Some say nothing and just walk out & come back for the next game.
Some just stand there at the end stunned.
Some even clap their team at the end.
Some shout abuse in frustration and hurt,but come back the next game.
Some boo and walk out fuming,but come back the next game.
Some just walk out and dont come back for a long time, till they are winning again.
very good point annis, i get what your saying.
but tbh i'd rather the 'boo boys' didnt return. that type of thing is toxic to a football club and can't have any kind of positive effect on the players
I understand your point as well regarding them![]()
But I dislike these ones the most

But this season like 2 years ago we have spent £10m+ on players so it's not unreasonable for expectation levels to be high.
The problem is not just that we have a hangover, from a fans perspective, from last season but it's the level of performance at the start of this season. Bringing high numbers of new players into the squad this summer is no different to the situation 2 years ago but at this stage then we were 5th in the League.
Of greater concern is our performance against the main match statistics which show that overall possession this season is 48.3% which is the lowest, at this stage, in any season since we returned to the Championship. The average attempts at goal (10) is also the joint lowest since we returned to the Championship and opponents average attempts at goal (17) is the highest of any season since our return to the Championship.
Despite spending £12m this summer we are left with a team struggling to keep possession, struggling to get attempts on our oppnents goal and really struggling to stop our opponents having attempts at ours.
I respect your view on giving OGS 12 games, I really do, but I'm worried about our performances to date especially after spending so much money. It's really not very good.
