I like Scott Kerr, like his attitude and leadership qualities. However, in the last few games he looks tired, slow, and seems to have lost the ability to pass and hit a dead ball. He has gone down in my estimation with this tweet. Perhaps people shouldn't moan and boo, and I do believe (having watched since the 70's) that we are quite fickle as a fan base overall (though not sure if this is any different to other teams?), but he needs to look at himself and get his head down and drive on until the end of the season.
Give or take a few comments, our support is fantastic, 3000 - 4000 most home games, and lucky to see three or four attempts on goal, hundreds at each away game who spend a fortune to get there.
How lucky are our players to have this backing? Perhaps they would prefer a few hundred fans, no moans and no atmosphere?

The abuse can get much more personal the fewer fans that are there, and much more easily heard by the player involved.....

Im wondering if this sort of thing will make them prove to us or shut us up with a good performance. If I was being criticised I would play even harder to try and get them on my side sometimes it only takes one person to do this and lead by example and others raise their game to match yours. Does that makes sense if one of the best players is having an off day the rest do as well but when on fire the others follow. Maybe im just talking horse manure lol

Bang on. Wonder why you never hear anyone ever say a bad word against someone like Shaun Pearson? because he'd run through a brick wall for the club. If every player in the squad could say the same no-one would ever boo them off... (PS - I don't condone booing. I do condone people who pay their ticket money being able to voice their frustrations constructively).

At what point does his tweet suggest he's having a go at Town fans...? He suggests that Everton fans might boo THEIR team off.. The fickle nature of the modern football supporter.
Few people protesting too much...

I can understand some criticism of abilities but I really don't think it's fair to question the work ethic of this squad is it?

Fans voice their opinions of the players, why shouldn't the players voice an opinion on the fans?

No I don't. I could, as many have already on this thread, jumped to a conclusion that it's a thinly veiled swipe at Town fans, but I don't know that. The only person that knows whether it is or not is Scott Kerr.
