I was booooooing Lamptey, he completely disappeared for the last 20 minutes.

[Albion] Why did the boos happen and/or who was targeted?

I didn’t hear any at the end of the game as I was out the stadium the moment the **** of a ref put his whistle to his fat gob, but I think the boos when maupay went off was not for maupay, it was for the ridiculous decision to take him off and replace him with a truly dreadful player! We could easily have taken off Gross and put the DJ up front with maupay as after all we were supposedly trying to win the game.

Didn't boo and didn't hear any booing.
Far more concerned about the ever increasing number of banners begging for players' shirts that are being held up.

Mostly cumulative frustration out of the last 3/4 games in particular…..missed chances and missed opportunities to really get points in the bag against poor teams. If last night’s game had been on the back of a couple of wins I really don’t think it would have happened. Would have been frustration at dropped points and bemoaning hitting the woodwork 3 times etc, but not booing because otherwise the performance was good.
Was there until after the final whistle and I have to say that from the north stand I could not hear any booing and no one mentioned it on the coach afterwards, so I assume it was a minority and not around me, my view on the subject is shame on those who did boo as the game apart from not scoring was probably one of the best this season
Is this turning into Schrödinger's boo? Nobody appears to have booed or heard booing but it apparently happened enough for Potter to be quizzed and subsequently throw us under the bus for it.

I didn't either. It really must have been about 10/20 people (kids, probably). Now because GP made a fuss and tarred our entire fan base based on the actions of those, the media are treating it as if we threw a pigs head on the pitch
To me it sounded like the North.
I don’t boo the Albion, it’s the equivalent of screaming at your kids, they can frustrate but you still love them.

I think we should always remember where we came from.
That was real pain and frustration, well for me anyway.

It was coming from the area around the tunnel. That's why Potter heard it and commented on it. He was shaking his head and could be seen saying "they're booing". He subsequently gave oxygen to the story by saying we were "fantastic". I feel that fantastic is reserved for convincing wins, or heroic draws away at Fortress Anfield and similar.. Describing a 0-0 home draw against a shit team where we missed an ocean liner load of chances as fantastic puts him alongside Bumble's 'we flippin' murdered' em" against Zimbabwe.

So WSL or 1901? wouldn’t surprise me to have been certain elements in the 1901.

I didn't hear any boos but was half way down the stairs on the way out.
Silly really, the performance was largely excellent. Sanchez kept us in it towards the end but we go again. Disappointing to hear of people booing when the players worked so hard.

I agree 100%. And I feel I need to say I did not and would not boo. A brilliant performance but, as per usual, cannot score in a brothel.
The club’s leaders are to blame for not addressing the oh so ****ing obvious problem with the squad

So we shouldn't complain about things as fans because we used to be a much smaller club than we are now? Does this mean by extension fans of other clubs who used to be bigger than they are now (e.g. Leeds, Massive) should be cut some slack and shown sympathy? Does it mean we can't have a good laugh at the delusional elements of the Man Utd and Arsenal fanbase (and up until recently Liverpool) whinging because they aren't winning every game anymore? Is this the end of #TeamsLikeBrighton?
To me it sounds like a bullshit way for a club hierarchy to try and use a "Get Out Of Jail Free Card" for the shortcomings on the pitch in recent times and off the pitch (in certain areas) for much longer. We aren't in the Premier League because we won a spot in a phone in competition on Talksport, we're here because we deserve to be from the way we've improved over the last 10-15 years consistently and as such fobbing us off with "remember your history" is bollocks, IMHO.

Right so we've now ruled out "being in an inflated league position despite not winning for over two months" and "involved in a Premier League relegation battle and not winning games against the really shite teams in the league" as two of the occasions when we're not allowed to complain. I refer you to the question I asked previously, at what point would complaining then be permitted? After relegation? Mid-table Championship? League 1?
