Again thats poor - you need to come up with an example of where someone has played badly and the booing has motivated them to play better. Ronaldo got booed because he was seen to cheat at the world cup. If booing had a positive impact he'd fall over less in the box - he still does that.
To be fair to me, its hard for a Reading fan to come up with any examples because the Royals have been so good for so long that it is so hard to come up with any examples. Only a couple of players have been booed in the last number of years. And usually when a player is booed it is because they were Cr*p anyway and if they're rubbish anyway then they are unlikely to become good just because they were booed.
If Meaker was good at QPR, they wouldn't have swapped him for Osborn. Meaker was rubbish anyway.
Its better to ask fans at rubbish clubs if booing works.
Fans who have more reason to boo.
I have to think right back to our Elm Park days to come up with any examples and my memory is so bad, I can't remember that far back.
Meaker was booed but I never said he came good.
Gilkes was never booed but the South Bank always stuck a rocket up him and got him performing.
I can't think of any examples buddy.......... Sorry!
