West Bromwich Albion fans turned on manager Alan Irvine during defeat at home to West Ham United.
Fans chanted 'Taxi for Irvine' as their frustrations grew with the Baggies having won just three times at home in the Barclays Premier League in 2014.
Irvine replaced Pepe Mel in the summer but is already having to defend his position and insisted they must stick together.
"It's not going to help, it doesn't make it any easier," he said. "The fans have come in and they support the team and have every right to behave in whichever way they choose.
"But we are a lot better and stronger if everyone is pulling in the same direction.
"I spent three years out of senior football and I certainly don't feel as if I don't want to put myself through it.
"It wasn't that long ago Sam (Allardyce) was going through all sorts. Name a manager and they have been through it at some point, it comes with the territory."
