Well Stereo and Pud. I know from past posting that Stereo will always take opposite view to me so nothing changes.
People sometimes read internet posts, believe it or not.
Internet posts often go over the top abusing, showing hatred ridiculing individual players. We even had a poster on here who showed his hatred for Sameras by his crudely written signature.
Although unfortunately Celtic fans have for years adopted, what was basically Rangers fans habits of booing and abusing their own players. As I say some of our so called fans have been doing it for a number of years but recently in the last five or six or so seasons it has certainly been getting a lot worse every season. I wonder, and I certainly cannot say for sure, but I wonder is the extreme abuse some of our players receive in part due to what some fans read on the forums.
Did big Dan's mistake on Thursday come about by Sunday's abuse been in his head. Obviously we don't know and will never know. Someone said if they can't take the abuse they shouldn't be playing.. But why should they.
I think we should criticize our players if we feel they deserve it. However I don't think there is any excuse for been abusive. I just cannot understand the mentality of spending big money on season books/match tickets and abusing our players. It cannot help our team and surely that is why we are fans/supporters.
