I also remember Lee Naylor getting dogs abuse from our own fans after Reading equalised late in a 2-2 (I think) midweek game.
For me, it was all pretty mild in 10/11 compared to the final few decades of the twentieth century, but, having said that I'd not seen any bad treatment of a team and manager for about twenty five years, the two years we spent in the old third division at the start of this century were pretty bad because of the degree of expectation that had us needing to blow teams away in the first twenty minutes to keep the critics at bay. Players such as Spencer Prior used to really cop it from the fans back then (he was pretty crap for us mind) and good players such as Peter Thorne would have sections of the crowd against them.
