[former]

I remember my former HS coach (Ivan McGlone) was quoted by the Ashland paper in an article (about his career) in which he told a story about his wife complaining about a group of fans who sat in front her at games, and always complained about or criticized his coaching. He told her point blank that those fans had paid for their tickets, and had the right to voice their opinion if they felt the need to do so.
Having said that, that doesn't mean that every fan that complains about the coach(es) or the team knows squat about football or what's going on during the game. Some do...some don't. I'd be willing to bet that most coaches are secure enough in their ability that they don't lose sleep at night worrying about what the fans think.

Thats the problem. Fans want the coach to worry and the coaches could care less what they say and the coaches dont worry what is said because they know the fan is clueless to what really goes on. No matter how much I complain or what I say, it dont mean anything. The things I think a team should do may not be able to do it. Its easy to criticize and hats off to coaches who dont listen to what we as fans say.
