    Have you and loading been to many games this season?

    You’re making out like the fans have been abusing him non-stop. That’s not the case at all. In general our support has been pretty positive again despite us being generally terrible.
    I’m sure he’ll be fine.

    I agree with support being positive but I do not agree we have been terrible every game. The performance against Boro was excellent and showed the progress being made. Fans have been patient with Downs but they are also savvy enough to realise he is not as good as Mara.

    If you booed Downs coming on today you're a disgraceful ****ing ****cunt and I wish you nothing but cholera.

    Good to see a lot of people were disgusted by it and called it out.

    Utterly shameful. Worst part of a terrible evening.

    I wouldn’t boo a saints player, but no doubt he is the worst player I’ve ever seen play for us.

    Atrocious footballer

    Yeah it would be nice to see Downes actually try and prove his doubters wrong, by putting some effort in. Try sprinting or something, at least make it look like you’re trying son.

    Totally agree. The problem is that a lot of our fans are turning us into West Ham 2.0
    Downs is a 21 year old kid ffs.
    Did Archer get booed after missing a one on one tonight? No

    There are levels though.

    Archer looks like a footballer. A bad one, but still a footballer.

    Downs looks like someone has jumped on the pitch from the crowd

    I hate to have to agree, but it does look like that at times!

    And to think I thought no one could be worse than BBD in a Saints shirt.

    SR managing to plumb new depths every season. ****ing heroes
