did anybody see sams reaction when we let that try in on the stroke of half time,a fan stood in the corner had a go at gleesen for not making a taclke yet again the fan simply shouted at gleesen that it was every week now and he needs to sought it sam was more intrested in finding who was saying this and trying to report it to a steward to get this person thrown out(this person had paid is money and deserves is opinion),when he should be concentrating on the game in hand

I see your point, however it does show he cares about his team mate. We need em all showing that as a team they are bothered, if Sam has just shrugged that would have been a worse reaction IMO.

Players should not get involved with fans during the game.

Agreed, although when the numpty behind us who was effing and jeffing at the top of his voice throughout the whole match called Glenn Hall a 'fu*king girl', I was secretly hoping he'd vault the wall and leather him.

I don't know many people who would say that to The Rig's face

I remember Tony Garforth of Halifax having to be restrained by a team mate from climbing over the wall into the stand at Thrum Hall to get a at a Trinity fan who'd been giving him some stick.

Cantona didn't agree

I tend not to vocally slate players but sometimes I'll single out a father figure in the coach or Captain with the odd shout of "Get the lads fired up" or "Not good enough" etc.

I know the lads know when it's not going well but if I didn't shout at my nipper when he's spilled coke on the floor he'd think I didn't care.

Never get sick of watching that, seeing the Palace fan in total shock cos he thought he was safe giving loads of abuse from the stands!

Paul Ince landed some decent punches on the fan as well

i remember matt fuller hitting a fan when walking off after defeat at carlise,(in his first spell)

I'll never forget Brian Clough smacking some supporter who gobbed off at him many years ago - think it was reported as a case of "the s**t hitting the fan"
