Fans jeered because Postecoglou hung back behind his players when they went across the pitch to applaud the fans after the game.
The volume of dissent increased when he turned for the tunnel without making his way any closer.
Postecoglou then changed his mind, turned back and walked all the way across to confront the Spurs fans, where they booed and one or two hurled some choice insults.
‘They gave me some direct feedback, which is taken on board,’ he said. ‘I didn’t like what was being said because I’m a human being but you’ve for to cop it.
‘I’ve been around long enough to know when things don’t go well you’ve got to understand the frustration and disappointment.
‘And they’re rightly disappointed because we let a game of football get away from us. But that’s OK. I’m OK with all that.’
Asked about the ‘direct feedback’, he said: ‘Probably not for here.’
Postecoglou was more upset with the performance and the goal conceded, a header by teenage defender Dean Huijsen from a corner in the first half.
‘To come to Bournemouth and give them a goal like that is madness,’ he said. ‘Not just that it’s a set-piece but we’ve done that a number of times with balls arriving in the box.
‘It’s disappointing it’s happened again. It’s something for me to mull over and do something about.
‘We started well and were sort of controlling it but that goal allows Bournemouth to sit back and play the football they want to play on the counterattack.
‘It’s not like a one off. We’ve done that three or four times and paid the price.’
Bournemouth climbed above Tottenham in the Premier League and boss Andoni Iraola said: ‘It was a very good. We were not clinical and we have no regrets because we on but when we were missing chances in the second half it was a dangerous moment.’
