Oh fuck off mate. At one point, Liam Lawrence used to play for us. Stupid comment. Not nearly as stupid as yours. He's an opponent. Fucking boo him. Boo him for being absolutely wank for us last year too. Booo booo booo. Who gives a fuck apart from old reach around you? i think the answer to the mentality of those who did it lies right here

If going to boo an opposition player do it properly and with justification (being an ex player isn't one) Danny Rose was destroyed by the crowd here
Smallbone got moderate but persistent booing, it was so fucking tame, embarrassing
For me returning ex players should either get applause at the beginning of the match, or when they come off Won't be many in this category Or booed loudly and relentlessly for twattish behaviour, Tony Ellis got both barrels quite rightly Won't be many in this category Or pretty much ignored Vast majority

Catching up on the thread:
1. Smallbone is too insignificant to boo, I'm sure he's as confused as I am about why elevated his importance.
2. Am I missing something - why would we boo-urns Vardy?

It made me laugh when they sang he left cos you're shit.
Suppose it's catchier than 'he left because his loan period expired and he returned to his parent club'

All it does is fire the player up. Stupid. That was Smallbone fired up last night then was it? I remember him being fired up for us pretty much every week then. He was utter wank for us, and even though I wouldn't boo him, I don't see any issue with football fan's booing a player who was wank while he was here. You're all falling into the trap of believing Stoke fans are different to any other set of fans..... We aren't. A minority it has to be said there were a few boos and then a few more when the flock caught up.The general consensus around me was disappointment.Totally counterproductive if they had the wit to realise it.

We’ve got bigger problems than our own fans taking offence at our own fans booing But it sums up the 21st century nicely 🏳️⚧️ No one has taken offence, just pointed out how ridiculous they made themselves look

Am sure he's over a few fans making noises noises when he touched the ball, let's be honest. Luckily none of our players are as wank as him and are showing him how its's done

He played a disciplined role and started a lot of what they did well.Thats why he is playing regularly and isn't anonymous.I really don't understand how anyone can't conceive how booing somebody won't motivate them to raise their game.He wasn't 99% anonymous as you know,but we had a couple that were.

Absolutely The worrying thing is that he would walk into our current midfield so maybe the insults don't really work As for saying he wanted to stay at Soton , cant blame him in any way for that.

That is the worrying thing, AN loved him. He was everything he was last season, a periphery figure who was neat and tidy but didn't actually do much.

FWIW, Smallbone has been getting absolute pelters from Saints fans this season for being mainly hopeless but seemingly undroppable. I’ve seen their messageboard, it’s an absolute carbon copy of ours last year. People calling for the manager’s head for insisting on starting him etc.
He seems to be one of those stats-y players that managers and coaches adore but have fans pulling their hair out every time they’re on the team sheet. Either way don’t get any impressions he’s turned into some sort of superstar down there, they don’t want him in the team any more than we did.

I'd have every single one of our midfielders in the team ahead of him, bar Laurent who has been beyond awful this season.

Will Smallbone deleted his ‘X’ account after social media abuse.
Chin up lad.
Apparently got it after the Liverpool loss
