have the fans learnt nothing from last season when Thorman got booed after dropping a bomb against wakefield i think then everyone booed him.

You could see the confidence drain out of him and he lost it for the rest of the season.

will it make the team play better :?: , will it help players confidence :?: , does it create a good atmosphere :?: , does it present the club or supporters in a good light :?:

will nathan Brown think they dont rate Brown at standoff, i will drop him next week and put our substitute stand off back in or i will go out and buy Lockyer :?: .

i would rather 200 fans there supporting the team than 6000 with half of them booing.

thats why i enjoy away games and hate home games.

If paying your money means you think you have the right to boo then i suggest you save your money or go watch saints.

At least wait until the end of the season to make a point because otherwise booing SERVES NO PURPOSE WHATSOEVER NOW OTHER THAN UNDERMINING THE TEAM AND THE CLUB.

RL isnt a business of paying RL players, its a business of entertaining people.


It might be a buisness to the RFL or the directors or the money men.
It may be a job to the players but for me it is a love affair that sometimes goes unrequited.

I still love them win or Lose.

im more bothered by our fans clapping opposing teams onto the field at the start of games...

hardly an intimidating atmosphere for the away team.. where else does this go on?

maybe our fans are getting just as complacent as the team at the moment thinking we can just turn up.. and feeling sorry for the away team having not many away support

I wouldn't boo the team, I might shout at them when they play as bad as Sunday but never boo them. As for clapping the opposing team onto the field, I don't see a problem. Creating an "intimidating" atmosphere can often lead to a team playing better cf Huddersfield at Keighley in the Challange Cup in 1995. To be fair if the other team scores a good try, or put in a good passage of play or make a good tackle, even if it prevents a try for us, then I'll applaud them, it's just curtesy.






Somewhere in the dust of time rest the bones of the Galilean
He who was spat upon. He whose face was marred beyond all human likeness
Somewhere buried among the lies of the past rests the tomb of Yeshua
Of he who was made God in a world without Hope.
And when this son of Joseph is found. What then will the Church of Rome say?
Prepare yourself for the day is coming. And men will say
"Blessed are the wasted lives who perished in the flames of the holy war"

I agree entirely. We have every right to be frustrated when the performance is poor, ( I'm sure the players don't play poorly on purpose) but booing is hardly going to inspire them to improve. Even if it makes the person booing feel better.

Also, I felt embarrassed when some fans cheered when KB found touch with his kick. Same thing happened at Warrington with Brett Hodgson when he caught a high kick after the Leeds game.

have to say the booing got right on my tips, but then i had some fella behind me that loved the sound of his own voice sat right behind me.

"run straight cudjoe ya clown" closely followed by "the wing was wide open why dont you go round em you muppett" was the general tone.

i found myself trying to cheer on any glimpse of something positive.

i just dont get how negative people can be we are top end of the table have given the top teams in the league a good run for there money we have a new coach who is new to SL his ideas and team is developing at a pace greater than any of us could have fairly expected before the season started.

yep that was a poor performance but we are gonna have them from time to time certainly leeds and saints have this season so i dont think we are bad company.

in comparison to the dish served up when my dad started taking me to fartown back in the early eighties we have come a long long way.
