Ganson's actually a really nice bloke and one of our best refs imo
Having said that I know what people mean about hogging the limelight, I bet he's one of those myspace posing blokes :wink:

I don’t watch Ganson like a hawk and note down what he gets wrong every time he gets something wrong but Leeds v Wakefield he gave away far too many penalties - I saw less in the England rugby Union game against Wales unless I’m under delusions?

His worse hour had to be last year when he reffed saints against Leeds. Was told by a bloke (I don’t watch the crowd) that a couple walked out that night their where that disgusted.

I don't hate anyone.
Ganson is my least favourite ref for a number of reasons. The first and still the one that makes still me angry when I think about it, was on the 5th July 2003 when we played Hull FC at Griffin park. He missed a BLATANT pull on denis moran who was 100% going to score with the last play of the game.
After that, to be fair to him, I did begin to scrutinise his every move when he reffed us.

Another Leeds fan noted that as well. That Meli try was a disgrace.

It obviously did hurt if you remember the date. Can you remember the time too? :lol:






2005 Challenge Cup

To reconcile respect with practicality, what is the optimum speed for a hearse?
