We asked for your views on David Wagner criticising fans who booed his substitutions during Tuesday's 4-2 win over Watford at Carrow Road.
Here are some of your thoughts:
Stewart - I would like a new manager. However, I think not everything Mr Wagner does is wrong. Clearly the fans didn't understand that Josh and Onel were struggling as they don't have all the info. Wagner is aiming for the playoffs so, rightly, he doesn't want to risk Josh being out at the end of the season when it really matters.
Jeff - I booed last night (Wagner, never the players) and I will happily admit that in hindsight I was wrong. It was an emotional reaction to perceived negativity from Wagner (exacerbated by the 2 points lost at QPR). Wagner had the right to respond but I worry he took it too far. Credit to the players for getting the win.
Steve - His views are valid, but he should have a tougher skin. Having a pop at fans never ends well.
Keiran - I get it, it’s nice to boo anything. But the fans weren’t aware of fitness issues at the time, so how are they supposed to know? Wagner could’ve just explained the subs and called for unity, instead he goes down the route of many at the club and takes a pointless pop at the fans that only enflames relations between the club and fans. Stupid mistake.
Joe - Wagner deserves more respect from the fans, especially on this positive run we’re on. He’s been poor a lot this season but the fans must back the team if we want to make the play offs.
Jonny - Totally agree with Wagner!
Mik - I fully support David Wagner’s comments after the match. As supporters, even if we don’t like the manager’s decision, we have to support the players. If it backfires then we can express our frustration at the end. Well done to the players for an excellent result!
Tim - Wagner had good reason to make his substitutions of Sargent and Hernandez on 55 mins. He needs to preserve the squad for the rest of the season and not push players past their limits. But some in the crowd are just itching to boo at any opportunity. It's a shame. The players clearly support the manager and so should we.
Richard - Has Wagner forgotten why the fans turned on Dean Smith? (Because he had a go at the fans). Fans pay their money (and providing it's not abusive) they are entitled to say what they want.
AJ - Fans deserve to be heard. Wagner may not agree with what was being said, but based upon the previous performance against QPR I think it’s justified. His comments reminded me of the AGM and what Delia had to say. I think this shows the division between the club and supporters.
