"Bigger and better club".
Let's see how this ends up.

Not really sure why he was booed? Played well for us as a young loanee and don’t think he’s been a dick?

Do we just boo any player that doesn’t spend his whole career with us now?

I think it shows a lack of class on our part - did Sunderland fans boo him last season? He was good for us and probably had very little say in his move to Leicester. I'm sure a few on here supporting his booing were the same people slagging off those that gave Maatsen the same treatment last season, even though that made a little more sense given his comments about Burnley being such a step up for him. Personally I think the best thing would have been just to ignore his presence completely.

Thick comments. If any other loan player is coming here they might as well not bother then.

When parent clubs are deciding the development path for a young prospect I dont think the reaction of the supporters when he leaves to club he's loaned to is high on the agenda mate.

Barring you, I don't think anyone gives a fuck.

He said in his interview in their programme that he was excited to see what kind of a reception our fans gave him and that he was expecting it to be hostile so i’m sure he would’ve been expecting it

Was just a bit of banter. As someone mentioned - he came over and got some applause. For anyone associated with Leicester to get applause is above and beyond as far as I’m concerned.

there was a bit of booing and a bit more when he was subbed

All teams do it to players who once played for them

As has been said he'll not give a rats about it

Yes to be fair it did come across as pantomime booing, rather than really aggressive hatred that can be dished out occasionally.

It's our perogative to try and put off opposition players. It did seem to rile him a bit and he was pretty average overall. Seemed strange he was played at left back and maybe we didn't exploit him enough!

I believe he was the LCBack not the full back as they played with a back 3 same as us?

It is classless and usually ends with custard pie on the people who do it. He’s on loan, why do it anyway. Character building?

Whilst I wouldn’t have booed him myself I certainly wouldn’t have applauded him wearing that fucking shirt .

Yes agree. But with some of the halfwits we have in our fanbase and away at Leicester I am not surprised it happened.

Still pathetic though. He did a great job for us last year and ultimately he was not our player and is not Leicester's. He is just a young man learning his trade who is being professional and doing a job.

I was there, booed him, he joined our rivals, what do you expect. Leicester would do the same if it was rolls reverse. During the game its fine, after then you can give respect, but unlike Giles he didnt come over to our fans and show respect

edit : seems he did at the end after I left, applauded all of our lot at the end

That’s the way I saw it. It was good to see him interact with our players and MR before the game. I’ve had plenty of mean battles on the field and a laugh and a beer after a game.

Thought it was much classier from Leeds fans when they chanted Whelan is a Leeds fan. Supports the player and disses the opposition. Not so much one greedy bastard for MacAllister.

The pearl clutching because an ex player who now plays for what some see as a major rival got a bit of pantomime abuse is spectacular.
