I hope the abuse received by Artell on Tuesday night acts as a bit of a turning point for the culture at BP. It’s been full of negativity for as long as I can remember including some of the most successful seasons in our history. A lot’s been said about what the club can do to improve the atmosphere but what can the fans do to improve the culture on a matchday?

- call out the mood hoovers who moan not stop during the game. We all know who they are and have all experienced their nonsense. They would soon stop if they were challenged every time it happened
- stop leaving early. What difference does it honestly make to journey times after a match if you leave early? The players on Tuesday deserved to be clapped off after a great unbeaten run
- don’t spend all game in the bar. Don’t quite get this one myself but the findus bar is often busy during the game. Get it down you and get behind the boys
- get behind the team when they are under the cosh rather than generating a nervous atmosphere around the ground

I’m sure there’s plenty more suggestions people can make. It would be nice to avoid the cliches of I pay my money I can act like a d1ck or ‘all clubs have them’

To be fair it’s not too bad . There  are just a few simpletons who think because they pay £25 it entitles them to behave like complete morons with a total disregard for everyone else

The fundamental problem with your suggestions is that people can say whatever they want as long as they’re not breaking a law by saying it.

I’m not asking for anyone to be arrested. Just to reflect on whether their match day behaviour helps or hinders.

How about half a season ban to reflect on their unacceptable behaviour?

Just tell them to shut up and get a few others to say the same.

Complain to the stewards that a few ard spoiling the game and upsetting our manager they might keep quiet if threatend with eviction.

In theory that's great but more than likely they are the kind of individuals who don't listen to the voice of reason.

It’s football, stop being so woke. Are we allowed to moan if a player makes a bad pass or doesn’t track back? Maybe we should be handed a fans rule book when entering
