People do boo for no reason sometimes. Search Ross Noble Booing on a certain well known video site, and you'll see what I mean.

i think if you've payed your money you have every right to boo that garbage that is being turned out on the pitch, me and my mate stu sit in the east stand and there seem to be a lot of as he calls them 'clapping monkeys' who clap as though we have just beaten saints not lost to wakey or whoever we happen to be playing
when noble says it's encouraging that we managed to catch the ball 3 times out of ten, is when i wonder if i could have spent my £200 on something better, if you'd turn out a team of under 11s they can at least do the basics rather than some should be retired foriegner letting players just push past him and score.
my mate stu says mathers, noble and smith should be stripped to the waist whipped then paraded around the ground whilst all the real fans boo them.
i don't think he goes far enough i think birching should be dished out on the pitch!!!

getting worried about you an your mate stu

No issues with the booing, although i would never do it myself. I prefer a stern shake of the head

And lets face it, currently they do not deserve cheering do they?

I have booed in the past and I booed on Friday as imo they deserved it.

let me first say i have been watching wigan over 50 yrs and never boo them,always stand up and applaud the team,after all they are my team.in todays wigan observer ian lennigan is having a go at the boo boys,well he should understand that this is a free country and everyone is allowed their own opinion.don't forget we pay to watch the game,he also says the fans should get behind the team.well IL you have 10k season ticket holders plus the weekly support does that not proove we support our team even though they have not given us much reason over the last few years.i think IL is a little self opinionated and it would do him good if he took a realistic view of what is going on.last season IL was at loggerheads with some of the players trent barrett in particular.he actually made his views public,so it is ok for him to do it but not the supporters,that to me seems a little two faced.

I think this post needs a thread of its own
