and people moan about the 14year olds in H block. Most of the name calling at half time yesterday was grown men

Can't remember a game with as much abuse as that - felt a bit sorry for Elphick to be honest, although it wasn't all directed at him.

Not really the players need to understand what fans think, we were abjectly crap in defence and it is getting beyond a joke.
Perhaps we should have sung "oh what a beautiful day" and applauded the farcical defending.

The paying customer has a right to boo and moan if he/she so wishes. We pay their wages and if there not performing week after week after week then you can expect it TBH.

If you can't boo when you've conceded 3 goals at home in one half when can you bloody boo?

The defence definitely deserved booing, unprofessional shit schoolboy defending deserves nothing else. I have no doubt the players knew who the booing was aimed at. The players lap up the plaudits when they come they have to take the shit when the performance is unacceptable.
If we'd been 3-0 down after 15 mins and come back to 3-2 at halftime they would probably have got a big cheer of encouragement. But the way it happened was just appallingly bad defending and the fans showed their disapproval. And we didn't lose did we?
By the way, it worked for Millwall a few years ago - 1-0 down at HT, booed off the pitch and came back to beat us. Sometimes the fans are the best motivators.

I was more shocked by some people CLAPPING them off...

Millwall didn't beat us in the second half-they completely battered us.
I didn't boo them off yesterday simply because I couldn't be bothered. Any more performances like that though and I will.
We lost the first half 3-2 due to silly mistakes. After the booing we came out and won the second half 1-0.
Perhaps we should have booed before the game?

To be honest, as a footballer, and a football coach/manager, you should be able to handle such unrest from your own supporters. People don't Boo when they do well, do they!

That is because our defense was breached twice in comical fashion inside a few minutes. That is simply not good enough. The folks around me were "speechless" at the interval, we couldn't quite believe what we were seeing.

I boo'd, because defensively we were an absolute joke in that first half. I felt sorry for the likes of Bennett, Forster and Dickinson who were working their BOLLOCKS off to get us back in that game, only for our defence to hand the game back to Hartlepool on a plate with some amateurish, unbelievably slack play. A complete lack of organisation, positional awareness, and worst of all, concentration. And as it turned out, they cost three people their jobs that afternoon.
They f***ing deserved every boo they got.

The defence certainly did. (Question - do you include Hoyte in that?)
Like you said, the midfield and forwards worked very hard, I thought.
