Don't think you can stray on to here making up stories >24 hours after the event. And don't try the old 'for both sides' routine either. If you want to have a go at the officials you have to make up a separate thread. And the game still needs to be fresh, take a look at this classic by the Master, posted at half time:

In a very poor weekend for official abuse Wakey make a familiar late play by trying to blame Alibert for their inability to beat mighty Salford, but this week's award goes to Widnes, thanks to Denis Betts' carefully thought out suggestion that players ought to be able to verbally abuse referees without being sent off, following the misunderstood Gareth Charnock's latest dismissal.

As I prayed Leeds did stuff the inbred hillbillies & true to form it was all that tiny ginner Farrell's fault for carelessly failing to keep a hold of the ball in the tackle, sorry I observed the incident incorrectly, the ref missed a blatant ball ripping out by Watkins & that incident, & that incident alone (apart from the others the ref missed or awarded incorrectly to Leeds), changed the whole course of the game & handed it to Leeds on a plate.

Anti Scots racial prejudice duly noted....must be picking it up from that Sun-reading butler..

No its Tigs that reads the Sun, apparently - it gets delivered in the middle of the Grauniad so no-one can see, someone at Tot Towers told me. Apparently the Telegraph is too big to conceal that way...

We bribe the delivery man to sneak the Butler a copy of Socialist Worker in with the weekly Fortnum & Masons hamper.

Farrell is Scottish as well? I didn't think he could get any lower. A doppleganger for Eddie.

So just to clarify...

Is a thread of 10 pages consisting of 3 people moaning worse or better than a 5 page post with 20 people moaning?

And does a coach moaning about the ref trump all fan threads?

Just so I can join in. I like to know the rules

Well, you open a can of worms and can never tell just what will come out.

No you can't get away it with so easily. Gi**er is code for Scottish, [iactual[/i nationality is irrelevant.

Worms?

Stung by recent groundless suggestions of humility the Warhorse of Whinge, the Jamie Peacock of Protestation, Ferocious Aardvark, launches an almost one-man expostulation against cheese eating surrender monkey favouritism. But it’s not enough, in a last minute quite literally Wide to West & JVT scenario the Bulls are robbed by Child’s callous crucifixion of Classy Cas*.

*And that marvelous performance puts Classy Cas in joint first place with the Whining inbred Wigan hillbillies, with 2 victories, who'd have thunk it?

Well if this were a boxing match the ref would be stopping the bout in the first round & handing the victory to the Whinos. But there is still a lot of scope for a whingefest this Easter, hopefully a Saints victory with a last minute penalty will send the inbred hillbillies into meltdown. It's refreshing to see Bulls fans in favour of letting the game flow & nothing more than a mild ticking off for a spear tackle. I have a feeling I will be returning to comment on that magnanimity later in the season a time or two.

A tackle doesn't need to be a 'spear' tackle to be against the current rules.

Whinos were unbeatable in round 9 despite a whimper of protest from the legendary Wakey. This weekend was the weakest by far, only rescued by a classic single post from Fergus on the Wakey Whingers forum bemoaning Poore Justin's latest indiscretion.

That makes it tighter than Adey's wallet at the top, with Whining Inbred Wigan Hillbillies, Wakey Whingers, Whinos & Classy Cas all on 2. It's all to play for as we approach the half way mark.

Hey now! Admittedly I am a bit of a munter but I am a bit more pleasing on the eye than that ferret faced weasel.

Should be plenty material for this thread today. Here's your first one Tim Roby has been let down by te RFL. Putting that little turd up for public ridicule is unfair on him. He clearly does not possess the qualities required to referee an under tens hopscotch match so to ask him to do superleague is setting him up for a very public fall.

Count me in for a whinge too. And surely I can get my bonus points too for my early whinge in the week. I said that we would get penalised for daring to tackle Tomkins and thus it proved.

Wigan fans are without doubt the biggest whingers.It's always someone else's fault when they lose

I was sat in the main stand at Bradford today and I have to say that the Bradford fans took wingeing to a whole new level. Right from the kick-off they were determined that Roby would have a bad game in their eyes. I agree that he missed some forward passes, offsides and lying on. If he had blown for all the offences then Wigan would have scored 50! Take off your blinkers and blame your own team instead of the ref!

Wigan would have scored 50? You saying Wigan deserved more than 16-8 pen count. No way did Roby cost us the game (I've not see anyone say he did)

But we've had Roby 3 games in a row at home and he is just incompetent! He lets blatant pens go, then will blow one up that no one can work out. He is so out of his depth. He is clueless.

Roby didn't cost us the game, we lost to a better side and we just shot ourselves in the foot with basic errors. But that doesn't mean fans can't be frustrated for complete incompetence. The pen flurry at the end was a joke!!

Congrats on the win, superb support from you lot and good luck rest of the season.

As an outsider <Batley fan> i have to say that the Wigan fans are by far the biggest moaners about all things RL,They clearly have a chip on their shoulders as to why they are no longer the top dogs dominating the game and winning all the silverware

Apart from that though, he did ok? You are agreeing with us then, you can see why he annoys us so much.

No arguments with the result at all from anyone. Have you seen otherwise?
We were sh11te in the 1st half. Embarrassingly so at times. You can't gift a team of Wigan's quality that much possession.

But still no excuses can be made for Roby.

After watching Ropy Roby today i think we can rightly have a good whinge

What I found amusing was the way that Bradford fans shouted FORWARD at every opportunity and mainly when it wasn't a forward pass! Then kept quiet for every forward pass from a Bradford player! I know you won't agree but I actually thought the ref had a good game despite being quite lenient with Bradford's lying on and offsides. The sending off shouldn't be such a surprise. He had just issued the team warning for persistent penalties!

WOW and you say we've got blinkers on? Bradford messing about at the PTB!!!??? What were Wigan doing??
