When i came to my 1st game at Wilderspool many moons ago i don't remember the game (not got a scooby) i remember the fans.
In short, they were awesome. Singing from start to finish and that is what grabbed me, it made me think i support a special team with the best fans in the world.
At Wilderspool through the years we have had some shocking results but the one thing that always filled me with pride was the fans always stuck by the team.
Since the move to the HJ i noticed half way through our 1st season that the atmosphere had changed, it had lost something.
Now we are booing all the time home and away EVEN AT HALF TIME. Sometimes booing if the oppostition score the 1st try ???
Now we've all been guilty or slating players (sometimes warranted) but lets not let the players hear that. The coach knows who plays badly and with TS in charge will take appropriate action (Briers benched)
People are coming on here lately and absolutely hammering players for even minor indiscressions.
Briers gets slaughtered regardless as do Clarke,King,Monas,Penny(not even playing)Riley,Grix, all our forwards even moz's name is creeping in.
The only player that is a real attacking player and player of the team last season Hicks is now the latest victim due to missing A KICK
Now im not going to be a hypocrite i too myself have had a go at Briers,Monas,King and Penny but it's not getting us anywhere.
Spread the word, it's time to go back to old days of Wilderspool with our backs to the wall singing loud and proud win lose or draw and make the lads want to play not only for themselves but because they don't want to let THE GREATEST FANS IN THE WORLD down.
Fans that sing from start to finish like a rallying call to battle, that inspires players to give 110%. Where everyone that comes here says Warrington fans are the best, where players from other clubs think this is a club i'd want to play for
Spread the word, we want passion we want loyalty we want SUPPORT
Lets shame the players into playing fantastic rugby because they know that they have fantastic fans were they know that giving 100% isn't enough
Let's SING WIRE, Let's BANG OUR DRUMS AND RAISE OUR VOICES
I bloody love this club and i want to be proud of it again
We are Wire not the players,We are Wire not the stadium. Wolfies a man in a suit and Lord Hoyles just a man in the biggest chair but we are Wire.
Spread the word
SING, SUPPORT AND SMILE, WARRINGTON 'FANS' ARE COMING BACK STRONGER THAN EVER
SPREAD THE WORD'"
Well said!
It must be so demoralising to be booed, especially if you've given your all and probably already feel bad.
I'm in the North stand but a friend of mine tells me that there are sections of supporters in the South who aren't remotely interested in the game but are more intent on 'eyeballing' opposing fans and booing our team at every opportunity.
In my Wilderspool days the sensible members of the crowd turned on anyone causing a problem. That doesn't happen now because some people don't feel ashamed that they've gone too far and violence would probably result.
If we are supporters of the team, that's what we should do. Support the lads win or lose. That's the only way we can build a good rapport with the players and make them proud to play for the team and for us.
