You’ve got to understand that booing is a reflex action for Eagles followers, like sneezing. They see something, anything, and they boo it. I saw a nice young man in a Boy Scout uniform helping an elederly lady across a street the other day, and a bypasser wearing some blue and yellow concoction started booing them.
And it’s not just any old boo, the Eagle’s boo. It’s a high pitched, keening sound, like a convocation of Nazgul. I can hear it coming from the Barnettdome here in Bayswater.
In any case, I wouldn’t make anything of them booing Morrison. Eagles supporters all vote Liberal. Those of them capable of filling in a ballot paper anyway.
