Will he get a barracking or booed? Some of our fanbase are still split on him.
 
Don't think we should be booing any player that has played over 300 games for us. At the same time I hope we don't start chanting "You Jack Bastard" every time he takes a corner.

Maybe a show of appreciation at the end of the game, which I guess also depends on how he deals with things as well.
 
I don't really mind if those who are big fans of him give him a warm welcome pre kick-off/after the game, although I wouldn't join in.

I would urge anyone thinking of giving him stick to ignore him instead. If he's got the kind of ego that it's been suggested he has, then being completely ignored would probably be the worst thing he could experience.
 
Perhaps the same response we gave former players years ago. Polite applause before (and if subbed like Jamal Lowe had a few weeks ago). The anything goes. The reception Tommy Craig got at the Vetch would be my benchmark. Perhaps the bigger question is if Frankie gets the JB chant.
 
How about we sing sod all about him at the beginning and during the match. Silence (to him) will speak volumes. And when we win, then give him a wedge of "Grimsey, Grimsey what's the score"

Barracking him during the match is just inviting karma.

In any event it's our own team who needs vocal support.

And yes I know if pigs could fly ....🐖
 
Give him absolute dogs abuse for 90 minutes. He's an opposition player trying to beat us and not to mention as captain of our club he put in a transfer request in the Jan window. F8ck him to hell and back the sideways and backwards passing safety first, shite set piece taking overrated gnome. Make the f*cker cry.

Or just beat them.
