremost. Hughes has tried to change a leopards spots, he's hung him out to dry and laid him bear to becoming sacrificial lamb for his own inept skills at developing a game plan that allows players to perform to their individual skill sets, strengths etc

Who booed Eric Pieter's you're a fucking disgrace I was going title the thread to all the supporters who...but I couldn't class you as that because you are not Fuck off. He's been shit and deserves to be told. He actually did alright today and responded well to the criticism Just about shows your fucking class that answer does son... not to mention your understanding of the game We have a full back being forced by the management team into a role he is not familiar with, he has been asked to play wing back and exposed to a side of his game that he is not comfortable, we switch back to a flat back four over night that takes the players time to settle back in to....... yet you think it was the dogs abuse given out by the fuck tards in the crowd that forced him in to a better second half. Martin's indie showed exactly what he thought of yours and your Rent a mobs inspirational team building actions when he gave the boothen end a right bollocking for booing the only option open to Eric with a back pass. As I say a fucking disgrace, classless people booing one of our own are not supporters they are nothing more than customers stamping their feet for not getting value for money. For what it's worth I am as pissed off as most with the team performances and results of late, I will admit that some players have not responded well to the current formation, but to boo a stoke city FC player out there wearing the stripes...fucking never.
