Okay so what is the level when this should happen?

After today's effort where a good portion clapped off two "well known players" are we going to do this every single match now just because we once picked them in a fantasy football team?

Personally I'm happy to give a decent England player a small ripple of applause but the foreigners? No thanks.

If we are going to stay up this season we need to make the AMEX a cauldron, not a flipping cricket match.

I thought exactly the same. Bloody ridiculous.

Mind you I was surrounded by mums and dads and little kids. A lot of the crowd weren't regulars today

During the match I hope we're on their backs and just getting behind the Albion but after the game I don't see a problem in showing appreciation for world class players?

Yes, but that doesn't suit the spuktrumpets agenda.

It was a friendly. What's wrong with showing appreciation to one of Europe's best teams and some of Europe's best players for agreeing to play at the Amex?
