Steve was asked what he thought...he responded that it wasn't the right area in his opinion. If that's a discussion, then yeah, it was "discussed".
I really don't get the train of thought that IF we have our own ground, the fans will come flocking in..... Remind me again what that film with Kevin Costner about the farmer making a baseball field on his land was called again.......

| Wont personally be bringing along a towel but will be sitting there in silence initially at the start.
Didnt think it would get to the point when I felt the need to e mail them my displeasure, but that
moment arrived last weekend. You never know somebody might just reply at some point in time.

| So were all these towels confiscated by the stewards? The only bloke I could see throwing the towel in was the Tom Jones impersonator.

| I had a group of 4 lads next to me and a chap behind them who had towels. Only waved them when the Broncos scored a try I think though.
And fair play to them all they were loud and supportive. Not like the foghorn in the back row who got told off when he shouted 'what a load of rubbish' - a lady a couple of rows in front of him told him he should be supporting the team and shouting encouragement. He went quiet for the next 20 mins I think

| The head steward was standing at the back of the stand with 2 mins. to go trying to spot anyone with towels and I assume direct his staff to intercept them. From what I heard him say into his radio he only found people with scarves. (They were only waving them.)

If you're talking about the loud guy then that's probably the best idea. Everyone goes silent when he pipes up waiting for him to stop, meaning the crowd actually gets quieter because of his shouting.

| In fact it all seems to have been a damp squid!
Still no sign of the review's conclusions though?

I reckon they've had the review and sacked the three culprits already

How dare anyone make any noise or do anything that isn't a polite round of applause at full time. I'm not sure what my reaction would be if someone attempted to tell me off for voicing my disgust at a lousy performance. I doubt the outcome would be a positive one however.
What next, telling a steward that someone was booing the kicker?

I've sat next to this guy for a few years over in the East Stand
half the time he shouts misguided drivel - normally along the lines that his mother could do better
But the other half he is spot on - rather than sit in silence and doing nothing he says what most people are thinking
he's very passionate about the game but can be a bit of a bull in a china shop
I'd rather be sat next to him than next to someone who just whinges to anyone listing
prime example on Saturday the couple behind me shouted to him that they didn't want to hear his opinion - then for the next 60 minutes they did exactly the same thing to anyone within earshot - classic

To be honest, I made him about spot on when he shouted 'what a load of rubbish'. There are times when the team, coach etc.. need to know the fans are unhappy - and yet in some games this season some people still applaud the dross that's been served up!

I bet there are plenty of dual code fans amongst them. And not a single exiled Northerner.

| I sat next to a chap who was doing the crossword puzzle in his newspaper. Quite a powerful statement I thought and without having to raise his voice.

Again with the personal attacks.....what's up rooster?
The review has resulted in 2 (that we know of) back office staff being "gone" and a brother of a player being hired to find more players....even though we are at the cap. You're the one who declared that according to your sources in 'stralia that it was over......if there was more to it, please let us all in on the news.
Only other rumour I heard was that the Chairman thought the players were lacking in fitness with an emphasis on stamina.....I await your more in depth update on what has actually been reviewd and what changes have been made...
