| I'd love to give a quote from myself.
I think people who waste their time posting on other peoples forums when they have enjoyed a great victory are not only stupid, ignorant and arrogant but also slow witted.
I think they would be much better looking at their own very small willies and learning to like them because, win or not, their willies are still very small.

Don't forget, though, that Wire fans have also booed their team off the field on more than one occasion, staged sit-ins to pressure their coach into leaving and given abuse to Matt King individually. So while they cheered on the team on Saturday, they aren't angels, you know.

| Quote ="Durham Giant"Unfortunately you moved away from that into criticising the fans.
The phrase sing when you are winning comes to mind.
If we had got two flukey tries and seen the other teams attempts turned down by the officials we would have been singing and Wire would have been quiet.
Then everyone would have talked about how our fans picked us up and we would all have been on the Wire board slagging their 'Quiet fans''"
agree

| Quote ="anwar1983huddersfield"I thinik we just have to hold our hands up be honest and say Wire played well and we didn't. Also I would have liked to have seen our team out first to warm up, Wire looked professional from the start. To be honest we looked a little bit sloppy and too relaxed. Still, whatever the performance you have to sing and get behind the team.....in the end I see it like a battle of the town's...who's support is better, who are the more vocal and up for a laugh...yesterday that was the Wire support by a country mile. If a neutral from another country was in attendance yesterday, he/she would clearly think Warrington was were it is at and that Hudds is just a town of old prudes who don't now how to have a good time. We can take nothing away from Warrington's performance, they were so on the money and from the first until the last looked every bit the real deal.'"
Agreed. but we are all individuals and people shout when they are excited and expectant, we were down from the beggining wether that was the refs fault/video fefs fault or the players??? dunt realy matter, the masses of wire fans would not have been so loud had we scored first and kept that lead, Our group shouted and sung our heads off.

Imagine what would have got said by other teams fans if Hudds did that, they would be the laughing stock of the league.

I remember being at wembley 2007 when catalans took little support and yes i know they are thousands of miles away. but its a cup final, how many would lower league teams take if they got there? and when they did how many glory hunter threads would we have?? why cant everybody take a chill pill and revel in our great game

| it must be me but ive watched the game live and on replay and yes wire made more noise than us, but other than a couple of occasions they were pretty quiet too noisy than us granted mainly cos there was more than them, i chanted sang shouted throughout the game watched it back and couldnt hear much from either side to be totally honest other than a couple of wires, barmy and the warrington song once.

No it is not a swear word, just a derogatory and politically incorrect term for an individual with learning disabilities and or developmental disorders. Think on.

| Do not lecture me. You don't like it, fine. I don't agree with fasting, I think it is stupid and potentially dangerous but I'm not going to start preaching at you about it. So you think on. You are not a mod.

It is about you pushing your own personal opinon on someone else. You do what you want, it's up to you and I did not pass comment. If you are truly offended by what I say, tell a mod. It wasn't swearing, it wqasn't meant to offend anyone apart from small minded fool s coming to have a troll. FWIW I have been PM'd regarding the term, but ateotd it isn't up to you to tell me to think on or otherwise.
I don't tell you what to do or think or say.

| Well that's your point of view, mine is if I see a wrong then I'll try and stop it and at the very least point it out. I happen to work and care for people with learning disabilities and see the stigma and difficulties they can encounter from the general public and having seen the hurt it can cause you would surely understand my point. That's all.

| I accept your point. I live very close to a residential facility for people with learning diabilities, manyof them with Downs Syndrome, epilepsy and other problems. We regularly have specific nights at the local WMC for these lads and lasses so they can have some sort of social life and interaction with the local people. If you work in that field you might know it, it is on Deighton Rd, the name escapes me at the moment, but just because I use a word does not mean I demean these guys.

I disagree, Huddersfield have everything going for them, the decent Council built stadium, the 3 years they were not relegated, the merger with Sheffield and a very rich Chairman who invests over £1 million a year to keep them where they are. Add to that its a big town then they should have better support, end of.

| Alright well let's move on and forget it and fair play for getting involved and being part of something positive for your community, respect for that. I work for Leeds Social Services so am not too familiar with what is happening in the Hudds area. I don't know why you and I have clashed on here so much, I don't even know you and so it seems wrong to me. Hope we can have a virtual shaking of hands and move on?

I've been a Wire for 37 years now. Having also been to games as a neutral (Wigan, Leeds) I can say that we are far more passionate than either of those. The only ones I have seen with the same passion are Salford fans.
When things are going great, we are great. However when things are going bad we take it to the extreme, eg, Matt king, Matt Rodwell, Steve Anderson era. It seems that you can't have one without the other.

| Like Fifi and Wuzz and Wadski we wre in the top tier with a good view -but it wouldnt have mattered if wed had Take That`s PA --you wouldnt have heard our 7 voices !!
My take on this is this
They scored -after what I still consider a dubious pick up
We then had a try disallowed that after watching the recording looks Ok and endorsed by Jonathan Davis on commentary
We then score to level --but we would have been in the lead
It would have been interesting to see what effect that would have had on the Warrington chant and noise !! - sadly we`ll never know!
One thing I do know is this
At Warrington we kicked off the scoring - never lost the lead - and frankly though outnumbered were noisier than Saints -- and it continued
I know sing when youre winning comes to mind -- but its fact --and its not a total criticism
Leeds Saints and Wigan supporters can be exceptionally quiet when playing catch-up rugby - as Saints were against our depleted team the other Friday
Yes Warrington outnumbered us
They hadnt the distractions in their town of a football team playing the same day and at a reduced price entry fee -(a "gesture" - which after all KD has done for them - I find absolutely despicable )
I am informed that they even announced it at the previous home game that it had been brought forward to accommodate another "sporting event" - If true (perhaps someone could confirm" )its childish to the extreme in my opinion and an absolute disgrace!!!
Nevertheless -- I still feel that "we didnt really turn up as a team and some players were far below the standard they set themselves in the semis - but thats sport
But I dont blame the fans /the coach / or the team
And whilst we can "lift" the team - if leading- it shouldnt be a necessary contribution
Do you shout for Boycott - who then scores a ton
Do you clap Higgins - who then scores a 147
or Tiger who then goes round in 6 under??
The pride determination and guts has to come from within as well !!
Once out there -- the coach has little influence on the team hes trained all week --or the fans either
and some times - for whatever reason - it doesnt happen
Thats sport - thats life Otherwise underdogs would never win when their "big" opponents have twice / three times the support - (vocal or otherwise!!)
( EG Hunslet v Hudds- ???)
After watching the rerun several times again --we werent that far away but with the two disallowed tries for instance we would have been looking at a much lesser differential and even had Warrington playing catch up - thats how close it really was
Fate,lady luck, and a visually impaired official werent on our side - and boy would we have needed some noise to counterract all that!!
So lets scrap this self criticism - accept it wasnt to be -- and, despite the injury problems, pick ourselves up for the matches we still have to play
The benefit for a season ticket boost by winning some silverware is temporary "on hold" - lets hope we get a second bite at the cherry
Then the fans might really start singing Daz!!

Couldn't agree more, I won't bother going to watch Town anymore after a stunt like that. £5 to watch a game of football, it worked though as they pulled in over 12,000.

I would say generally with the apathy they dont! If we cant get fans along now I doubt we ever will much as it hurts to say this. My fear is that when Ken steps aside then what - I really fear for our future as a Superleague club and no one can say we havent had a fair crack of the whip. ATEOTD if the people wont watch the team what can you do?.
