Not sure what you are getting at. I have been going on the Turf since 1952 and have NEVER shouted abuse at any player, Claret or opponent, because it is totally unnecessary.
All I was doing was pointing out that the Chairman is correct because it has always been the case that some fans will pick out a player and he becomes a scapegoat. In recent times, Marney, Hendrick and McNeil have received their fair share of abuse ---- there have been so many more over the last 74 years. Marney's first season here was ridiculous because so many fans didn't realise just what a good player he was and it only became apparent the season that he picked up the injury.

Support is what is needed, certainly not abuse!

I’m not criticising you Sub. Sorry if I’m not expressing myself as I intend. I agree with you. But many supporters think it’s their right to hurl abuse. It doesn’t matter if others are even worse. If someone thinks they are supporters but hurl abuse they are not supporting but tearing down what needs to be built.

Exactly, WillPark, however, this is where human frailties come into play and these days it seems much worse than it used to be. I know not why that is the case, however, money may have a lot to do with it.
