| So in terms of supporting them a few of us tried but majority are not interested and I have to say that I really don't blame them.

| You wouldn't be happy with some of those errors off your U14s Geordie. Heck, I wouldn't be happy with some of them off my U9s! How can a professional player stand there watching the ball dribble along in goal and fail to spot the fact that the attacker is going to score? It's going to be a very long, heart breaking summer.

| I agree and I don't blame people for giving up.
I saw the calls on here to get behind them and gave it a real go but about 20 people joined in and even then there was basolutely no reaction on the pitch at all.
We have said it all along, the players have to produce a product that people are interested in, we come to be entertained.
The pre match under 8s game certainly entertained me more, tries, tough tackles and a bit of biff but more than anything effort and a desire to do well.

There was not a lack of effort today, we defended our line very well at times, individual errors cost us dearly, in attack we don't have any halfbacks...well saying that Bridge is doing okay.

| All this about fans getting behind the players, it doesn't make a difference. A particular player won't even know a song is being sung about them unless there stood right next to them and not paying attention to the game. See numerous interviews with players, all they hear is noise.
Should be the players giving us something to cheer about, there paid to win games and entertain.

| Just because some people boo at full time does not mean that they are NOT real fans! The fans who clap are allowed to and fair play to them if they want to accept what we saw today, but some fans who spend 1000s pounds a year watching this side are still real fans and love the club, they just don't want to see what we saw today, which was a DIRE performance.
I'll still be at every game this season, supporting and believing in hope rather than expectation these days, but if i don't think we are good enough i might boo. That does not mean that i am not a real fan, it means i won't accept rubbish every week like we're getting at moment.
At the end of the day, this is the players jobs. What happens if you do your job poorly, you get moved on! I would be filling the transfer list up sooner rather than later as it is NOT good enough.
Certain players need to have a little look at themselves.

I have an idea why not (if they play bad) say nothing, just walk out or shout your stones of and try to gee them up

Because he has paid his money as others have and he is entitled to boo if he wishes. What other opportunity can he have to show his displeasure. Just because you may not wish to boo does not prohibit others from doing. Do you actually go any of the matches.

up until a couple of years ago WHEN I MOVED TO LONDON i went to every home game and tried to go most away games too FYI, your point?
oh yeah still get to a few games a season with a nice 400 mile round trip that enough for you.
Booing is counter productive (look for the definition of a FAN)

I went to every home game in 2006, 2007 & 2008 and some away matches. I simply cannot afford to do it anymore and when I am able to do so again, will there be any incentive for me to go again?
Not at the present moment.

| The only consolation for me today was that I wasn't surrounded by the usual chavvy gits that seem to frequent our "spot" in the South Stand.
Surrounded by "proper fans" for a bloody change!!!

alright then mate but as you aren't at the matches, how can you comment on the game when you haven't seen it?
understand you have a long drive so wont be at all games but how can you call people for booing a performance that you haven't even seen.
find it hard to listen to comments from someone who doesn't go.

the worst match i ever saw was at Quins the other week and i'll tell you what i didn't boo then even when King gave the 5 knuckle shuttle and regardless of what i see, i know what's right and whats wrong.
I didn't comment on the match but i can comment on pathetic 'fans'.
So i can't comment unless i go now (i like it )
I had it on the radio btw

| if you pay your money, you are entiled to an opinion. It's as simple as that.
Although i don't like the booing, I stood there for 80 minutes watching our pack tear apart the opposition pack, the same as we did at salford, and not take advantage, and it is frustrating but if the players want the fans' support it should be earned

I like you, you call it like me. I thought I was in the minority who thought BOTH halfbacks were poo.

| Quote ="Wire_Yed_79"i think we should start changing peoples attitudes on here.
if someone as a shocker then say
"today ----------- had a shocker he did this wrong ----------"
but leave it at that, no personal insults, no send em back to Australia and no sack the board.
Whether we like it or not we are now a team in transition.
That means we might do well BUT we also might not.
TS is getting people in and throwing people out.
On the getting people in side of things, it's easy to get people to come if they know that people are not going to be jumping on their backs and getting the camara phones out every time they have a pint glass in their hand.'"
A large majority of Wire fans have no patience. They want us out winning trophies tomorrow. They are not content to let TS start from the ground up, which is obviously what he's going to have to do. Unfortunately the majority who boo don't post on here so will continue to do so...

We were physically better that Cas and Salford. It's just when we go wide, we his the pivots, for all the pace to sapp out of the game. At Salford I put it down to having second row's in the centre's, but it was the same going to L. Anderson, King and Penny on the left today. Just doesn't seem to click like it did with Swann, Gleeson and Fa'afili. Missing a genuine scrum half?
