Sullivan's message to West Ham supporters
|
"I would just urge all supporters to get behind the team at home, because I think the nerves of the crowd and the little bit of booing before half-time is unsettling the players, it's not helping you know. It doesn't spur them on to play well, it destroys their confidence. So I would urge every supporter, if you can't get behind them and applaud them, don't come because we don't need it you know.
But the away supporters they've been absolutely wonderful and that's the support we want and sometimes you're going to lose and you still need that support."

He has a point to an extent, but you'd expect anyone receiving x amount of thousands of pounds a week to be professional enough to get on with their job and do it to the best of their ability regardless.

About 10,000 cunts at the last home game

I thought the booing for the ref's performance not the shit our players were serving up?

He's got a point, hopefully he backs it up by signing the quality needed to support the team. Song and Moses would help massively.

Maybe if he didn't bang on about breaking in to the top six, the fans won't have such high expectations of outplaying the likes of Leicester and Bournemouth at home.

He needs to understand WHY people boo. Telling them not to bother coming is avoiding the problems, not addressing them.

Oh well that's 10k down in the OS then.... in all seriousness this is on par with old Mrs Cake Baker and her `lets be 'aving you' at Norwich

He has a massive point. Always been 100% against booing.
Yes, you pay the money and you have the right. But that doesn't mean it's the right thing to do.
No good has EVER come from booing. Yes, it vents a bit of frustration, but it is bad for the team you're meant to be supporting.

They were also booing the water breaks which I thought was crass in the extreme

Cringe! Sounds like we need some players with balls if they're so easily upset. Put simply you're a bit of a tool if you boo the team but this sort of outburst is embarrassing.
