Really? I take it you missed McGuire jumping into Richards off the ball (twice?) and celebrating a try where anyone who's ever played rugby will know he MUST have known hit the floor before his boot! Now let's weigh that agianst "the biggest cheater in the game". Care to let me me know the four things he did last night that make him a bigger cheat than McGuire?
TBH this is typical of the Leeds fans who post on this board. Funny how they use the 'we booed him for England because he cheats at club level' excuse whilst completely ignoring the fact that their own side contains some of the biggest 'cheats' (by this definition) in Rugby League. Laughable.

you can't expect them to bring 72000 people to a rugby game. Only 2000 of the population of Leeds speak english. The other 70000 have kebab shops to run.

You have to hand it to these morons, they are right up there with the Wolfs in the Who's Got the Stupidest Fans in RL Stakes...
Even if they're right... which they aren't... all they've done is establish that there away support is even more embarrassing, given that Leeds is apparently a giant metropolis and the capital of the North....
On the misleading figures they're quoting my adopted city of Sheffield is bigger than Manchester. Having lived in both places I can tell you that it is a joke to suggest Sheffield is bigger than Manchester. No one I know in Sheffield would be so stupid as to suggest that. Leeds fans on the other hand seem quite happy to claim Leeds is bigger than Manchester.
It's time to put on music, it's time to light the lights, its time to get things started... its the Whinos show tonight...

While I agree it was not a try at all. I would question your geography. You do realise Leeds is in west Yorkshire and is one of the bigger cities outside of London. A lot more urban than Wigan, and not everyone is a farmer?

| He is a cheat anyway. He celebrated despite knowing he had dropped the ball. Cheap shots on Tomkins all game as well. Rugby Gods must have had their say.

| There is no way that Maguire's effort was a try last night and I cant really see how anyone can complain about it. They have got cause to complain though about one of Richards tries shouldnt because the pass by Carmont was a mile forward.

Agreed. (Though racism doesn't have an attractive side).
If the poster was suggesting however that the only people in Leeds who work hard and own businesses are immigrants/from ethnic minorities then he may have had a point (though exaggerated) that was wrongly put - the main problem with this country is not with immigrants, who are normally hard working and well educated, but with native Britons, who are far too often ill-educated and idle. Native British scroungers vastly outnumber overseas abusers of this country's welfare system.This would however apply to Wigan and everywhere else in this country, not just Leeds.

Heard similar sort of statements from EDL, nf etc...
To say only 2000 Leeds population can speak English and the rest are working in kebab shops is not innocent statement at all. You may think it is innocent but most genuine people should see through this
We play and watch rugby you are the better team and deserve to be miles in front of us, but the comments you made above have no place on these boards

Can argue all you want your stereotype shows up a inherent racist view.

So, saying that a vast majority of the population of Leeds are foreign nationals is racist? Nope, that's a stereotype
Saying that that majority of kebab shops are run by foreign nations is racist? Nope, again that's a sterotype.
Saying that Leeds have a crap, dirty rugby team with a crap, dirty ground, and fans who like to cause a bit of trouble? That's fact mixed with generalisation.
Racism would be saying "there's too many XXXXXXXXXX in this country and they should all die". Which is a statement I do not support.
I won the argument cos "ah doo talk inglish proper lark", Wigan won the game, and Lancashire won the War... wind ter neck in with yer "my doodie dont stink" attitude, an opp it.
Nuff said

| anyway... one way or another, it would never have been a try. And he proved how shallow he is by celebrating the fact... Was he celebrating cos he genuinely thought he scored? If so, he doesn't know much about the sport... Or was he celebrating because he thought he'd pulled a swift one on daft sod in the middle

Nah, but let's get one thing certain... McGuire showed his true sportsmanship when he took Pat Richards down last year. The team in their entirity showed it by shaking the posts while Pat was lining up to take the penalty... Sam Tomkins has been mostly clean this year, I haven't watched the game back yet, but I'm sure as I am man that Leeds were by far the fithier team last night.

The top statement is from someone who has never played any sport at the top level. I have and most people would agree if the roles were reversed a Wigan player would have pulled our player down.
The bottom statement I am actually going to agree with you, we were the dirtier team last night.
