Hating Your Own Fans?

Do you ever sit during a game and think "our fans are fecking idiots"?

I was sitting at Tannadice on Saturday thinking (and eventually saying it out loud) after our fans behaved like a bunch of halfwits during the game.

Basically the keeper had clearly been instructed to pass the ball out to feet every time he got it. And understandably so - up top we had McKay, Spittal and Telfer, and none of them are likely to ever win a header from a punt up the park.

Yet our fans decided they didn't like it and started booing the keeper and the team for doing it.

Despite the fact that each time the keeper did it we kept possession, and each time he punted it we lost it.

Despite the fact that we're bottom of the league and the players clearly have fragile confidence as it is.

Absolute fandans man.

Totally agree Ivan.

I actually ended up in a small argument with a couple of fans beside me for them going mad at the keeper every single time.

Ffs, even as the ball rolled out for a goal kick the fans started going mental, how much pressure were we putting the keeper under?

Plus half the fans leaving after the 2nd goal with only 79 minutes on the clock..thats the way to help a team off the bottom.

Honestly thought the fans were a bit of a joke on Saturday.

One of the reasons I changed my seat from downstairs in the ET stand was the guff I had to endure every week...
