First of all, what a waste of a thread, but as we are here

If we are going to compare sport to work, supporters always make the mistake of thinking they have a say in what the players do.
We are not employers, or even managers. At best we are customers. I know we all have opinions and some expert some not, but we have no actual say......apart from not watching any more and costing the club money....in the same way a customer of Sainsbury can choose to shop at Morrisons.

We have no say in what they do in their private life in exactly the same way customers at Tesco can't go tell the girl behind the counter not to buy that shade of eye-liner!

To be honest I'm struggling to find a way of explaining it better than "don't be stupid".

I get a bit pee'd off when players have a laugh with the opposition straight after the hooter when we've been thrashed.


I don't see that very often these days though as I'm generally in the car driving home by this time.



Bit over the top expecting them to beat themselves up all night.

Hope the original poster was with an adult whilst in the Red Kite.

As i said in the title of the thread, IM MY HONEST OPINION. Now I understand why its the same old faces on here week in week out, if you have an opinion against the club/ players you get slated for it. They are over paid and over rated IMHO. Think only 3 or 4 would get into any other SL side, thats how poor I think we have become over the last dozen games or so and I find it hard to see where we will get anymore points this season

I agree with your post, but had to take issue with that part; in my view, supporting a sports club makes you more than just a customer - it makes you a stakeholder, and that relationship is a bit more complicated than a purely commercial one.

In general though, I think you're spot on; it probably helps to remember that for the majority of these lads, playing for WTW is a job of work. Most of them certainly don't love the club in the same way that we do.

Not by me old pal, i've given up defending anyone but myself.

£72 my familly shelled out on sunday, hope they enjoyed the night cos they ruined mine.

if it makes everyone feel better all the cas team was out round wakefield on sunday night celebrating

Yep, saw a few of em in Mustangs.

Yep. If you could swear on here id put what a few people i was out with said to them. Rangi Chase took the most abuse

Mmm bet that made them feel really big!

i saw several of theplayers in morrisons buying toilet rolls on monday, HOW DARE THEY ATTEMPT DO DO FOR THEMSELVES WHAT CAS HAD SO CONVINCINGLY DONE TO THEM ON SUNDAY AFTERNOON?

im enraged, sack the board, bomb glasshoughton, etc etc

We have the problem with Cas players, At Xscape, But come on, Its the night of a game, They can do what the hell they like

If you came home from work, After a hard day, And a mate says you fancy a beer in the pub

Your going to turn him down and hit the bottle at home ?? Get real, They are doing a job, And the night of a game is the one time they should be allowed to do what the hell they like, Win or Lose


For the record, The Castleford team had about 30 take away meals, And 6 cases of beer delivered about an hour after the game in celebration.

disgraceful

Hope they left you a good tip.

Zing!

Not at all, I was laid on training field when boxes full of food, And the beer was taken to the Marquee for them

Thats Widders sorted, what did the rest eat



They earned it good luck to them.

The Claws Dancers look like they enjoy a bevvy and a calorie or too as well.
