This is why I never believe the rumours that go round. Rumours have always been easy to start and spread round the pubs, but now the internet is around it is even easier.
If the happenings behind the scenes were so bad, it would have been sorted. I'm going to touch back on the nostalgia piece again, when people have great memories about the late 80's teams, yet these kinds of rumours still went round then, and the team performed at a similar level to current Wire teams in the league.
If we lose, the fans get on players backs, yet IMO, we didn;t lose the other night due to lack of effort. Every time we lose it is down to lack of effort according to many, but could it just be that things like concentration, skill levels, fitness levels, tactics and decision making etc. are to blame?
Monas and King have been two of the biggest flops for years at Warrington IMO, yet I wouldn't question their effort.
Briers and Gleeson get a hell of a lot of stick, yet between them they have been one of the most dynamic attacking combinations in SL for the last few years.
It has now become accepted that Warrington have a culture issue, and the amount of times I have heard rumours from my mate who doesn't use the internet forums, when it is clear it has been started by the usual suspects is unbelievable. People take these rumours as gospel, spread them round, and then it makes it easier to believe it next time.
Bradford and Leeds have had their fair share of off field disciplinary problems, yet because they have won, there isn't an issue.
As a team, we just aren't good enough.
