Please please please will people stop booing the team its not doing the players or the club any good what so ever. All your doing is making the team scared to make mistakes because the second they do your on them like a ton of bricks.every one has paid and are entitled to have an opinion but booing is not the answer. We are playing much better away from home because the pressure is off a little. This is my very first post after months of just reading and i have to say its just not doing the players confidence any good at all.

the only boos were for the Goodwin MOM though?
which was after almost the entire 90 minutes.
not sure how the fans can be blamed (again) for that inept display.

so the booing at full time affected the players performance today?
how does that work?
thought the players performed poorly. and then were booed.
and in that order.
unless i am mistaken?

There is no god given right for Huddersfield Town F.C to win every single football match at home (or away), regardless of whether you have paid your money, jumped over the fence or listened on the radio.

Booing the players just piles on the pressure for the next home game, and makes them terrified of making mistakes. I wouldn't want the ball, knowing that if i made a mistake i'd be booed by thousands of my own fans...
It's an attitude that has crept in to football over the last few years, and it's pathetic.

I could hear booing from the 85th minute and it got louder and louder as we tried to patiently build up attacks only for "supporters" to boo because we weren't launching the ball into the box for an invisible Boothy. I don't understand why you try and defend the booing all the time Floyds - do you boo yourself?

It's a football match not a pantomime, and those are real people out there in the town shirts, not characters. You wouldn't boo them in the street, so don't boo them from the stands either.

Didn't boo today or leave early never have never will, but surely even the most ardent fan of Turnip must be starting to realise after watching approaching 20 games of his brand of football and listening to his thoughts on it we are going absoloutely nowhere under him. I convinced that given the funds at his disposal we are in a worse state now thn under Richie, and I was definately no fan of Richie. The performances this season and style of footbal in particular has been dreadful IMO. I'll get behind the team no matter how bad they play but Turnip is not the answer, I can't fathom why so many people seem to be prepared to cut him so much slack when previous managers with far less resources at their disposal would've been hung out to dry by now.

Im not defending it - i just dont think the fans are to blame for that performance. I thought they were remarkably patient myself, considering what we were watching.
The point i was making, is that booing at the end of the game does not affect how the players performed in the game.
One preceding the other.
How do you not understand this point?
Booing doesnt achieve anything, and i have never booed anyone wearing a town shirt. Gave Glenda some abuse after that howler at Crewe last season but that was about it i reckon ;D
I had gone by full time, but didnt hear any boos when i was in the ground - up to about 86 or 87 minutes....Maybe we sit in different areas? Would be quite a feasible explanation i guess.

Didn't boo, never have done, but can understand the frustartions.
We were awful in the 2nd half, again, and didn't trouble their keeper. We lacked urgency didn't close down, lacked shape and effort at times. Simply wasn't good enough.

The two idiots that sat behind me at leicester match didn't sit there today - thank the lord or I may have been arrested!!! They did sit in FM but further away from me. Different people were sat behind which is good news as the seats are probably not the muppets season ticket seats.

One of our own players had to hide his face under his shirt today because he knew he,d had a bad game he doesnt need us booing at him. How will his confidence be for the next game If he plays

I didn't boo myself but I can understand why they boo with the crap that was played today then they make excuses and tell us to back the team, we do back the team but when we get crap in return what do you expect, they are supposed to be professional and realise that if they don't want to hear the booing they should do something about it, like play with passion and commitment and organisation and skill which is lacking to much at this club, I would love to ask either stan or dean if they are in it for the club or themselves.

Maybe the reason Turnip's pleased with a draw against a very mediocre team is because we're a very mediocre team albeit one he's assembled at probably 5 or 6 times what Bristols has been. Still I suppose I shouldn't expect too much 1 home win by the middle of October is more than acceptable.

Fred i take it you aint a fan then??!!! A little patience is required fella - whilst i cant and wont defend some of the managers actions, the fact is he inherited a squad which wasnt good enough and players he wanted to get rid of/send out on loan havent gone because either no bugger wants em or they earn too much money! Building a new club takes time and we have to be patient this time ...............after all changing the manager many times in last 10/15 yrs hasnt altered much has it!!!

Would be quite a feasible explanation i guess. Fair due pal but the booing started around 5 mins from the end born out of pure frustration. I'd just rather we encourage and only good can come from that.

Perhaps they were booing to vent their frustrations, with the firm belief that by doing so ST would know the crowd are not happy with the one win in six at home. And pity the poor overpaid footballer who might be scared to make a mistake eh! This lot must have been booed alot at their old clubs then eh? I am a professional person. In my line of work both colleagues the company and myself take far damning criticisms week in week out despite trying our level best each and efery day. i wish i got booed instead. Far less paperwork. Surely the adverse reaction to it could be a positive response.When teams get a man sent off you often see how they rally and earn a point or even win, the negative is turned into a positive. And for the majority of the match today we were all behind the team including when rovers scored and the odd decision in taking worthy off. It was only at the end. What did ST expect three cheers... hip hip hurray another home match and no win three cheers for stan.

Booing is pointless but we all get frustrated and, to be fair, there arent many other ways that a fan can get his frustration out ! At least the players can plough into a tackle or lambast a team mate if frustrated.
However, the booing must stop during the game - it did go on during the 90 mins - but it only started after about 87-88 mins. On the whole i thouht the fans were patient for 86 mins - so what excuse the players have for being 'scared to make a mistake' before that i dont know.
Might i add also that if the players are too scared to perform in fear of failure then they ought to have a long look in the mirror and try and show some courage and bravery.

Some of the Town fans were absoloutely pathetic today. A small minority round be booed Williams when he came on. - I don't really rate him but what does putting him, our own player, off achieve???! Then the Goodwin announcement. He knew and everyone knew he didn't deserve it, but what does booing him achieve?! and then after that everytime he got the ball, people near me just booed. They are NOT fans. Anyone who puts their own team off can f*ck off for all I'm concerned. I don't give a toss how much they've paid. If they don't like what they see then my advice to them would be don't come and watch the greedy league back home. If people want to show their frustration AFTER the game and boo or whatever but targeting individuals and during the game is pathetic and no one who does it can ever call themselves a fan. You wonder why we play better away? - 'cos the booing 'fans' don't go to them. :@:@:@:@

Shawsie I'm a passionate fan mate but I'm just frustrated that a massive opportunity for us to progress is about to be squandered. I agree with you totally that we weren't good enough before Ternent came in but can you hand on heart say that for the amount of money spent and numbers of players in we look decidely better. We're still totally unbalance, tactically poor and very short up front. Ternent by his own admission had no knowledge of town and it's players so by that you would have to assume he didn't have much af a knowledge of the kind of players who would come to town. We needed (IMO of course) a few quality additions in key positions signed by a manager with a good knowledge of current League 1/2 and lower championship players. Hindsight is a wonderful thing I know but I just don't think Ternent is the man for us and how long do we give him before we make a change and acknowlege he was the wrong. I think you or me ought to be able to assemble a side capable of 16th place in the 3rd division with 3.2M to spend on wages and a 500k transfer pot.

Booing seems to happen at every game, not just town, Arsenal, Spurs, England etc. It's this crappy generation we're in, spoilt little bastards!!
