Everyone knows it's the fan's prerogative to boo as well as cheer - but fans posting with relative anonymity on social media has taken this to a whole new level.
With consequences (of course!)
On a daily basis in recent years I've seen hurtful and derisive abuse heaped on ostensibly quite decent people, such as the likes of our own Parker, Kelly, Lewie Brown, Suli, and all the rest.
What, if anything, can be done about that? I don't know, other than to recommend keeping it good-humoured, and within those bounds of decency that we automatically observe when dealing with someone face to face.
However many brave souls will carry on regardless, no doubt.
But to those who go all out abuse, don't ever kid yourselves that it does no harm to anyone!
