There may have been some minor grumbling, but it helped that the Freys did join in and fought in the Green Fork and the Whispering Woods/Camps and Oxcross. Victory is always good for morale, and since people kind of expect the Freys to be greedy schemers, it’s not surprising enough to get people riled up.
In AGOT/ACOK, should the Stark/Tully bannermen have been more angry at the deal the House Frey got? Those houses upheld their side of the feudal bargain and didn’t get any unusual rewards, while the Freys threaten to not join, or to not even allow the army to cross their bridge, and they get rewarded with two immensely valuable marriages to Stark/Tully heirs? How did Robb not have angry bannermen wondering why intransigence was being so richly rewarded and whether they should do the same?
