Blame Barcelona for that



As for Dominic and his loud PA, I don't know how we coped out in the streets. Somehow we managed to applaude, cheer and even chant without any help at all, and all in the right places!

Loved the good amount of booing when Lowes was announced



Get gone Lowes.

"If by coincidence you lose your child" that had to be the best line.

Overall it was great though.

"I've just had a text ....."

That's all I can remember him saying.

Oh, that and "My kids model clothes on the Warrington website ..."

Maggot.

Wolfette made exactly the same comment as me, why didn't you use her quote.

Because you have a personal vendetta against me haven't you, you sad git.

Personal abuse, weapon of the weak minded.

I believe you know all about that Cockney

i had a problem with that, i wanted to use the toilet, but wasn't intending to lose my child, could i still go to the toilets in that instance?

All those gobes stood at the top of the townhall steps should have been told to bugger off, the team should have gathered at the top of the steps and Morley should have lifted the cup from there.

It certainly wasn't one man and his dog at the homecoming was it Natters?

in one of the papers it said 50,000 lined the streets any ideal how many was there yesterday

i think it was Daliy Mirror

Not a personal vendetta, you're not important enough. You're just irritating. I simply used your post as you made the comment about the extra 15k supporters turning up at the HJ. Wolfette was slightly more vague.

So our average gate is approx 10k, where did the extra 15k come from and why dont they support on a regular basis?

I have no problem with them going to Wembley, I just wish they would offer a more regular support.

My point was Natters that even if the extra 15k did support on a more regular basis they couldn't fit in the HJ anyway.

This whole "I'm a real fan, I go every week" attitude really annoys me. Not everyone has the ability or the circumstances to go every week, it doesn't mean they love the club any less. Myself and Foz don't go to all the games. I've been to 2 this season. Saints away on the first night of the seaon and Wembley. Am I included in the 'fake fans' you're referring to? Our reasons for not going are none of your business but rest assured I love Warrington Wolves and have been watching them since I was 6. Until the end of last season I always had a season ticket. People like me shouldn't have to justify ourselves and our support to the comments people like you (not just you) make.

Come on love, stop taking things personally.
My point is aimed at the people who quite clearly NEVER go to games who went to Wembley.

Also Gatcliffe has said in the last week that they want more fans to come to the hj so that they can justify increasing the capacity of the stadium. The plans to do so are already in place.

If just 25-30% of the extra 15k who went to Wembley started going to the hj then the club would then have good reason to implement the plans and make the stadium better not to mention having all the extra revenue to buy world class players.

But wouldn't you rather we had 30'000 people there roaring the boys on to victory than just the 10k who go to the HJ? Haven't we been criticising Hudds for that??

You have missed my point totally.

I am absolutely amazed at the amount of people who took the time out to make the costly journey down to Wembley, whether they be old or new fans - it doesn't matter.

I just want the 'new' fans to come and support the team at the hj or at least come more often than they have been ie, not at all.

Quick Panties, put a complaint in!

I doubt the majority were 'new' fans. You don't have to go to games to be a fan.

A lot of the people of the streets would have been to either Wilderspool or HJ at some point. As Rugbychick stated, personal circumstances can dictate whether you can get to games or not.

I think the main point, is that we get some coming back. Remember we were getting 11k in the first two seasons at the HJ on a regular basis. The cup win may make some fans prioritise other things in their life to make it to the games next season (that doesn't mean not paying the mortgage

)

I'm pretty sure we will have increased gates next season not just due to the win but the expectation for next year under Smith.

Let the good times roll

I just like to make a point about the TINY TINY minority of brian dead idiots yesterday who decided to boo Kevin Penny at a VICTORY PARADE for the Challenge Cup.....

Go away you're not wanted pathetic isn't the word for you saddo's...

Not everybody can afford it, some have kids or horses to look after.

With a town that has a population like the one Warrington has its a shame that the Rugby Team only gets crowds of approx 10k.

I wonder what that is as a percentage of the population of Warrington?

Maybe the club needs to do more to promote the game to people who have never had the pleasure before.

Could they not have a deal for season ticket holders that if they introduce a friend to a warrington season ticket then they receive a discount on the price of theirs or something along those lines.

You're special...think you should run the club. But only when you can do some research and work out the percentage...here's some help...attendance divided population times by 100..answers on a postcard please
