If anyone I blame Daddy Cool, he ordered the extra coat of paint on the uprights!


Fine margins between winning and losing, the beauty of any sport.

I don't waste money on something I don't own!!

Michael Platt is a free agent.

Yep - hitting the posts is rare so to hit them twice. The posts got in the way when Matty Ashurst dived in.

Exactly what I was think both leaving the ground and reading the rubbish some have churned out. I will be at Hull and as proud as punch of our side including Scott. Those that will be speaking him to him; tell him the sensible majority are right behind him. It's one of those things lad! Show your great ability next week and lets take it to the last weekend and a 'quarter final' v Wigan!!

Actually now I've thought about this, maybe Trin77 and NGB4C are right. I think Grix IS to blame for our League Position.

I mean how many times is he just going to do his own thing and pass the ball to someone to score a try. You'd think he'd learn but no he keeps running those stupid lines to jump in the centre so the opposition can't work out what he is going to do and then without any thought for the fans, just passes the ball to the wing, right where the guy can catch it.

And to be honest he isn't alone.

What about BJB. I've seen him run it in like a forward so many times this year and at least 3 times I've seen him just disregard possession and not even bothering to try for a quick play the ball and just running through tacklers right to the other end of the field. It's just crazy.
That Wood as well. Playing Leeds. What the hell does he do. Not follow the script and let them win like always. Oh no he pushes through tacklers embarrassing international players by the way, I mean they play for England damn it, and then just casual as you like hands it off to a fast lad just cos he can.

We wouldn't be in our league position without them doing that.

And what about those close games.

Williams kicking a goal from the touchline, to win the game against Huddersfield. A draw would have been fine thank you. We should just send that guy home. We certainly wouldn't be in the position we are in now without that kick. He did it at Salford too. Close game. That nice lad O'Brian kicks 3 goals. He has to go and kick four. He's only a young lad. What a way to treat him.
Caton-Brown..........twice, not once but twice scores a hat trick. That Grix helped him. Sometimes he really had to try hard to get the ball to him. Pah!
One time he started encouraging the young lads too getting that Batchelor to score the winning try against Salford. We don't need people like that leading our young guns astray.

Nope those tries definitely caused our current league position. Don't they even think about us fans at all?

I'm starting to wonder if Grix actually talks to the other players to get them to play like that. Sack him I say. No place for that here.
We could be looking at that Championship league leaders trophy next year if it wasn't for him. Idiot.

Then that Carter bloke goes and signs a new lad. First game, he scores two tries. Not team tries, just goes and does it on his own. Come on Mr Carter. Have a word with yourself.

But most of all, I blame that Chester bloke. He get's the job just cos he played a bit and lives near by. Then he has the gall to get the players passing the ball all over the place. To be honest I find it really hard to follow the ball. It was much easier when we did 5 drives and a kick. You knew where you stood then.

Yep. We are where we are because of those guys. Dead right Trin77. Glad you spotted it and outed them. We need more fans like you.

Ted Richardson had a lot to do with us being in and keeping in Super League but I doubt that excused him when he later sold the ground.

lol. You see it your way I'll see it mine I guess.
I thought it might lighten the mood. Clearly not.....................I'll get my coat.

Yeah fans like me who buy a season ticket year in year out, go to almost all away games plus spend money on merchandise and clothing in the club shop.

I don't rate Grix end of, or one or two others btw. They weren't clubs queuing up for him when hudds got rid. But I'm entitled to my opinion whether in the north stand or on this forum.

And equally others are entitled to tell you your talking utter guff.

And that's what we call democracy.

Fait point. I probably shouldn't have put the last bit.
I'm not questioning your right to be or value as a fan.
Just wanted to give our season a bit of perspective.

as a outsider with no axe to grind, the times ive seen grix against us or on sky ive always though he wasn't to bad, not a world beater but a good steady player, I suppose every team has a scapegoat,

Don't know who Trin 77 is but deary me what a fan with his year in year out season ticket and his opinion either on this forum or in the north stand.Somebody should nail him to the north stand and face him East.

To be fair in hindsight was a bit OTT with my original and subsequent postings. Just angry and frustrated with a late defeat after a great effort.

Just imagine if we were battling at the other end of the table ??
Some fans need to get a grip.

Trinity are still in the mix for a semi final spot, utterly unthinkable before the start of the season and although we lost to Saints, the result has changed nothing in the grand scheme of things, apart from keeping Saints in the mix.

We still have the squad that got us into this position who, with the exception of Johnstone (injured) and Walker, are fit and good to go again on Thursday.

Just think what it will be like when we can no longer make it.

Some will be sharpening their knives, instead of enjoying the ride and on the basis that we havent been in this position for 40 years, it's time realise where we are and put ALL our efforts into supporting the club, team, coaching staff and players and hope that we can get 2 points on Thursday and prolong the journey.

Come on Trin !

Don't know who you are, don't care either.

Correct. Nothing excuses that.

To be fair to who certainly not Grix, people understand your anger and frustration you don't have a monopoly on it we all feel the same as you do, difference is most of us are a bit more understanding than you seem to be, quite a few on here leave it while the day after before posting giving them chance to give a reasoned response, maybe you could do the same then your bitterness will just come across as disappointment.

I don't have to be fair to Grix. He's a professional player who made a schoolboy error that cost us the game. Regardless of any quality play previously that's what happened. Gareth Southgate had a fine game against Germany in Euro 96, what's he remembered for?

So you agree that it was right that Southgate was castigated and he and his family were abused for a mistake?

You've had to go back over 20 years and a different sport to find any sort of comparison to your Grix out campaign, wow how bitter are you.

As far as I'm concerned Scott Grix is one of our own - and we applaud them when they do something amazing, we should
support them when they make a mistake.

Simple as that.

And that's the difference

By all means be upset, as we all were, but taking one incident and calling for a change is just not understanding the situation.

There's many examples that was just a well known one. Not bitter at all thanks. For what's it's worth there was worse shouted at the ground by others than anything I've posted on here.
