Is it that they have all featured as scapegoat of the week at some point this season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it that they have dared to acknowledge and to react to a needless "venting of opinion" otherwise known as "abuse". I've been lucky enough to have been around a championship clubs set up and have a tiny not of first hand knowledge of how players feel and their opinion of the people doing it. I will say this. There will be players at this club, like many in the championship, we are not alone in this respect, who hate and I mean hate a small element of our support. One player I knew at this club got so much abuse as a scapegoat that if he had gone to press with his true feelings he would have been lynched.

Warren Hobhead Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 As an aside, I remember Butters in with us away fans at Leeds where he was first class and behind his teammates. Shocking clobber though. He gave a minority of mouthy fans a bit back on Monday. Good on him. Least he gives a toss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the number 6 becomes an accepted fact, has it been confirmed or is there any decent evidence that Butterfield was having a pop at the home fans as well as the away fans? I can’t find the post now, but I recall someone on here who was closer to the action posting that Butterfield was obviously leaning (or straining…I can’t remember the exact words) in the direction of the away fans. If that's true then that it sounds like he was reacting to the mocking chants he had been getting from the away fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Yes I was just letting some of the Derby fans know that us players think that they are complete bell ends" Disclaimer: I most likely misheard what he actually said.

All he said in his post match interview was that he was getting stick and reacted, did not say who to. Let's assume he wasn't reacting to Derby fans, that's only 5 then...puts us in a much better light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footballers almost always do that to wind up the oppo fans. I would expect some better evidence if it was also directed towards his own fans. For example, the intent was pretty obvious when Keogh snapped that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
