Circulating on Twitter that Ben Mee mouthed “f**k off” towards home fans at the end.
Did anyone notice this incident

Hopefully he f**ks off soon he's been crap all season

If he did it would be the first example of passion from him or any other member of the squad shown this season.

He most certainly did.

Yes. Looked like it. There were some boos from the Jimmy Mac and some shouts in the lower tier. He tur ed round and gestured and shouted.

We have been called worse by our own players, we were called cabbages once.

What a ****

Unlike Sam Vokes who applauded all four stands on his own. Ben Mee seems like he has a chip on his shoulder this season. Going back to Europa League with Lindegaard. He was an arsehole with him.

At least he managed to string two words together.

Shame about the passing.

Pathetic if so. From both ends. To boo him and for him to respond.

I hope he did, some on here should heed his advice.

More perceptive than I imagined.

Doesn’t bother me.In the slightest. As long as he can take it when it comes back then crack on.

I'd have done the same listening to some of the crap spouting from the stands. Were going through a bad patch... You know what let's all get on our players backs that should improve perfomances. Numpteys.

He did. Frustration on both sides, but as a professional he needs to be able to rise above it. Disappointing from Ben.

Some on the fans behind me needed telling to F OFF ... Clueless , never played the sport in their life, pay 30 quid and think they can shout **** to a pro of his game. The tension caused by the fans was incredible, talk about putting the players under pressure. Clueless

I said in the summer that I felt he'd gone mentally. He expected to move on and get a final big contract. It didn't materialise and he's not been able to get his head back in the game. He really does look a shadow of his former self. A real shame.

Yes he did, but it was directed at some morons who thought that he deserved to be booed. He played well tonight.

What are the club thinking of ? Letting people into the ground whove never played professional football ? ..and letting them express an opinion as well ? Games gone mad !

Disgusting from the club captain

The difference is he is in the public limelight, on television, children are watching and is an ambassador for the club as captain. More passion on the pitch would be appreciated.

Once he waited so long to sign his contract we should have done what Arsenal did with Ramsey and told him to clear off. Pandering to him and making him undroppable is ridiculous, he's been awful this season.

I must have been at wrong match.... We'd just missed possibly the last chance of the game....he gesticulated and said his bit but I'm not aware of any abuse aimed at him. It was a strange end to the match.

Did he not show passion on the pitch tonight? I thought he played well one of our better players (wasn't too hard) definitely didn't deserve the boos and abuse. Not sure I'd want to put my body on the line for fickle shortminded fans like Dyche requires of his team. Great job all those shouting abuse and Booing that will help out performances in the next game for sure. Keep up the great work.

For a start he's not the club captain - and I think everyone has a breaking point. The lack of support, the abuse tonight from the stands was disgraceful. I can't and won't defend Ben Mee but I can damn well understand it.

He has very much been the club captain this season. As a professional he has to raise above getting involved with altercations with the fans.

He doesn't put his body on the line for the fans, it's the 50k a week he gets. Oh and he has to because he lacks a bit as a premier league player so tries to make up for it.

I hope his pace of speech is quicker than his use of a football at his feet.

If not it would have been nothing more than an inaudible groan and the intended target would likely have been flicking the kettle on at home by the time the last 'f' was delivered.

Tom Heaton is the club captain - and yes he should rise above it, but as I said, everyone has a breaking point.

Ben Mee has been bloody awful by the way this season so is probably best advised to keep his mouth shut.

I think sadly it’s just another example of how thing are unravelling. The rights and wrongs can of course be debated.

Like I say doesnt bother me one bit, but people will get a lot more pasty than that before they resort to telling a mass of people to **** Off

Thank god he isn’t trying to get the Brexit deal through Parliament he’d be diagnosed with Tourette’s.

It’s the abusive fans and the booers who will see us down

Laughable... and I suppose he put his head Infront of that ball at reading for the £50k he is on oh wait.... This lad always has time for fans after the game signs kids shirts and books outside the ground but no he doesn't give a damn about the club or fans just the money. Can't blame him after seeing how quick the fickle turn.

Lol

I’ve heard a lot of theories of why we could go down - but the fans who tried to get behind the team for parts of the game when our players couldn’t pass 10 yards properly being the reason is a special one.

brigante wrote:It’s the abusive fans and the booers who will see us down

Nothing to do with the players lack of ability or Dyche's tactical ineptitude then?

Correct. Never seen, heard so many pathetic part-time 'supporters'! Supporters should back their team through thick and thin but many of ours just want to winge.

why are half wits banging on about wages tonight ? the standard of fan on here is plummeting

Not been at his best this season.But certainly one of the best centre halfs most of us have seen in a Claret shirt! People are so fickle he was outstanding last season and deservedly got the plaudits,then to get on his back after a few loose games is pathetic.We should all be backing our team not name calling.Good on him if he has reacted I would be more concerned if he didn't!

Guilty for both goals one og and non marking of Clarke fir 2nd. Redeemed himself a little with pass for Sams goal but if he did swear at fans he needs dropping.

Mee has been poor all season other than a couple of recent games. Was poor tonight, lost his man for the second goal and his distribution was awful as usual. He is the one that should F*** off. All round disgraceful performance from the team tonight. Dyche seems to have no idea how to change it. Look like a team devoid of confidence who are going down. Can't see us beating anyone at the moment. The football is just awful to watch. I was very close to booing tonight which is something I never do. Won't be going to any more away games this season. There is no enjoyment whatsoever watching this awful Dycheball.

When the club captain, and them moderator of a fans message board understands and feels it's appropriate to swear at children In the stands, you know it's time to pack it in.

Like many who dare fans to "say it to the players face" regarding criticism, I'd more than welcome a player to swear ( or use that language) to my son . As he'd be more than "touch and go" for quite a period if time.

Disgusting from the club captain!

I didn't hear anymore whinging than usual tonight....and I've never seen a Burnley player tell the fans to f..k off before. Leighton James apart.

HOUSE!!

BEN MEE BINGO!!

Ben Mee headed a ball at Reading 5 or so years ago so he is beyond any form of reproach in some people's eyes!

Agree. He hasn't been the player he has been for us in previous seasons. First few games were woeful, I do feel his personal performances are improving but things like this won't help a player who clearly plays off passion and will to win.

The reaction of both fans and player in this situation the latest and perhaps most telling example of the 360 we seem to have gone through in the space of just a few months - we've completely lost the unique identity which made us stand out from the majority of PL clubs.

Don't know whats behind it but feels like someone somewhere has pressed the self-destruct button.

He's not the club captain, not as though that matters, and who are you suggesting considers it appropriate?
