I haven't really felt like a fan for a long time, but I have had plenty work that involved watching games, and I think there's room for the viewpoint of anyone who loves the game and has something worthwhile to contribute. They shouldn't be dismissed with such swiftness.
Fan is different from fanboy. Not all fans are fanboys. Fanboys blame the officiating every chance they get. Fanboys say "that wasn't even close" when they see the freeze frame of the third replay angle right after the first two replay angles showed that it was too close to tell.

Fanboys and fans in general do have something worthwhile to contribute but that something is not comments about officiating.
