The atmosphere in the shed on Friday was eerily similar to the Reebok for the last two years, some of the comments from a group stood behind me were really unpleasant even in the heat of the moment.
I really hope the booing stops because it does little except sour the match day experience IMO.

Can understand the booing at the end however when you are 8 points down with 65 mins to play I don't think it is called for. Even the reception at half time was dire despite being just 2 points behind.

The booing is wrong, plain and simple. Out of interest do any of the group that inhabit the central area of the shed post on here? A lot of the embarassing fans seem to have taken over that area and most of the nagative cr*p comes from that direction.
I've stood in the middle of the shed for 20 years and find it's the best place to watch the game. However, with the poop I have to listen to every week from some of the idiots near me I am seruiously considering moving elsewhere in the ground.

i cant see why everyone is moanin
The fans lift the team or the team lift the fans, if both need lifting which is where we are then you get stuck in a spiral which without a massive change will continue. What makes it worse with our young players this will probably hampen their growth and never probably recover.
Half time 2 points behind if the shed was even half bouncin we'd have kicked on and won it, instead they scored twice (one dodgy forward pass but we'll let that one go as well so thats......... dodgy decitions against 2 dodgy decitions for Nil in two games) and us fans just turned on each other which hurt more than the defeat itself.
Seriously considering not goin to leeds, as its my turn to drive i might go and stay in the pub cant see the point in paying to watch a game when both halfs of the whole believe already we are beaten

It was the worst Salford performance ive ever seen, apart from holdsworth, not a single player looked interested, our pack got battered, and the backs were nothing short of woeful we have had some poop over the years at the Willows but Friday evening summed it up, how are we ever going to attract new fans with shows like that, i fully understand why people don't turn up anymore after so much promising the Majority of fans have had enough and i for one cant blame them. How can you defend that abysmal effort on Friday evening IMO they did deserve everything they got. I know people this year who are missing there first game in years simply because they can not be arsed to waste there hard earned money on that, I was embarrassed today in work people coming up to me asking me how they went on Friday that shouldn't be the case. As a Salford fan i am use to loosing but Fridays game was a insult to us fans.
