We have done it before with Nani (who was far less deserving considering what he's achieved with this club).Agreed. Didn't expect that from OT.
Didn't think it was surprising at all. Probably the only time they opened their mouths all game from those who booed him.Agreed. Didn't expect that from OT.
Yeah, it's like a season ticket turns them in to a bunch of self entitled pricks, who think they have the right to boo their own players because they've spent a few quid. Totally forgetting that their job as a football fan is to encourage and get behind your players. But hey, they've paid money and they expect entertainment, right? Maybe be better off going to a pantomime then.Match going fans have a very different opinion of the squad to fans on here.
Or something.
They have more right to boo players than you do to call them self entitled pricks and tell them how they should behave.Yeah, it's like a season ticket turns them in to a bunch of self entitled pricks, who think they have the right to boo their own players because they've spent a few quid.

I remember that, yes. That was really bad, too. There was a debate on the Caf about that, too. I thought that was a frustrated one off.We have done it before with Nani (who was far less deserving considering what he's achieved with this club).
I have never been to OT myself, but I keep hearing and reading about the great atmosphere, especially from the hardcore away- going fans.Didn't think it was surprising at all. Probably the only time they opened their mouths all game from those who booed him.
I'm a match goer too and no they don't have the right and I do have the right to call them self entitled pricks when they embarrass my club, like they did today.They have more right to boo players than you do to call them self entitled pricks and tell them how they should behave.
Most season ticket holders didn't boo him and large numbers applauded to try and drown out the embarrassing fans that did...Yeah, it's like a season ticket turns them in to a bunch of self entitled pricks, who think they have the right to boo their own players because they've spent a few quid.

Agreed and its bang out of order. Classy touch from Mourinho to public back him.It was disgusting to hear that today. Old Trafford was embarrassingly quiet today, you could of heard a pin drop the atmosphere was that bad and then some of the fans have the cheek to get up and boo one of our own players. Please all sell your season tickets and find another club to support.
What was really fecking spectacularly stupid was they could easily have rattled him into repeating a mistake similar to the one he made at Everton. His head must have been all over the place, coming on to that reception. Our own fans contributing to dropped points. Idiots.I just don't see what booing him achieves. It's as clear as day that he made a mess against Everton and that we're by and large dissatisfied with his 101 appearances for us, but is booing him going to get him out of the squad and out of the club any quicker?
Nail. Head.They have more right to boo players than you do to call them self entitled pricks and tell them how they should behave.
Sport has always been pantomime. We create heroes and villains and romantic narratives out of objectively silly things.Maybe be better off going to a pantomime then.
It really wasn't.Old Trafford was embarrassingly quiet today
Oh, I'm not suggesting all season ticket holders did, no way and I was proud of the ones who tried to drown out the boos, with applause. I'm just talking in general that some people believe that having a season ticket, gives them the right to act like spoilt kids.Most season ticket holders didn't boo him and large numbers applauded to try and drown out the embarrassing fans that did...
Not really.They have more right to boo players than you do to call them self entitled pricks and tell them how they should behave.
The exact same right, more like.They have more right to boo players than you do to call them self entitled pricks and tell them how they should behave.
