Moyes disgusted by treatment of Kean
The Everton boss left Ewood Park at half-time during the 2-1 defeat from Bolton on Tuesday night after listening to 45 minutes of abuse aimed at Kean.
Blackburn fans seem more interested in barracking their manager than getting behind their players with Moyes dismayed by what he witnessed on Tuesday night.
“I walked out at half-time,” the Everton boss admitted. “I couldn’t believe the criticism they gave their manager.
“If they had supported the team as well as they had shouted at their manager I think the team might have got a result in the game. The Bolton supporters really got behind their manager and their team if Blackburn supporters had done that it might have helped them.
“I am a football manager and it could quite easily happen to me. I was disgusted with how football supporters treated Steve. The only way I could show it was by leaving at half-time.”
Moyes has had his own critics to deal with at Goodison this season but was taken aback by the venom aimed at Kean.
Blackburn are now owned by the Venky poultry firm in India with Moyes believing that it’s time they showed face to help Kean out.
The Everton boss added: “Steve stood on the touchline the whole night and took the barracking, never hid from it.
“He was big enough to stand there and take it and that says a lot about him.
“Sometimes on these occasions the owners need to step forward and be seen – come out and tell people exactly what is happening so the supporters are aware of it.”
