In regard to the OP, you can't let them get to you. I started to last night but ended up realizing they (the fans) were idiots. I had a team getting blown out, a very bad partner, and terrible fans in a small quiet gym. Every call some fan was yelling at me and I was making all the calls [emoji19]. In a loud gym, would never have heard it and it wasn't to a point of getting the AD involved, though she was standing right there if I would have needed to. I started to think "am I missing a lot here" until we had a shot hit the top of board and come back down in play and all the monkeys started howling for oob. At that point, I realized the idiots didn't even know that rule and to stop sweating their opinions. All said, have confidence in your ability to be a neutral arbiter and don't worry about the idiots howling.
