We had a good time, and no it is not patronising, its i getting behind the lads.
And If eastmonds injury was serius, ie on a strecher etc . then we would shut up and clap, but we still clapped his twisted ankle of the pitch.'"
Maybe i was being a little harsh, but theres getting behind the team, singing, and then theres cheering every single tackle you make in the first 20 minutes, it was as if you were shocked that your team were able to make a single tackle. It was your cup final (and thats no disrespect to Barrow), so i suppose it was expected.
It can be serious without needing a stretcher, that should be irrelevant. Its not the fact that fans cheer when a player goes down injured that does my head in, its when they know its a serious injury and they jump up and down shouting 'Get In', like a few Barrow fans did at the side of me.

A few years ago, a couple of Saints fans went onto the pitch at Wigan. Everyone has their idiots including us.

I have read this thread with a rye smile on my face.........See I have been to many Stains & Wigan derby's and your comments regarding Barrow fans is amusing to say the least. There is a debate going on about what constitutes a serious injury and whether it is appropriate to cheer when a player gets injured right ? Well I ask this, Was it appropriate for the vast majority of ~ 9000 Stains fans to cheer when Lee Mossop got knocked out on Good Friday and then continued to cheer when he tried to gain his feet, bearing in mind that ANY bang to the head is potentially life threatening ? Erm............No I reckon !
Whilst I dont want to appear as if I am condoning the behaviour of a few Barrow supporters I must say I have witnessed some appaling 'Chav like' behaviour from Stains fans for years, so to have a go at some over exhuberent Barrow fans is a little hipocritical to say the least.
Get over it. ALL clubs have the odd numpty and will probably continue to do so !

I witnessed the scenes of some sts fans fighting with stewards and basicly anyone else who wasnt one of them a few years ago in the grand final v leeds,did i think all sts fans are thugs ,no i didnt no one was tarred with any brush in my mind then again i didnt have any blinkers on.

18821_1298880800.jpg [quote='Fishsta"']I've always thought of McGuire as a good player, and I wouldn't normally wish injury on any player, but there was a certain hint of poetic justice to that.
[/quote]
Another classic:
[quote='Fishsta']You forgot to take off the "Saints Reduction Factor" when calculating the ban.
Standard suspension / Saints Reduction Factor = Actual ban for Saints player.
Therefore (2 / 3) = 0.666
0.666 < 1 therefore actual ban equals "less than 1 match".
Therefore ZERO.[/quote]

Did you see any of our directors behaving like one of Barrows did yesterday,or is he above criticism.

You see when you supplement stains for Saints I kinda think youve got an axe to grind anyway.

Uncle Des is above any criticism, he is the only reason Barrow are where they are - his money!
Barrow fans will call this jealousy - you bet, wish we had a man who will pour his money in, salary cap anybody???
But what happens when Mr Moneybags leaves and he will one day, he is not even a RL fan he is a footy fan, Man U I believe???
Where were these Barrow fans about 4 years ago when we went up there and there was hardly anybody at the ground, yer they were bad but we stuck with our team back in 2003 and 2004.

| The Barrow chairman's reactions were disgracefull to say the least. Real mard ass it seems he is for some reason, he must have though this men stood a chance to win? Or maybe he was miffed the bar had shut for the 2nd half ? Very bad taste from the chair.
