| Didn't it make you proud to be a Wiganer?
I'm not sure what was more disappointing - that it was going on at all, or that the game was so boring, people thought the mob-taunting of one individual was more interesting.

| Really didn't read too much into it, just a bit of booing when he got the ball?
No big deal...

| All I heard was a fair bit of booing, and good on those that were booing, he's still a Saints player after all.

Historical revisionism in RL. Who'd have thought it?
At the end of the day, I'm sure he wasn't that bothered. But it still bugs me to hear Wiganers - even a small bunch of them - dispaying the sort of childish excesses I normally associate with Wire fans.

| I did cringe a bit. He's done nothing bad as a rl player that warrants calling him a w**ker.

No, they're the only ones who boo players who are supposed to be on their side.

Its very different when you boo a player in a league game. Leeds fans booed a player playing for England.
You can all boo Sam all you like when hes playing for Wigan but if hes playing for England its not on.
I dont mind a bit of booing of Foster but if it was anything more like some are saying then not so fair enough ha.

It's a bit of pantomime fun. Anything that goes past that is taking it too far, but luckily I didn't hear anything bad, although I'm sure there were some people shouting abuse somewhere, it happens at every single game you've ever attended or are ever likely to attend.

| Think I'm gonna have to go for a hearing test. Only heard a bit of booing for Foster for his first few touches and not a clue what that other guy is on about on the other thread about racial abuse of Sam Moa?

It's unreserved seating, you can choose whether to sit near them or not.

| I think his image and even social media presence has done him no good and that's why he got more attention than most other saints rejects.
Oh and he was a Wigan fan, wasn't he?
On his performance - I thought he had a shocker. The lad just has no bottle. His footballer image goes well with his lack of grit IMO.

| I wondered why people were booing him - he isn't a great player like Long or Martyn or Tomkins, and hasn't done anything to Wigan such as Ryan Bailey or Mathers. Seems stupid we should spend any time on him. He's just an average player with an above average ego.
