Ian Foster felt Plymouth Argyle 'dominated from start to finish' against Blackburn Rovers and felt the half-time boos at Ewood Park reflected that.
John Eustace's side led 1-0 at the break thanks to a fantastically taken goal from Sam Szmodics. Their goal had led a charmed life, though, with Plymouth missing multiple chances to level.
Ryan Hardie, Bali Mumba and Mickel Miller all went very close with a combination of Leopold Wahlstedt and wasteful finishing ensuring Rovers led.
Despite being in front there was a section of fans that booed at the half-time whistle, something Foster has never heard before.

He felt that was a reflection of Plymouth's dominance, with the visitors coming back to equalise through Morgan Whittaker in the second half after Kyle McFadzean had been sent off.
"It was the very least we deserved," Foster said.
"A lot of people will look at the game, see the result, see the sending off and think we have only scored because they have been reduced to 10 men but before their goal and after their goal we have dominated the game literally from start to finish.
"The whole 95 minutes we have been the team on top, 20 shots away from, our xG (expected goals) is through the roof. The only disappointment that we go away with is we haven't converted more of those chances.
"I'm really proud of the players. We picked the team to dominate. We felt we could here and we did that. It was 66 per cent (possession) I think in the first half.
"I have never witnessed a team 1-0 up at half-time getting booed off - quite a unique thing to see and hear, but that just shows you the dominance we had.
"No halves are ever the same but the players continued to knock on the door and eventually we got what we deserved. We picked the team to dominate possession here and we did that.
"When you dominate the ball you are capable of then creating chances. We had a game plan here and we executed it marvellously, other than the final phase where we could have scored a lot more."
