I would very much like to hear Beaver and Morro's take on it. The honest take, not whatever is spun for the press releases.

If those two - who will have played under excellent coaching staff and will surely have a pretty good idea of what a good and effective coach looks like, as well as being pretty clued-up guys - backed Macca, then I sure would.

If they - being honest - did not, then I'd say it would be a no-brainer.

I doubt we'll ever hear what they really think in public, obviously, although there WAS maybe a hint from Morro about Halley vs Platt last week. The views of those two guys would probably settle this bloody argument once and for all, IMO.

Maybe they have already been asked?

I did not boo and never have. Whatever reason the booers had for doing so (against players, coaches, club management) it is non-specific and thus ineffective. Contacting the club with the focus of their concerns might be.
There were players who did not deserve critisism, how then should they be included in this sweeping condemnation.
I did stay till the end and was heartened to see many of the players come across to the stand and applaud. This IMO was not to seek absolution or garner self plaudits. They appauded us the supporters.
Whats not to like about this ? Takes a bit of courage.

It did indeed the pictures of the hordes of supporters streaming out said more than a thousand words. Also the club face the tough job of getting the fans back through the gate for the Celtic game.

You must be joking. That's a real four pointer and one that we have an outside chance of winning.

I didn't boo and never have booed my side.

However I did leave early and I've never done that before either.

I sat there frozen to death and bloody miserable and quiet (unusual for me) till the bitter end.

For the first time ever I went early it was on the hour mark when Chris Hicks strolled in for the try. It was just a spur of the moment thing I could watch any more of the drivel on offer.

Near me a good 40 to 50 left at the same time

Must admit some sympathetic neutrals watching it on TV did say they were surprised I stayed till the end. Guess I just felt it was the right thing to do. Or the dumb thing...?

I booed in Walkabout in Wigan, it was my tribute to the Wigan fans who watch Wigan home games in there and shout 'forward!' and 'gerrum onside!' at the telly.. and also boo.
