IRELAND INTERNATIONAL JAMES McClean was the subject of home fans’ boos as Millwall beat Wigan 2-0 in the Championship last night, amid a hot-tempered encounter that saw three players sent off.
It is not the first time McClean has been singled out by opposition fans, after he outlined his reasons for refusing to wear a poppy last November.
However, the Ireland international sought to respond publicly to this abuse after last night’s disappointment.
On Instagram, McClean wrote: “Hard to take that defeat, alot [sic] of clear cut big decisions didnt go our way, as for the abuse from the big hard crowd do me a favour godsake me misses [sic] gives me a harder time.”
The defeat left Wigan seven points from safety and all but relegated with three games to play, meaning the winger may have to be content with League One football next season.
