Whilst i agree the original poster in this thread has proved himself to be a bit of a mug, how about the Warrington fan i'm quoting???

"All aboard the Wire glory train. Heading for Wembley and Old Trafford"

Good one, totally agree with that one, i know we will never agree on much but we had both had a lot of success over the years but it could be worse.... We could both follow the Wire

there's certainly some cringe worthy posts when we look back with hindsight,but the majority we're made with the clubs best interests at heart.
we all love our club and probably all believe at times that we know best,some a lot more than others.

surely that is the reason why no one that posts on south stander has of yet been fast tracked into the headingley hot seat by gh is it not?

ps i loved reading keith swiftcorns comments


bwaaaaaah

Why?

Absolutely no chance.

This is not a new phonemenon. It was argubaly worse in 2007 under Smith's final season. Most of our supporters and most of the posters on here have learned absolutely nothing from watching the greatest group of players in the history of the club show everyone how you play in September and october is really all that counts.

Funny how things change though. Last season didn't really go that well, and this season started worse - that's why a lot of people thought the squad was past it, as well as looking to BM as a reason for poor form. Was there anyone on here predicting we'd win the Championship this year up until the CCC final?

I do find all this gloating over past threads funny though. I for one am absolutely delighted to have been proven wrong. Hope it happens again TBH.

New coaches always need time for their players to adjust to their methods so it was harsh to scream for McDermott's head after one or two dodgy results.

I'm sure Brian is now sat somewhere with a beer in one hand and a cigar in the other with a smug grin directed at his critics like 'Norman Stanley Fletcher' and a few others.

You mean Humble Pie Eater.

I too am delighted to have been proved wrong. Only recently, however, have we seen a glimpse of the passion that typifies fans, coming from the usually bland face and considered, measured words that gave us so little confidence in the early weeks of the season. I thought, along with many others, that we needed a special spark. Brian Mc D was hiding it under his bushel perhaps? At least it lit up the dressing room, but I couldn't see it in the SS! Thanks Brian - you did a great job!

You never learn do you mate.

Only joking, have you guys never heard of banter?

Obviously.

Really nice.

I guess this thread would have been dragged up sooner or later...so I'll do it.


You're all moaning tonight. Well, you were all calling for the head of McDermott through most of last season...but he ended up having the last laugh.

Last season papered over the cracks. To many past her best. BM doesn't help with baffling selections and tactics. Hardaker can't play left side. It's obvious to all except him. The pack is beaten week in week out. Our much heralded second row are great with ball in hand but are much of a muchness. No nasty buggers in there. As for hooker!!! Burrow tried hard but offered no direction whatsoever. BM needs to look at himself, but so foes gawwy who likes things on the cheap to much

At the very least swap Watkins who has played LC successfully with Hardaker: the under usage of Hall is a crime. You're right about Burrow...not using Lunt was another crime that this time deserved the death penalty. As for a nasty bugger in the back row....Bailey should be a starter there every week.

Complacency from too many and too much suspected player power rules at the moment.

I'd drop Hardaker permanently from the centre position, as for me he's a winger. He was given an object lesson on centre play from Shenton last night, on how to draw a player before sending your winger over with a lovely back of the hand pass.

If the rumours are true re player power, then its way past time to thank them for past performances, and send them on their way.

Agreed.
Player Power issues can only cause problems. Too many of the old guard seem to be calling the shots. Great history, but as with Keef, no place for sentiment!

No pleasing you guys. Super League Champions 2011, and well done on that but it sounds like deja-vue. I will be honest though i would much rather have Shaun Wane and be in our position than where you are at the moment.

I would be truly unhappy if Wane was our coach.

What year is it?well done on 2012?

arent we alright heh?Central park forever,not even there.he's a brarmer this kid in't he?

Shaun Wane's inherited a squad in their prime though hasn't he?

Maybe but a team still needs to be coached week in and week out, and Shaun cant seem to do anything wrong these days. You will come good, you always do. Sorry about the mistake with the year, will have to alter that, wish you well of course but it will be our title again in 2012.

ok we'll let you off,but again?again meaning ?Dont you think you should be saying 'our title For a change'?After October 2011 and all other clubs fans lambasted you for all the statements you were making,and you have been quiet since then and have come back in late May Abeit with a bit more humility,but never the less 'it will be our title again in 2012'.Its not as though its a regular occurrance is it.Your title for change is more appropriate

Don't get that Tad. A season reaching the Cup Final and becoming champions is "paperiing over the cracks"?

If so, I hope the cracks remain and remain papered over forever.
