Why?

What does this achieve?

Even if we were bottom I wouldnt boo the team but as we are in a top position I find it pretty stupid really.

We do not have the God given right to win every game and we must learn that the standard below us is improving now that the majority of the teams are using the full cap (especially as we are not).

Get over it and get behind the team when we are losing.

Its a disgrace the booing its not needed.

While I would never do it, I think people pay their money and give up their time, and I think they have a right to show that they are not happy.

It's because half this lot dont know what its like to follow a losing team. Success has spoilt them to the point where they boo after a couple of defeats.

If they decided not to go anymore they wouldnt be missed.

Same old dull argument. People pay the money, they can boo if they want, maybe it'll get through to the team and they will realise they have to try a bit harder and people don't accept mediocrity.

You wouldn't boo the team if they were bottom and got 50 points put on them by Cas?

Right.

i agree emma. i didn't boo but can understand those who did.

people cheer when they are happy, people boo when theyare upset
are u fick or sumfink?

Or maybe those more knowledgeable fans give credit to the opposition where it's due?

kinda split on this one, yeah you should get behind you team. however the team should be playing up to its ability, which simply wasn't the case today.

as with many others i didn'tboo, however i wasn't embarrassed by those who did. unlike many other cases of our fans booing e.g. booing harris

Its nothing to do with the opposition to be fair. If Leeds played against a side and played 100% with enthusiasm but lost, then they wouldn't be booed. If they didn't, like tonight, then they will.

ATEOTD we are in the middle of a recession, and people are counting their pennies. The level of unemployment is going up, and it aint cheap to get into Headingley now.

People are entitled to show if they are not satisfied with something that they have paid for.

Correct.

i think it was the fact this was the second home display in a short time where we were very poor

No, I wouldnt.

Are the players going to all of a sudden think wait a minute, lets ply better because they are getting on our backs?

Anyway regardless of that, we are still joint 2nd FFS!! I didnt hear the Saints fans boo thier team tonight even though they lost to the worst Bulls team in History.

Tonight was an embarressment, especially as we had guests who went into the SS to taste a bit of the atmosphere they played in front of 10 yeasrs ago.
