Just read a quote from a Brentford forward saying "their lads were scared, if the lost the ball or put it out the fans would boo them, then they would crumble" and I do remember Charlie Adam saying "at villa park if you keep them quiet for 15 minutes the fans turn on them", I personally don't think this is true, heard the team being boo'd after the final whistle loads of times when they've played like a Sunday league team put together with 11 blokes who had never met each other and spoke different languages, but I don't think we get on their backs unless they repeatedly make mistakes.
Professional players should be able to perform at a certain level and be able to cope with some booing, it should not make their ability drop to that of a 5 year old who can't be bothered.

Too be fair mate! if ANY other team in English football had our home and away record this last five years they would be the same. Football fans boo when players perform badly unless you are a Arsenal fan who boo when they are 2nd in the league lol
Fans pay good money and i think we have won something like 11 home games (Maybe less) in around 100 games.
