And well done for starting a new thread on this...

No problem, just thought I would make you earn your double time

You`re right, of course. Home form is far more important for the majority of fans. I was talking to a Quins fan at the game and they`re of a somewhat similar opinion!

Oh well. Story of the season, really. The few (well, actually a surprising lot) of away diehards get to go home happy/very happy/deliriously happy on several occasions - but the home fans trudge away 9 times out of 10 disconsolate / aggrieved/ totally fscked off.

I don't think there's any particular reason for it, it's just how things have worked out, but if all the home fans had seen all the away performances then I don't think things would appear even a half as bad. But (and as I keep saying) just about the worst thing you can do is consistently fsck off your home crowd and send them away swearing never again. Do it enough times and they'll eventually still feel like that the next day.

And no, I can't understand it either. At all. A totally different team performance to last week. I'm scrathcing my head that much now, I'm tickling my throat.

PS and for once I didn't win much money on the event, as I didn't have a big enough winning margin! I should have more confidence, I'm beginning to realise this now.

I agree to a point, results against Wire, Catalans, Celtic, Saints, Wakey and Quins away from home back up the theory that we've obviously had more success on the road. But there have also been some plenty of poor and lacklustre performances away from Odsal. Salford, Wigan, Cas and Hull KR are ones that I attended that immediately spring to mind that left me leaving the ground pretty vexed off.

I've seen all but 2 or 3 matches this year and still think things are pretty bad this year. I'm ready for 2010 already.. whether others feeling the same way will also return is perhaps doubtful unless our recruitment is extremely positive.

It was a good performance but Quins really were dire. Easily the worst defensive performance we've faced this year. Their reduction in performance from last week makes the Bulls seem a model of consistency.

But still a good morale booster, hopefully the Giants will deservedly celebrate their great win and we can finish the season with a flourish.

Excellent performances from Halley, Nero, Scruton & Lynch. And deacs best game for a while.

I would also highly recommend The Jersey Boys.

Aye, with a bit of luck they'll all go on a 7 day bender now and turn up either drunk or massively hungover. Although if we play as per normal this season, they may still win.

Echo most of what has been posted really.
We arrived as Quins scored their first and immediately I thought, oh god, how many down are we already......then was pleasantly surprised when I saw the score board at 12-6!!

For much of that first half, it was like the teams had changed shirts. Quins were doing much of what we have done all year, but we clicked, like really clicked. And when your luck is in, your luck is in - see the penalty attempt on the stroke of half time.

Other bounces of the ball, 50-50 calls were also going our way.

As someone else said; was it because we were more relaxed?

We need to win 3 of our last four now and take that into next year...

I made the same comment at the match. That it was like they swapped shirts after last week's game and decided to play in those instead

Great minds!

Heads up when the highlights are online please, cheers.

The tries were on the Sky Sports / Martin Offiah slot last night. Don't know if they get put on the website, or when...

I have to say we looked awesome on those clips

The usually do Boots N All anytime from Monday

Boots n All podcast doesn't tend to come out until Tuesday at the earliest. Best place to view them online early is the Super League site.

Living where I am in Bicester it was the first time I've managed a game this season, after being a season ticket holder for years. I was half dreading it but enjoyed every minute sat in the sunshine. Felt sorry for those who were late but the M25 is so unpredicable - I use it regularly and it ain't bad but the worst bit is always from Heathrow to the M1.

Hoping for a good finish to the season and roll on next year - if I can afford a reliable car by then expect to get up more next year

It was a good performance but Quins really were dire.

Bulls put in a great performance and deserved the win, to call us dire is a promotion we don't deserve.
