| I will never understand why fans think booing team off at half time helps the team?
If you get booed and yelled at when you go on lunch at work it would make you not want to go back in the afternoon surely?

| Sadly the crowd aren't able to sit down with players and review their work one on one. Booing someone at work would be a lot more honest criticism than most poor performers get at work.

Fans pay good money to attend surely they are entitled to comment on a performance. Are you suggesting the crowd be silent as the players walk off. If they have played well they deserve all the cheers they get but if they don't they need to realise the crowd don't think its good enough - you can't have it both ways.
If you went to a restaurant and the dish wasn't cooked you would tell the staff also if it was really good you would also tell them. Rugby is no different its entertainment nothing more.

| It’s just crowd psychology. Personally I think booing is childish, counterproductive and rude.
I highly doubt any boo boys would brave enough to boo a professional RL player to their face, but it’s alright in an unaccountable mob.
You could take the view that you can do what you want if you pay your money, but all you’re doing is venting without filters, you’re not going to make any positive change and in fact it’s embarrassing.
I notice champagne side Cas got booed yesterday against Saints too, fickle lot.

| The most British thing to do if we weren’t happy with the performance would be to “tut” repeatedly, and then when someone asks if everything is OK, we say yes it’s fine...

| I always expected us to drop a bit after the glory period. I knew it wouldn't last forever, we all agreed on that, but I didn't expect us to sink like this.

I think most fans would have no problem looking a player in the face and either congratulating them on a good performance or suggesting that it was the opposite. The problem wont be the fans it will be the players - the arrogance of professional sports people is both a asset and a liability
Cas are just flat track bullies - they have played two of the top sides and got beat easily - they are in false position. It should be a very interesting game on Friday.

| Quote: Brodie123 "Sorry chaps, but some of the signings that have been made some wouldn't get into most of the SL teams. Last year someone openly said that there was too much salary cap sat in the stands. This year already 3 players who last year was sat in the stands are again sat in the stands, the same three players, yet two of them were given a one year and two year contract respectively. This is a professionally run Rugby club, not some kind of charity. When people say booing is not acceptable, please think of this, A father earning little more than the minimum wage spends any spare money he has taking his son to watch Leeds Rhinos, the chap works hard all week doesn't earn much, gets paid little if on the sick and he turns up at Headingley to watch what so far has been served up on the field as rubbish. I don't blame anyone for booing, because if the players cannot handle criticism they should not be professional rugby.
Please remember some of these players are earning over £80k per annum. It also informs the Directors and the players to get their fingers out and start putting their bodies on the line for the team. No doubt some of the fans on here saying booing is not acceptable don't even go to the games.
If they lose on Saturday followed by losing next Thursday, the booing boys will be so loud you will be able to hear them in the city centre.
Not everyone has access to the Directors, but rest assured I give them lots of verbal when I catch up on match day.'"

| It's a good job some on here are not in charge of the club. There's plenty wrong, but most of it hasn't been identified on this thread.

| Bringing in a fourth coach in two half seasons isn't the answer with large parts of the playing squad still in place. And wholesale changes to the playing roster aren't an option at this stage of the season either.
At least we appear to have stopped the rot and are being competitive again. So long as they can keep this up the results will come. Patience and some lowering of expectations for the time being is what's needed by the fans - however frustrating all this is to watch.
