| You said saying playing attractive rugby, not success, brings new fans. Hence my post. HTH.

| Wow, who'd have thought a slightly sarcastic comment would get so many peoples backs up! Still, it's given me a smile after a truly horrible performance today.

I wish I could, I have a horrible compulsion to go to games even if I think we'll get beat. If we got to Wembley I'd have to go and leave earlier than I'd like to. Not in a Wigan style but I have no interest in seeing others lift the cup.

| I always go to games thinking we'll get beat, Yed. That's just the pessimism in me unfortunately. I'm never confident about any games we play hence why I'm always more nervous than most during matches.

| That was absolutely horrendous. Three penalties for crossing? Headless chickens have more sense of direction. Take nothing away from Bradford, what they lacked in strength and depth they more than made up for with passion.
When you compare our preseason- a trip to Australia and the best facilities money can buy to the ordeal Bulls players have been put through it is an absolute farce.
NB- I tend to find those who criticise 'JCLs' and reminisce about the days of being one of twelve others in London one Friday night tend to be the people who forever call attendances at clubs such as Huddersfield.

The only thing I mention about Hudds is how pricey it is to get into the ground.

In 1990 I stayed till the death and soaked every inch of atmosphere from the Empire Stadium.
I sang "you'll never walk alone" with all the rest of the Wire faithfull. I could do this without looking up to the 39th step on the right of me.

Correct. And referring to them as JCLs is offensive and self serving. A fan is a fan whether they attend every game home and away or merely shout for their team from the comfort of their living room. Its all about which team you want to win above any other. Sadly there will always be the "I'm a better fan than you!" brigade which is enough to put anyone off attending even an occasional match!

Spot on. It really does hold this sport back.

| Probably due to the performance today making me slightly ticked off and touchy, but I too take offence at the 'JCL' comment. As a lad in the 70's I went religiously to Wilderspool for every game, and due to various reasons I didn't get to a game for good few years in the 90's and beyond. However. I still spent a my money at the club shop, paid each week for the past 25 years to Cashline and followed the club through various other media. I started going going back to games about 5 years ago which coincided with my kids leaving home etc; etc: Does this make me a JCL?

Nope, sorry. We can however admit you to the Fan Affiliation, Reseves and Trialists section of the board though. And If you are over 55 you can apply to become an old FART like me. I am not a true fan anyway as I don't have a Wire scarf.

Well, I did have...but it came off when I took the car through the car wash. BUT, I am going to get a new one, honest.

| My Dad had a "Follow Me, Follow Warrington" car sticker in the 70's. The logic of it always baffled me really, but then most things baffled me when I was a youngster until Debbie Harry came along and brought some sanity to my fragile little world.
I'm currently on my fifth scarf, incidentally. An "End of an Era" Wilderspool one which is as tatty as the old girl herself (the ground, not my Mum).
