Silverwood has overtaken Alibert for the worst refereeing exhibition this season imo. 5 tries disallowed and at least 2 looked like they should have been to me. One Wigan try was from a certain forward pass and another was a bit dubious.


Well done to Godwin today, I thought he was outstanding (for the first time for us). Does anyone know why BJ wasn't playing?


Also whoever booed Hood if you post on here can I have your reasoning?

I'm sure he made a few tackles at one point.

Too right about that try. Miles forward from where I sat, which was across the park from it. But both sides were trowing forwards not picked up - just a pity - once again - that one in the opposition favour led to a try.

And too right about Hood (you talking about half-time?). People round me thought it was the troops being booed - could have led to some nasty incidents, misunderstandings like that. Don't think it would have upset me if there had been, to be honest, since it was extremely disrespectful to the guys in uniform. Where were these brave booers at the fans' forum?

Yeah at half-time. The boos and "Why don't you keep walking Hood ?". I think many of our "fans" don't realise what he has done to keep our club out of the $hit

A well-known and respected senior guy at the club said to me before the match that some people just don't want to listen. I suggested on one of the T&A Rantathons that maybe some people who are hacked off with the situation and want to know what really happened or is happening should have a chat with Duffy, or email Hood. Like they both said at the Forum, even... Provided the tone is reasonable and responsible, I'm sure they'd get a reasoned reply. OK, its bound to reflect the club position, but maybe some people just don't want to hear some inconvenient truths?

To be honest, although it tends not to achieve very much and serves usually only to make the booer feel better, its still someone's entitlement to show their feelings in that way if they so wish. But they picked a bloody inappropriate time to do it IMO.

I feel guilty when I boo, but sometimes I feel like I have to do. I cheer and clap them when I feel they have played well and put lots of effort and I boo and jeer them when I feel theyve played poorly and haven't put the effort in. Fair is fair in my books.

There is nothing that has happened to this club to condone the booing of Peter Hood during the service to recognise what those young men have done for this country! Imagine if they thought it was aimed at them

That said, I thought that was the most entertaining half time for ages. My arms still ache from the clap athon and the drummers were ace! More military based entertainment I say - next time do a military tattoo style race across the pitch

with cannons.
aimed at the away end.
maybe against Leeds

Edited for topicality.

I'm not mentioning the referee but he's no longer on my Christmas card list.
